Wonder how much this cost? Last time I checked, and made a thread about it last week, Pakistani Gov't condemned the latest attack on their soil that killed 6 killed "militants".

What's next? Are they going to allow the US Drone Base on their border to be re-opened?..

It's nice to have leverage, but not if you're going to break for a few million dollars.

The wheels on the bus... go round and round... round and round... round and round... The wheels on the bus....

You know for the past few weeks/months after the last incident where NATO forces attacked a Pakistani outpost many here at ATS were cock sure this was the end. Meanwhile, here we are again. This does not surprise me one bit.

Pakistan IMO is in a tough spot. [Many believe of their own making] by playing both sides of the fence. On the one hand the ISI has had their hand in supporting, equipping and supplying the Afghan/Pakistani "Taliban" in their efforts in neighboring Afghanistan.

The flip side of this "Support" is that many who are fighting next door come home and raise hell within Pakistani borders as well. Just keep the War financing going from the US and now China.

All will be fine.

Routes are now open...

Drive safely
