Was that Pakistan’s 9/11?

Was that Pakistan’s 9/11?

Beena Sarw

No one has claimed responsibility but the attack is assumed to be work of Pakistani Taliban (closely allied with Al-Qaeda) who have strongholds in the country’s north-west bordering Afghanistan. The American attack on this area on September 3 barely two days after Pakistan’s President took oath and subsequent such strikes generated great resentment. However, Pakistan’s threat of retaliation against these incursions has little meaning given America’s military might, and Pakistan’s client state status and heavy dependence on the U.S. And yet there are plenty of emotionally charged up people here who are eager to fight America.
