Taliban fighters attack Pakistan air base near Peshawar

[Orakzai]

But now apparently since there is a shift in government and the Pakistani military has free reign to reply to aggression, the drone strikes continue with no military response.

Because the government and military are coordinating with the Americans and firing their own drones. Damn, you're not the sharpest knife in the kitchen, are you?

Come on, if you're going to participate in a discussion, try not to start off with shoddy strawmen.

So the entire makeup of the Paki army and ISI changed from then to now?

There's definitely been a shift. From shady men like Kayani and Pasha involved in multi-million dollar deals and double-talk to Raheel Sharif who has been about results from the start. Not that the whole institution's top brass has been cleaned up.

So now there is coordination?



So its better when you coordinate with the US to kill your own rather than pretend not to know?

If you have your own drones, then why does America conduct their own operations as of 2 days ago?

Maybe you don't get what I mean. There was an agreement between the two countries from the start. The PPP was definitely complicit, but chose to pretend that the Americans were firing drones out of their own free will and ignoring the Pakistanis.
And "own people" is kind of a stretch, because the Northern Areas were filled with Uzbek, Chechen, Afghan and Arab fighters.

[ComradePashtun]

The drones are Chinese, they are still learning to fly them.

[ComradePashtun]

Paki armed forces casualties

Not for the squeamish

Haha I had to laugh hard at this. Call it Porkis next time hahah

[ComradePashtun]

Man, don't insult these guys. They'll eventually be the people who'll liberate your people from Afghanistan and assimilate you into a stable country.

So now you concede all my points but now its a matter of who is being killed. You are reaching so hard I should call you Mr. Fantastic. The issue was never the makeup of people being killed, civilians aside because that would be another discussion entirely, but the complicitness of the government and military. Now that the last gov't is out of power and the Pakistani military has free reign to protect their borders, the attacks continue unanswered. No military response to intercept the drones and even less diplomatic protest than when the last gov't pretended to protest.

[ComradePashtun]

Ok sorry then, I was talking about Porkis.

[randolph85]

Says the man who left Pakistan.

For now. Ayub Khan only sealed the borders after being pushed too far by the Afghan government. Don't expect Pakistan to continue to neglect sealing the border. Public opinion is changing.
