Hundreds of Gunmen Attack Pakistani Border Post
2011-07-05
[Tolo News] Around three hundreds forces of Evil crossed into Pakistain from Afghanistan and attacked Pak border forces, officials have said.

Pak intelligence officials said on Monday that one Pak soldier was killed and another maimed in the attack that lasted for several hours in the border region of Bajaur.

At least four assailants were reportedly killed in the fight, officials said.

Pakistain claims that it has lost 56 soldiers in a spate of cross-border attacks carried out by forces of Evil crossing over from Afghanistan.

But a Pak military front man in Rawalpindi has said no forces of Evil have crossed the border, but instead fired rockets into Pakistain, killing one Pak soldier.

The Afghan government has recently accused Pakistain of firing missiles into Afghan border regions, killing and displacing hundreds of Afghans.

Afghanistan's Caped President Hamid Maybe I'll join the Taliban Karzai
... A former Baltimore restaurateur, now 12th and current President of Afghanistan, displacing the legitimate president Rabbani in December 2004. He was installed as the dominant political figure after the removal of the Taliban regime in late 2001 in a vain attempt to put a Pashtun face on the successor state to the Taliban. After the 2004 presidential election, he was declared president regardless of what the actual vote count was. He won a second, even more dubious, five-year-term after the 2009 presidential election. His grip on reality has been slipping steadily since around 2007, probably from heavy drug use...
has said that Pakistain had fired 470 rockets over the border in June, but Pakistain denies firing any missiles.

On Monday the Afghan House of Representatives in a statement strongly condemned Pak missile attacks into Afghanistan that has continued for a couple of weeks.

Afghan politicians urged Pakistain to put an immediate end to its deadly bombardments over bordering villages of the country.

Parliamentarians warned that the attacks would have perilous consequences ahead in relations between the two nations.

Residents in the Afghan villages under Pak border shelling reported a new round of shelling from Pakistain.

#1  Is it normal to be attacked for several hours and only shoot four of the attackers? I don't wish to judge unfairly out of ignorance.
