Pakistan army believes NATO attack planned

"ISLAMABAD (Reuters) – A senior Pakistani military officer said a NATO air strike that killed 24 Pakistani troops on the border with Afghanistan last month was pre-planned, newspapers reported on Friday, comments likely to fuel tension with the United States.

Major General Ashfaq Nadeem, director general of military operations, also said Pakistan, a strategic U.S. ally, would deploy an air defence system along the border to prevent such attacks, the newspapers said.

The newspapers said he made the remarks to a Senate committee on defence on Thursday. Military officials were not immediately available to comment.

The Daily Times said Nadeem described the attack as a plot while another newspaper quoted him as saying it was a “pre-planned conspiracy” against Pakistan.

“We can expect more attacks from our supposed allies,” Nadeem was quoted as saying during his briefing, The Express Tribune reported."

Nolo:

The bombing of the Pakistani soldiers reminded me of when, back in 2003, the US "accidentally" bombed the Canadian soldiers doing night time exercises in Afghanistan. Four Canuck soldiers were killed.

Every dumb ass in the world knows that this is how the US "bitch-slaps" it's "allies" into submission to its killing ways.
