****Gunmen In Pakistan Torch Nearly 30 NATO Fuel Tankers!!!....This Is Becoming Ridiculous!!!****
9th October, 2010

QUETTA, Pakistan - Gunmen in southwestern Pakistan set fire to nearly 30 tankers carrying fuel for NATO troops in Afghanistan on Saturday, an official said, two days after the United States apologized to Pakistan for a cross-border air raid that killed two Pakistani soldiers.

Suspected Islamist militants have stepped up attacks on convoys carrying supplies for NATO forces since the air September 30 air strike in northwestern Pakistan described by the U.S. ambassador to Pakistan as a terrible accident.

Maybe American Gunboat Democracy via a machine gun is growing stale in Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Shooting, starving and meddling in the economy of millions of middle easterners is going to make lots of enemies... and the best way to continue the war machine is to find an enemy and any nation occupied should generate one.

Remember Operation Enduring Freedom by my estimates spends $20 million per engaged insurgent. Their the most lucrative enemy money can buy, and the US military would fold quickly under the financial constraints if they could not keep their boogeymen on lifesupport...

The US military depends on these insurgents for their financial survivial - THAT is the real truth..

The first thing a competent army does is to secure its supply lines,or has that been out sourced too? The American military mission apparently is to just blow money for decades.

I read somewhere that a lot of soldiers in the army are mecenaries from other countries and are paid low wages. Maybe the Taliban offered them more money. Where does the Taliban get the money to fight? They must have a large army for the war to drag on this long. The war is a strange thing. I haven't heard any evidence that we are losing and I haven't heard any evidence that we are winning.

there was no car bombings in Iraq because Sadam Husain? kept the religious extremists in line. I guess George W thought it would be easier, they'd welcome liberation from tyranny and since they were very well educated they'd welcome democracy.
