Spokesperson of the International Security Assistance Force, Brigadier General Carsten Jacobson has confirmed that a new cross border incident has occurred at the border along with the Paktia province of the Afghanistan.

He said that both ISAF and Pakistan Army were able to cooperate during this incident in which no one was injured in the incident.

Will International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) and North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) respond to the Pakistani demand for a apology or will the keep beating around the bush and waste enough time for the things to coll down? Will Pakistan keep the blockage of supply routes to Afghanistan? Will the Pakistani public settle for a condolences? What is the future of US-Pak relationship? These are the hard questions on the mind of every one concerned about Pakistan and Afghanistan.

So far it seems that ISAF is looking to get out of this situation by trying to place blame on others. First came the usual suspects, when western media outlets started quoting  anonymous sources that Pakistani side fired at the US& Afghan forces and provoked the air strike.

But DG ISPR, Maj Gen Abbas was able to shoot this strike down when it was just taking off by saying, "Nato and Afghanistan are trying to wriggle out of the situation by offering excuses. Where are their casualties ?"

Then comes the second suspect that it might have been a mistake as NATO wasn't aware of the Pakistani positions but DG ISPR said, "The two military posts, named Volcano and Golden, were located on a ridge in Mohmand region around 300m from Afghan border (and) their exact location was provided to Nato."

The security analysts believe if current actions of blocking NATO & ISAF supply route, orders to vacate the Shamsi Air Base and diplomatic decisions like boycott of the international conference on Afghanistan in Bonn, doesn't result in a formal apology and concrete steps from ISAF to stop such attacks in future than Pakistani federal government may be forced to more ahead with blocking the free air corridor which allow US and NATO forces for over-flights into Afghanistan.

With ever increasing pressure from the public, Pakistani federal government will be hard pressed to block the air corridor provided to US in case of another attack by the ISAF forces..

Director General Military Operations, Maj Gen Ishfaq Nadeem has said that border attack by the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) and North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) on Pakistani security check posts of Volcano was "a deliberate act of aggression and that the Nato/Isaf command knew within 15 minutes".

Maj Gen Ishfaq Nadeem has said that two (US AH-64 Apache) gunship helicopters had stopped targeting the Pakistani security check posts after firing for 10 to 15 minutes and officials of the International Security Assistance Force acknowledged that their gunship helicopters have been called back.

US AH-64 Apache gunship helicopters came back within 30 minutes and started the 2nd attack on the Pakistani posts and reinforcements which were sent for the assistance of the injured soldiers.

The Director General Military Operations, Maj Gen Ishfaq Nadeem has said that it was this deliberate second round of attack that disproves all claims by the ISAF and NATO officials that attack was a incident.

President Asif Ali Zardari has rejected the request of the UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah Bin Zeyed Al-Nahyan to allow United States to continue the use of the Shamsi Airbase.

The Foreign Minister of United Arab Emirates has requeted Pakistani federal government to withdraw the order to vacate Shamsi Airbase as decided by the Cabinet’s Defense Committee.

Directors General Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR), Major General Athar Abbas has called reports by the wetern media outlets that NATO attacked Pakistani soldier in response to an attack from Pakistan as untrue and excuses. 

He said, "This is not true, they are making up excuses." 

DG ISPR said "By the way, what are their losses, their casualties?"

The US & NATO's brutal attack continued for almost two hours, even after Pakistani commanders at the bases contacted the ISAF force to stop the attack which resulted in the deadliest toll of Pakistani soldiers slain by US & NATO forces.

Directors General Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR), Major General Athar Abbas said that Pakistani commanders on ground had contacted ISAF  while attack was going on, asking that “they get this fire to cease, but somehow it continued.”


He said "The attack was unprovoked and indiscriminate and There was no reason for it. Map references of all our border posts have been passed to NATO a number of times."
