U.S. led NATO helicopters attacked a Pakistani checkpoint on November 25, reportedly killing as many as 28 Pakistani soldiers, and wounding 14. NATO officials say they’re investigating, but Pakistan says enough, they closed at least two boarding crossings used to supply U.S./NATO forces in Afghanistan.
Ironically the U.S./NATO attack came about six hours after a meeting between U.S. and Pakistani military officials ended. The meeting was about preventing ‘accidental’ attacks on Pakistani forces by U.S./NATO forces.
Russian media says they have info that the NATO attack is in retaliation for Pakistan’s crackdown on CIA informants, including the resignation of Pakistan’s ambassador to the U.S., Husain Haqqani.
Just four or five days ago, Husain Haqqani was forced to quit after he was accused of seeking U.S. help in overthrowing Pakistan’s military officials.
