In 2001, Pakistan agreed to allow US military overflights in the War on Terror, yet since our victory in Afghanistan it is the border areas of Pakistan that have hidden the Taliban and Al-Qaeda.
A few weeks ago, Pakistan raided the Red Mosque which housed militant extremists.
And in his third message this month, Bin Laden himself addressed AQ's position on Pakistan and Musharraf.
In my article, "An Ally Assailed", I examine some of those events along with my own experiences with the Paki Military (not in it).
Why do the Paki people protest the US?
Does AQ consider Musharraf an ally or enemy?
How does that which is written in YA effect the propaganda of AQ and worldwide opinion of the US?

precise now i could say they have not relatively chosen a area, they needless to say can not help terrorists without a international reaction yet on an identical time they do no longer pick any worry from terrorists so as that they do no longer take lots action against them, so no no longer traitors in basic terms sitting on the fence. additionally, no the U. S. can not in basic terms bomb Pakistan, they're already in worry for a breach of sovereignty whilst they went for Bin encumbered, to bomb them could be an act of war and could placed the U. S. on the incorrect area, that they had be the undesirable adult males.
