"100 die in Pakistan bombing; Explosion hits market as Clinton visits" by Riaz Khan and Robert Burns, Associated Press | October 29, 2009
PESHAWAR, Pakistan - Suspected militants exploded a car bomb in a market crowded with women and children yesterday, killing 100 people and turning shops selling wedding dresses, toys, and jewelry into a mass of burning debris and bodies.

Another false flag? Who does routinely bomb baazars and mosques?
"Now stop and think here for a moment. All revolutions depend on public support. Revolutionaries try to first win the people before they take on the government. So, no revolutionary goes out and murders civilians in cold blood. Did Washington and his men just mow down a marketplace of their fellow colonials for the heck of it? No, they did not. Washington and the Founding Fathers knew that their revolution to build a new country needed the support of those who would live in that country. This is true for every revolution in history. Therefore, these acts of terror being blamed on the insurgency must all be fakes, committed by intelligence agencies working for the governments to be blamed on the insurgents in order to destroy public support for the revolution." -- Wake the Flock Up
It is what I say EVERY DAY!

The attack in the northwestern city of Peshawar was Pakistan’s deadliest since 2007 and came as Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton visited the country to offer support for its fight against a strengthening Al Qaeda and Taliban-led insurgency based along the Afghan border.
Clinton was a three-hour drive away in the capital meeting Pakistani government leaders when the bomb went off in Peshawar. Her trip was not announced in advance in Pakistan for security reasons. The bomb was directed squarely at civilians, unlike many previous blasts that have targeted security forces or government or Western interests.
There is your MSM TELL!
While no one claimed responsibility, the bomb appeared aimed at undercutting public and political support for an ongoing army offensive against militants close to the frontier and showing that the government was unable to keep its people safe.
As noted above, it is the COMPLETE OPPOSITE!

And CUI BONO?
The shaky, US-backed government said the bombing - the latest in a series this month - had strengthened its resolve to press ahead with the assault in the South Waziristan border region, a militant stronghold and a global training and operations hub for Al Qaeda.
Yeah, Pakistan, you are next up for occupation!
At least 60 of the dead were women and children. Most security analysts said the attack could backfire on the insurgents and lead more people to inform on them.
I don't think so, wishful propaganda press: Pakistanis See Conspiracies
You can fool Americans all of the time, but Pakistanis.... NOPE!
“He who kills a Muslim has no place but hell,’’ said Mumtaz Ali, a wounded 19-year-old who was studying in a Muslim school attached to a mosque that was damaged in the attack. “We are taught the way of the prophet. We are not taught to kill innocent people.’’
The United States believes fighting the insurgents on the frontier is vital to defeating extremism in Pakistan as well as in Afghanistan, where Taliban militants with links to those in Pakistan are waging an ever more violent campaign against American and NATO troops.
And CUI BONO? Pakistan's puppets are now strengthened in their resolve?
Of course, PLASTERING the countryside with PREDATOR DRONES is JUST FINE -- certainly not a VIOLENT CAMPAIGN, 'eh?
Underlining the threat in both nations, Taliban militants in suicide vests stormed a guest house used by UN staff in the heart of the Afghan capital yesterday, killing 11 people - five of them UN staff, including one American....
You SEE WHERE this is ALL GOING, right?
A two-story building collapsed as firefighters doused it with water....
That sentence almost appears that the press is trying to infer that buildings can collapse from fire. Of course, if it wasn't a steel-framed building it could have happened.
Clinton was a few hours into her first visit to Pakistan as secretary of state when the bomb exploded. “I want you to know this fight is not Pakistan’s alone,’’ she said at a news conference that many Pakistani TV stations broadcast alongside images of burning buildings and wounded victims. “These extremists are committed to destroying what is dear to us as much as they are committed to destroying that which is dear to you and to all people. So this is our struggle as well.’’
She makes me ill.
Standing beside her, Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said the attack would not break the government’s will.
And CUI BONO again?

Arrogant US Misses the Message From Pakistan’s People There has always been in American foreign policy circles a virus called arrogance, caused by the hereditary assumption that Americans know better than others. Surprisingly, this does not always prove the case, but the condition seems highly resistant to treatment, even by experience. A vocal part of the Pakistani population clearly doesn’t want the United States in their country, and it doesn’t even want the aid the United States is sending.
"More than one hundred innocent Pakistanis killed in one day, more than two hundred in less than a month. Attacks linked to our own and America's failed Afghan policy. Attacks supported by anti-Pakistan forces in the region and not just unknown 'extremists'. Children left without parents, a nation terrorized. And the response of our political elite? Dinner, toasts and merrymaking in Islamabad. Was a reception for a foreign guest more important than sharing the grief of your people? A shameless foreign-backed ruling elite.

"Passports linked to 9/11 seized; Clinton faults Pakistan efforts to catch Qaeda" by Nahal Toosi, Associated Press | October 30, 2009
SHERWANGAI, Pakistan - Pakistani soldiers battling their way into a Taliban stronghold along the Afghan border have seized passports that may be linked to 9/11 suspects, as they confront an enemy skilled in operating in a mountainous terrain with endless ways to wage a guerrilla war.
Ha-ha-ha-ha!
9/11 passport ‘found in Pakistan’ Here is another perfect example of Pakistan government working to please the US by helping them justify everything that Obama and the rest have said about this being the “same Al Qaida group that attacked us.” This is pure fabrication, just like the 911 hijacker ids being found in near perfect condition in rubble that had basically disintegrated. The only thing that ties every player in this mess together is their CIA/ISI connections. They call their own network “Al Qaida,” pretending that it is something separate from the CIA.
Did these float out of a fireball, too?
It was impossible to determine whether the passports are genuine....
My suspicion is they are NOT! (Sound of toilet flushing)
The United States has maintained for years that South Waziristan and other parts of the rugged frontier have sheltered Osama bin Laden and his senior lieutenants.
Yup, WAVE the DEAD GUY at us all!!! That is SO PLAYED, MSM!!!
US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, visiting this country yesterday, said Pakistan squandered opportunities over the years to kill or capture Al Qaeda leaders responsible for the Sept. 11 attacks. “I find it hard to believe that nobody in your government knows where they are and couldn’t get them if they really wanted to,’’ Clinton said in an interview with Pakistani journalists in Lahore. “Maybe that’s the case. Maybe they’re not gettable. I don’t know.’’
Oh, SHE is a REAL PIECE of WORK!!!!!
This is OUR TOP DIPLOMAT?
"As an alleged diplomat, Clinton displays all the sensitivity of a bull elephant in rutting season.
First of all, Al-Qaeda is simply a fantasy cooked up by by someone at the CIA. The word, in Arabic, means, "the base", and is also a slang word in Arabic for "toilet". No self-respecting terrorist group in their right minds would ever name their movement with a word like this.
Secondly, lecturing the Pakistanis, like some brittle old schoolmarm, isn't going to help thaw relations any. In fact, such a lecture, which I'm sure was accompanied by a negative wag of a finger, is bound to make matters worse instead of better. A calm, quiet meeting - away from the cameras - to talk about common goals and how to achieve them, would have been the order of the day.
This Clinton's hissy fit here was all about US grandstanding and arrogance, not about true diplomacy and alliance-building. I hope that Pakistani civilian and military leaders understand that Pakistan is about to become the next target/victim in the US's "war on terror."-- Wake the Flock Up

Wow, MY AmeriKan NEWSPAPER sure CENSORED THAT, huh?I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M SAYING THIS, but CONDOLEEZZA RICE had BETTER TACT!!!
Maybe our spies can TRACE the NEXT TALIBAN PHONE CALL, 'eh? At least find out what tower they are sending from.
The military yesterday took foreign and local journalists for a first look inside the largely lawless territory since it launched a ground offensive here in mid-October. The US-backed operation is focused on a section of the tribal region where the Pakistani Taliban are based and are believed to shelter Al Qaeda....
So we are ACTIVELY INVOLVED in this?
Although the military spent months using air strikes to soften up targets in South Waziristan, nearly two weeks into the ground offensive it has captured only a few areas, none with significant strategic value. The army has seized weapons but is still trying to secure the main roads and regularly comes under rocket fire....
So this was a lie then, huh?
Pakistan’s tribal belt, a semiautonomous stretch of land where the government has long had little influence, is usually off-limits to foreigners. In recent years, as the militants’ influence has spread, even many Pakistanis dare not venture here. The tribal regions are some of the poorest, most underdeveloped areas in the world and have long been guided by traditional codes and councils. The Taliban have slaughtered hundreds of tribal elders in their rise to power....
This kind of one-sided, biased "reporting" has me near tears here.
They are NOT KILLING EACH OTHER like the LYING PAPER says, readers!!!
The military is slowly capturing isolated hamlets as it encircles the small town of Kaniguram, its next target in the push forward....
But the Army can't take any towns, and is slowly advancing, etc, etc, etc.
What F***ING LIARS!!!!!!!!!!

Also consider:
"[The highly touted system for executing selected individuals is really no different from any other terror bomb. The fact that American operators use these drones to detonate Hellfire missiles in the middle of mosques, or funerals, or in homes, or in crowded vehicles shows a total lack of concern for killing dozens of innocent people who happen to be friends, relatives, or complete strangers to these targeted "miscreants." Killing a dozen or more for the sake of killing one man is no different than throwing a large pipe-bomb into a crowded theater or church. The use of large bombs to kill one man instead of acting responsibly within the accepted legal norms, doesn't demonstrate American technological prowess, it demonstrates cowardice. America has adopted nearly all of Israel's terror tactics in fighting this war, targeted assassination by drone happens to be one of the worst of them.
But we made even bigger mistakes, we embraced the entire racist Zionist philosophy of oppression that projects the opposition as less than human, mere livestock (goyim). Seeing those potential victims as cattle or vermin justifies using technological overkill to prevent risking the lives of any soldiers while exterminating them. The notion that American or Israeli troops' lives are more valuable than the lives of the innocent people they kill is an ugly racist policy. It must be easier for the little geeks in military uniforms playing with their joysticks in Nevada to murder dozens of Pakistanis if they dehumanize their targets, as cattle, or Hajis, or towelheads.
Pakistanis and Palestinians are humans beings, no different from the racist American and Israeli supremacists who plot their deaths to wage a fake war of terror. Think of the outrage that would be vented across this country if the Taliban or the Iraqis had nearly invisible little robot planes and they were lobbing bombs into military barracks, or into our churches.]" --There Are No Sunglasses
Yeah, we would be ready to kill. We would nuke them in a nanosecond.That commentary left me in tears.
Please, God, stop this madness.
