Suicide attack kills 10 at NW Pakistan checkpoint

Translation:

Blackwater and cia officials bribed $$$$ a poor Pakistani guy to deliver a package, and then remotely detonated it- thus murdering the delivery guy and many others.

yes i am positive they whould want to create unrest so that terrorist could take control and aim nukes at the US. thats kind of the oppisite of homeland defense.

In the current situation in Pakistan, it is the brave policemen and Frontier Constabulary that are bearing the brunt of terrorist attacks and not the well armed Pakistani soldiers, whereas the salary and other emoluments of a Pakistani policemen are on average less that 60% of a Pakistani soldier. This disparity is even more in case of officer ranks. The daily number of martyrs makes it clear who is more at risk. The current pay scales of the two are unfair and must be addressed by the Govt urgently.

All checkpoints are ground zero for death and explosions and nothing can change that because there is no solution.

If they don't like their checkpoints being blown up, they expand the perimeter which also needs a checkpoint, it's only further away.

They don't like those being blown up so they expand again, same results.

If a bomber can get through a checkpoint he will, if he is getting busted then he simply sets off the bomb (probably by raising his weight off the seat) since these guys are on a one way trip REGARDLESS.

This is why I think checkpoints are blown up, not because they are checkpoints but because the bomber was detected.

There is one possible solution. People will still die yes but it won't be soldiers at a checkpoint unless the checkpoint was the intended target.

A checkpoint should be where there is the least amount of traffic and still provide security.

Then if the bombs or bombers are detected they should not let on to anyone in the vehicle that they are caught. They should be waved through the checkpoint. Insane? No.

Once through then you take out the vehicle from the air. Or once away from the checkpoint just fill the car with .50 cal's and let it blow up and if it doesn't, well, blow it up.

People still die but it isn't soldiers at a checkpoint. They can't do anything about it except die anyway because once the driver knows he's busted then he sets off the bomb.

It's a no win situation.

Given that, there's no harm in letting the vehicle through and taking it out down the road somewhere.

The bomb IS going to go off under ANY scenario, why not keep our soldiers in one piece at the same time by letting the vehicle through and then taking it out even if it is 50 or 100 yards down the road?

Blackwater and Cia are getting paid to create unrest in Pakistan so that the world thinks Pakistan is unstable and under dire threat of terrorists who have access to weapons of mass destruction. When their agenda is complete, they will have a reason to invade and subsequently make more $$$$ because war is big business. Similar to what happened in Iraq and Afghanistan.

There is a lot of smoke and bunk (fear propaganda) surrounding that public issue because due to the distance that Pakistan is from the US and the type of nukes that Pakistan has, they can be taken out in the air long before they arrive at the US.

The US is in NO danger from being nuked by Pakistan nukes falling into the wrong hands.

It is highly unlikely to near impossible that any nukes fired from Pakistan would actually reach their targets unless it was really local like India. Even then India has its radar up for that and would knock it out before it got over a heavily populated area.

Exactly.

The media is playing the scary 'weapons of mass destruction' card just like they did in Iraq.

The fact is, Pakistan is suffering the effects of an illegal U.S. led war even though they are a sovereign country that has neither threatened nor attacked the United States.

Afghanistan and Waziristan, is where our troops should have been to begin with. But NATO should be the harrassing insurgent, not the occupier trying to prop up a corrupt Karzai regime -- saw a cool site; Balkingpoints ; incredible satellite view of earth
