US drone strikes regrettable, must stop: COAS
2016-06-02
[DAWN] Chief of Army Staff General Raheel Sharif
..Pak chief of army staff, meaning he pulls the strings on the Nawaz Sharif puppet to make it dance and sing and not do much at all....
said on Wednesday US drone strikes are regrettable and must stop as they are a threat to the illusory sovereignty and security of the country.

Speaking informally to the media at a reception after attending President Mamnoon Hussain’s address to a joint session of Parliament, the chief added that the China-Pakistain Economic Corridor is a national project and must be completed at any cost.

"The security situation in Bloody Karachi
...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous...
and Balochistan
...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it...
is improving," said the army chief.

The COAS further said border management with Afghanistan is also improving, and now the responsibility lies with Aghanistan as there are fewer checkposts on the other side.

#3  Sweet word, you are, sadly, inedible,
Nor even, incredibly, beddable,
A wonderful word,
Most regrettably heard
When the sentiment meant is, "forgettable."

Snark of the day.
