Should any foreign Army bomb "insurgent" targets" inside Pakistan, whitout Islamabad authorization?

No.

Nope. The Pakistani government does not support terrorists so their's no case, really.

Hell no

If the Pakistan government ASKS for our help, fine. Otherwise, we'd cause far more problems than we'd solve.

Hell no; they are sovereign in their own nation. No one has the right to directly influence what's going on there.

Nope. The Pakistani government does not support terrorists so their's no case, really.are you saying that -if in my opinion- America supported the IRA or AQ.. I was allowed to bomb inside America? (in the 80s or whatever years they supported these)

I always thought it was American citizens rather than the government who supported the IRA

Seems like it would be a clear act of war to bomb targets in another country without that government's green light.

Of course, I'm sure it will be labeled something innocuous like "energetic proactive peacekeeping".

Not like Islamabad could do anything about it anyways. Musharraf is quite the unpopular lad there these days, with the massacre at Lal Masjid stirring the people to be totally against the gov't.

I always thought it was American citizens rather than the government who supported the IRAthere is a wide number of countries where you can find citizens whom do support the IRA objectives -reuniting Ireland-

but in BushWorld all that matters is the opinion of the Gov who wants to bomb the supposed "terrorwist supporters"

no no no:mp5:

I'm curious as too what army your suggesting and as to why an army air corps would be used in bombing missions :confused:

Illegally bombing a country...that has nuclear weapons...doesn't seem like a smart idea...

I am half Pakistani and I SAY NO WAI.... D:

Is this thread serious?

Not from where I stand. I was there a few weeks ago, *Pakistan* and it is fine. I was in Karachi with my family.

Ok. So tell me why is Hafiz Mohammed Saeed still free?

FYI, LeT's Headquarters is not in "lawless tribal areas". It is in Muridke, near Lahore (second largest city of Pakistan).

Hell no; they are sovereign in their own nation. No one has the right to directly influence what's going on there.

Is it ok then for US to fund the Pakistan army to the tune of 100 million dollars a month ?

Perhaps you haven't seen where suicide bombers are starting in Pakistan? I believe there was a call by fanatics to send endless waves of suicide bombers against the Musharraf gov't. This, remind you, is within the last 2 weeks or so. Perhaps you got out just in time?

I'm curious as too what army your suggesting and as to why an army air corps would be used in bombing missions :confused:Does it matter?

I could be talking about the Turkish bombing inside Iraq.. without asking for Baghdad approval..
I could be talking about Russia bombing inside US.. without asking for Washington approval.
I could be talking about Pakistan bombing inside India.. without asking for Aryavartha approval.
I could be talking about Madagascar..

Is it ok then for US to fund the Pakistan army to the tune of 100 million dollars a month ?of course not.

Is it ok for the US to fund the Israeli Defense Force with $2 billion dollars?

In Karachi, the violence is between the MQM (the Mohajirs - Indian migrants) and others. It is a unique city in the sense that it has a Mohajir majority, so the dynamics are different than Baloch Vs Punjabis or Pushtun Jihadists Vs army etc.

Not that it does not have problems. In a recent showdown (I think May 12) between the supporters of the ousted chief justice and MQM, MQM goons shot dead some 40 people in an overt display of "street power".

Groups of activists belonging to Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM), a partner in the federal ruling coalition, and those of the opposition parties supporting the suspended Chief Justice, used assault rifles and indiscriminately fired with their weapons in street clashes in different parts of Karachi.

Does it matter?

it could after all is Pakistan allowed to bomb itself? is the U.N? I must have more info dammit!

Is it ok for the US to fund the Israeli Defense Force with $2 billion dollars?

Israelis cooperate and does what US asks for the money they get.

No.

it could after all is Pakistan allowed to bomb itself? I must have more info dammit!are you asking if Pakistan approved the bombing?
Your question is answered on the OP...

heck.. its even answered on the Thread Title.

Israelis cooperate and does what US asks for the money they get.

Nope. That money comes from military sales. You can't tell someone what to buy...

>_>;
