#1 So has anyone figured out why they were shooting across the border at Coaliton forces yet?

I notice that Pakistani forces don't need to call the Coalition before they start shooting, yet we have to call them. Who do the Pakis think they are? Congress or somthing?

#2 If this was a premeditated provocation specifically designed to inflame the locals, it was successful. Pakistan sees that we're leaving anyway so why not kick us in the backside to appease their defense-in-depth wing.

Given that our supply line has been cut and our base in Pakistan is closing isn't time to say goodbye to Pakistan? I mean cut off aid, mine Karachi harbor est. In other words, a pakiland delenda est goodbye.
