| 12 rockets fired at US base in Khost |
| 2004-01-16 |
| The U.S. military says about a dozen rockets have been fired at an American base in eastern Afghanistan. But there were no injuries or damage. A spokesman for a provincial governor says the rockets smashed into fields near the airport in Khost last night. They were fired from near the Pakistani border and he blames remnants of al-Qaida. Khost province has been the focus of American military operations against al-Qaida fighters who are believed to slip back and forth across the border. |

| #3 Pakistan is supposed to be an ally. Don't we have the right to cross the border in hot pursuit??? And if not, why not? |
