Pakistan lodges protest with US against drone strikes |
2012-10-12 |
[Dawn] ![]() The Foreign Office front man, in a statement, said that the United States Embassy was informed that the drone strikes on Pak territory were a clear violation of International Law and Pakistain's illusory sovereignty. These attacks are unacceptable to Pakistain, he added. Earlier today, a dronezap killed 16 suspected gun-hung tough guys and injured six others in the Orakzai agency of Pakistain's tribal region on Thursday. Four missiles were fired in the Buland Khel area of the Orakzai agency, which is close to the borders of the North and South Wazoo tribal regions in Fata. "The attack was aimed at the compound of Maulana Shakirullah, who is the commander of the Hafiz Gul Bahadur group of the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain (TTP)," officials said. |

#1 Look, Paki-guys, we're gonna whack these miscreants where we find 'em. Think of it as the digital version of hot pursuit. If you're bothered by these brutal and callous violations of your illusory sovereignty, chase them over the hill into Afghanistan and we'll whack 'em there. Personally, methinks the lady doth protest too much. |
