Getting Around Pakistan

How to travel....

"A suicide bomber on rickshaw kills 13

SAIDU SHARIF — A renewed wave of violence struck yesterday in small-town Pakistan when a suicide bomber on a motorized rickshaw killed 13 people at a security checkpoint, raising fears the nation is sliding back into a period of relentless bloodletting.

The bigger and more outrageous the cover story....

The blast — the second major attack in Pakistan in less than 24 hours — occurred in the Swat Valley, where Taliban fighters battled government soldiers for months last year. The attack in Saidu Sharif also wounded 52 people (AP)."

Better get more security checkpoints and increase operation, cui bono, Pakistan?


Maybe I should take a plane, huh?

"Pakistani jets pound Taliban hideouts" by Associated Press | March 15, 2010

PARACHINAR, Pakistan — Pakistani fighter jets pounded Taliban hideouts near the Afghan border yesterday, killing 17 insurgents, local officials said....

More innocent souls offered up over damnable lies, readers.

That is the way I read it all now.

Orakzai is the base of Pakistani Taliban chief Hakimullah Mehsud, who officials believe was killed in a US missile strike early this year.

The Phantom of Pakistan

The group insists that he is alive, but has not provided any evidence.

Doesn't seem to be a problem when it comes to AmeriKan newspapers and their bullshit though.

Violence has surged in Pakistan in recent days as militants — thought to be part of a loose network of Islamist insurgents fighting the US-allied Islamabad government — launched a wave of suicide bombings. The attacks have killed 88 people in a little more than a week.

Oh, now it is a "loose network." No "Al-CIA-Duh," huh?

On Saturday, a suicide bomber killed 13 people at a security checkpoint in the Swat Valley in northwestern Pakistan.

Why not mention the motorized rickshaw?

Elsewhere in Pakistan, suspected militants tried to blow up a NATO oil tanker yesterday in the southwestern province of Baluchistan, near the Afghan border, police official Zia Mandokhel said.

Yes, we SO RARELY READ about SUPPLY LINE PROBLEMS here!

How can that be when the war always seems to be going so splendidly?

A bomb, planted in the truck’s undercarriage, misfired, causing a hole in the tanker and an oil spill, he said. A civilian was injured.

Incompetent insurgents!

The incident occurred in the border town of Chaman along an important route for NATO supplies heading into Afghanistan. Militants regularly target trucks taking supplies to US and allied forces in Afghanistan.

Yeah, I'll be heading that way later.

But for now.


"US missiles kill at least 4 in Pakistan" by ASSOCIATED PRESS | March 22, 2010

MIR ALI, Pakistan — Violence also flared in other tribal areas yesterday, with helicopter gunships pounding Taliban hide-outs in the Kurram and Upper Orakzai tribal regions, killing 28 militants, officials said. Kurram official Rasheed Khan said 16 died in that region, while Upper Orakzai official Shabbir Gul said 12 died there.

"Air strikes killed 61, Pakistan reports" by Associated Press | March 26, 2010

PARACHINAR, Pakistan — Pakistani military air strikes killed 61 suspected militants in an area near the Afghan border yesterday, including dozens at a seminary where Taliban commanders were believed to be meeting, officials said.

Yeah, BOMB a SCHOOL, why don't you?

The jet fire rained in two spells during the day in the Mamuzai area of Orakzai, a tribal region where many Pakistani Taliban leaders are believed to have fled to avoid an army ground offensive farther south. Alongside the religious seminary, a mosque and a school were targeted, a local official said.

Then they are WAR CRIMES, sorry, Pakistan!!!

So YOU GUYS also have a S*** GOVERNMENT like us, huh?

Two intelligence officials said the seminary was a main center for Tableeghi Jamaat, a nonviolent Islamic missionary group. They spoke on the condition of anonymity.

Then this is BIG TIME MURDER!!!

And "nonviolent" Muslims! Who ever heard of such a thing in the Zionist West?

The center was targeted because a group of Taliban leaders was believed to be there in the afternoon.

And IF THEY WERE NOT!?

Some four dozen people died in the air strikes in and around the seminary, while 13 others were killed in morning strikes at the two other sites.

So the Pakistani military and government are just LETTING the MILITARY HARDWARE FLY, huh? AmeriKa must be replacing it all soon.

The officials said all 61 were suspected militants. Independent confirmation of the death toll or the victims’ identities was nearly impossible because access to the tribal region is restricted.

Orakzai is considered a major base for Hakimullah Mehsud, the Pakistan Taliban’s top commander, who is believed to have died in a US missile strike in January. The Taliban have denied his death, but failed to show evidence he is still alive....

I'm tired of reading the same horse shit day after day, you?

Orakzai and a neighboring tribal area, Kurram, have witnessed numerous air strikes over the past few months as Pakistan tries to catch fleeing militants.

With missiles?

Yeah, why risk troops?

"5 soldiers killed in clashes in Pakistan" by Associated Press | March 27, 2010

PARACHINAR, Pakistan — Taliban fighters seized a security checkpoint near the Afghan border, sparking clashes that killed five soldiers and 32 insurgents in a region where the army is pressing an offensive, officials said yesterday.

With all the missiles and the months-long operations, how come nothing ever improves, readers?

Many of the dead insurgents in the Orakzai tribal region were Arab and Uzbek, said Major General Tariq Khan, the commander of the Frontier Corps, a major force in the battle against the Pakistani Taliban in the northwest....

Oh, government said?

How many were CIA assets, major?

Khan said the operations in Orakzai were aimed at hunting Taliban insurgents who had fled a large offensive in South Waziristan. That operation has been praised by the United States, which says fighting extremists on the Pakistani side of the porous border is key to winning the war against the related Taliban insurgency in Afghanistan.

Yup, the MORE BLOOD the BETTER as far as AmeriKa is concerned.

The army said the clashes started when security forces tried to recapture a checkpoint taken Thursday night by militants in the Kalaya area. Khan said 32 militants were killed. The army said five security force members, including the officer, were killed in the fighting, which ended with the military regaining control of the area.

According to the lying military. That is the way I read an AmeriKan paper now.

Orakzai is a major base for Hakimullah Mehsud, the Pakistani Taliban’s top commander, who is believed to have died in a US missile strike in January.

The guy gets more mention dead than he ever did alive.

On Thursday, Pakistani fighter jets bombed militant targets elsewhere in Orakzai, killing 61 militants, according to security officials.

Yup, just stack 'em up and let God sort 'em out, right?

And it must be a Muslim government because they need revenge:

"Pakistan army kills 22 Taliban fighters" by Associated Press | March 29, 2010

PARACHINAR, Pakistan — Pakistani troops repulsed a Taliban attack yesterday on an army base and bombed two militant hideouts close to the Afghan border, killing 22 insurgents in a region where the army is pressing an offensive, a government official said.

The fighting occurred in Orakzai tribal region, where many militants are believed to have fled from a major operation in their former stronghold of South Waziristan.

The official, Samiullah Khan, said a group of militants attacked the base with rockets and automatic weapons. Security forces retaliated and killed 10 attackers. Military helicopter gunships later bombed insurgent hideouts in nearby Chapri Ferozkhel area, killing another 12 militants, Khan added.

I hate to say it, but it sure looks like PAKISTAN is LOSING the WAR, doesn't it?

The government says more than 100 suspected militants and five soldiers have been killed in fighting in the region in the last week. Officials have said the militants killed so far include Uzbek and Arab nationals.

The region has been the main base of the Pakistani Taliban commander Hakimullah Mehsud. A suspected US missile strike is believed to have killed him in North Waziristan early this year. Taliban have denied that, though they have failed to prove otherwise.

How many times are they going to repeat that one?

Also in the northwest, a bomb exploded in a shop selling movies and music in the city of Peshawar, Police Chief Liaqat Ali Khan said. Four people were wounded in the attack.

Another FALSE FLAG, huh?

Many Islamist extremists object to music and television, which they consider un-Islamic.

And yet they RUN WEB SITES and USE PHONES, huh?

Yeah, after a while the BULLSHIT starts running into itself.

Scores of shops selling movies and music have been attacked by the Taliban in recent years in the country’s northwest.

Honestly, I'm tired of the lying, Muslim-hating Zionist propaganda passing itself off as news.
