American Military Forces To Attack Pakistan - Pentagon's Ground Operation's
| Bush okays hitting Pakistan September 11, 2008 presstv.ir | |
The New York Times reported that the secret July decision allowing special operations forces to carry out assaults within the borders of a key "war on terror" ally marked a turning point for the Bush administration which has struggled with Islamabad over how to combat Al-Qaeda and a resurgent Taliban. "The situation in the tribal areas is not tolerable," a senior American official told the paper on condition of anonymity. "We have to be more assertive. Orders have been issued." White House national security spokesman Gordon Johndroe declined to comment on the NYT report, and Bush aides have refused to speak publicly for days about media accounts of ground and missile attacks inside Pakistan. According to the newspaper, US officials say they will notify Pakistan when the United States conducts operations on the country's territory, but that they will not ask for permission. The report comes a week after a cross-border raid allegedly by US-led coalition troops based in neighboring Afghanistan the left 15 people dead. Pakistan army chief General Ashfaq Kayani Wednesday strongly criticized the raids and said the country would defend its sovereignty "at all cost." SG/HAR |
