U.S. says it fired at insurgents in Pakistan

KABUL, Afghanistan — U.S. troops in Afghanistan launched a barrage of artillery at insurgents attacking their position from inside Pakistan’s volatile tribal region, in a cross-border strike coordinated with Pakistan’s military, U.S. and NATO officials said Tuesday.

The strike less than a mile inside Pakistan came after the militants fired rockets at a U.S. position in Afghanistan. Al-Qaida and Taliban militants have long found refuge in the border region, where they launch attacks on U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan.

Sunday’s operation highlights growing cooperation between Afghan, Pakistani and U.S. officers, military officials said.

A person properly schooled in right and wrong is safe with any weapon. A person with no idea of good and evil is unsafe with a knitting needle, or the cap from a ballpoint pen.

I remain pessimistic given the way BATF and the anti gun crowd have become tape worms in the guts of the Republic. - toad
