| NATO, US forces withdraw from Pakistan border |
| 2008-07-19 |
| NATO and US-led forces in Afghanistan have begun moving back to their compounds after massing on the border with Pakistan to locate attacking Taliban militants inside Pakistan, eyewitnesses here told Daily Times on Friday. "US and NATO troops are not to be seen outside their compounds now and have also moved tanks, artillery and heavy weapons inside their bases," Afghan locals said. US-led coalition forces amassed on the Pak-Afghan border on Tuesday, threatening to strike militant posts inside Pakistan. They (US-led forces) have stepped back from our border after they saw that the tribal people have joined hands with Taliban to safeguard the country's border," said tribal elders in Miranshah bazaar. |

| #4 maybe we did... couple stories up a couple tribal leaders are whacked in a meeting. what if the move to the border was entirely conceived for the sole purpose of watching the reaction and to make the bad guys scramble together to meet up and plan... we followed the ones we had tabs on to see who they meet with. we whack a couple and follow the rest waiting for the right big fish... |

| #3 If true, this is puzzling. Maybe we didn't get the reaction we expected. |
