Musharraf vows to fight terror after suicide attack kills 16 commandos
2007-09-15
Pakistan vowed to step up its fight against terrorism Friday after a suicide attacker detonated an explosive-laden vehicle inside a high-security military base, killing 16 soldiers from an elite counterterrorism task force. Authorities did not speculate on who was behind the attack, but Islamic militants will be suspected.
Reeeeeeally? Y'don't say? In Pakistain, of all places!
Twenty-nine soldiers were also wounded in the attack late Thursday at Ghazi Tarbela base - about 100 kilometers (60 miles) south of the capital, Islamabad - the headquarters of the quick-reaction counterterrorism commandos.
We're just as sure as sure can be that Perv really, really means it this time. Truly. Honest. Fer sherrr.

#4  Musharraf must respond harshly to this attack. It was an attack on the heart of the Paki officer class. This is about personal survival of the ruling class.

#1  A forked tongue makes it a lot easier for him to speak out of both sides of his mouth like that.
