Israel Navy rehearses raid ahead of new Gaza-bound flotilla

The Israel Navy on Wednesday held an exercise incorporating several special forces units as part of ongoing preparations to prevent an international aid flotilla from reaching the Gaza Strip in the coming weeks.

The organizers of "Freedom Flotilla 2," to include 15 ships and some 1,500 pro-Palestinian activists, plan to set sail from European ports later this month and are expected to approach Gaza coast in the first week of July.

Members of the Israeli navy's elite Shayetet 13 commando unit, in conjunction with other special forces teams, on Wednesday held mock raids simulating scenarios that can possibly unfold in case a military operation were to be ordered, including violent encounters with armed activists.

What has the war in Afghanistan really achieved?

after one of the bloodiest months since the conflict began, and a week in which President Obama announced a speeding up of troop withdrawals

At least 60 people died in a suicide bombing just 25 miles from Kabul yesterday. In a few days' time, a report on Afghanistan from the International Crisis Group will say that violence and the billions of dollars in international aid have brought wealthy officials and insurgents together. As a result, "the economy is increasingly dominated by a criminal oligarchy of politically connected businessmen".

The negatives column in the Afghan war's balance sheet does not get any shorter. So far, the conflict has lasted nine years, eight months and 17 days, cost the lives of 2,547 coalition troops, and between 14,000 and 34,000 civilians, created millions of refugees, and opened up a black hole in Western economies that has sucked in more $500bn dollars. Afghanistan costs the US around $10bn (£6.3bn) a month; and Britain will pay £4.5bn this year.

Pakistan expels British trainers of anti-Taliban soldiers

Pakistan has expelled a team of British military trainers sent to help with the fight against the Taliban and al-Qaida, as the fallout from the US raid that killed Osama bin Laden continues to rock relations between Islamabad and its western allies.

The Ministry of Defence confirmed that at least 18 military advisers, deployed as part of a £15m programme to train the paramilitary Frontier Corps, have been withdrawn from Pakistan. Most are already back in the UK.

Their removal is seen as an indirect casualty of worsening relations between Pakistan and the US over the 2 May Navy Seal raid in Abbottabad, which was conducted without Pakistani consent.

Israel's Leaders Hole Up In Nuclear Bunker

JERUSALEM — Israeli leaders holed up in a new underground nuclear bunker on Wednesday as part of annual nationwide maneuvers to prepare for a possible missile war with Iran, Syria and their Lebanese and Palestinian guerrilla allies. 

Officials said it was the first time that the security cabinet, headed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, had tested the bunker, dug deep in the western Jerusalem foothills over the past decade and dubbed the "Nation's Tunnel" by local media.

Israel has held increasingly sweeping civil defense drills since the 2006 Lebanon war, during which Hezbollah guerrillas (allegedly) fired thousands of short-range rockets at its northern towns.

85 per cent of all drugs produced in Afghanistan are shipped out by US aircraft

85 per cent of all drugs produced in Afghanistan is being shipped aboard US aircraft. Foreign diplomats have stated that the United States military buy drugs from local Afghan drug lords who deal with field commanders overseeing eradication of drug production. The administration of President Hamid Karzai, including his two brothers, Kajum Karzai and Akhmed Vali Karzai, are involved in the CIA controlled narcotics trade – one of the main reasons why the U.S. installed Karzai as De facto president of Afghanistan.

“The Americans are working hard to keep narco business flourishing in both countries,” says Mikhail Khazin, president of the consultancy firm Niakon. “They consistently destroy the local infrastructure, pushing the local population to look for illegal means of subsistence. And the CIA [Central Intelligence Agency] provides protection to drug trafficking.”

Cia media war against ISI !

LAHORE – Gone are the days when the US undercover agents like Raymond Davis riding on a well-equipped four-wheel-drives used to roam on roads in Pakistan freely, as Pakistan’s security agencies have smashed the entire CIA spying-network on its soil.

Highly-placed sources disclosed to The Nation that the government has strongly conveyed to the Interior and Foreign Ministries and Pakistan’s Embassy in Washington that no more visas will be issued to US undercover agents in future.

TURKEY A ROLE MODEL!

Within less than a decade Turkey has really turned around in almost all strategic aspects. In 2002, it suffered from almost all the ills that Pakistan is facing today. A sinking economy, political instability, ‘junta’ dominated civil-military equation and polarized society were the hall-marks of Turkey. It prided itself with secular ideals and shunned its Muslim identity. Getting the membership of European Union was a matter of life and death. 

Nevertheless, this was the profile of the state only. Public sentiment was quite the opposite. Shrine going jeans wearing youngsters, privately praying elderly and masses flocking to see the Islamic relics in the specially arranged centers represented the simmering attachment of the public with Islam.  Undercurrents were visible indicating that people were looking for an outlet, an opportunity and a genuine political leadership.

‘Stable Afghanistan not worth abandoning strategic interests’

ISLAMABAD: 
Army chief General Ashfaq Parvez Kayani has told a visiting European delegation that “Pakistan wants a stable Afghanistan but not at the cost of Pakistan,” suggesting that Islamabad wants to remain relevant in any peace initiative and is unlikely to accept a solution that would undermine its strategic interests. 
This revelation was made by German Minister for Economic Cooperation and Development Dirk Niebel, who is currently visiting Pakistan alongside his European Union counterpart. 
“We have to find a solution (to this problem) and Pakistan’s cooperation with Germany and the EU can become the basis for the stability of the region,” said Niebel.

Pakistan 'blocking supplies to US base'

Pakistan is blocking food and water from reaching a remote base used by the US for its secret drones programme, severely hampering counter terrorism strategy, according to a senior American official.

Both sides are now briefing against the other as hostility between the two countries grows more intense – and more open – day by day.

A senior American official told The New York Times that supplies had been choked off to the airbase and that they were gradually "strangling the alliance" by making things difficult for the Americans in Pakistan.

The drones programme, although never publicly acknowledged by the US and repeatedly condemned by Pakistan, is credited with killing a series of high-profile targets.

Enemy out to discredit Army and ISI

The US and Western media have intensified propaganda against the Pakistan Army and its security agencies to discredit the defenders of Pakistan and create a situation like the one that had led to the disintegration of what was once the Soviet Union, according to a senior official who knows how the enemies had acted to wipe off the global map the only power that used to challenge the United States. Talking to TheNation on Wednesday, the official said the enemy wanted to demoralise Pakistan’s security forces so that they were unable to play any role in case the Islamic republic faced a situation like the one Libya, Syria and some other Arab countries have been through.

Conversations With Serving Armed Forces Personnel Provide Insights & Fourth Generation Warfare (4GW)

Demoralize the enemy from within by surprise, terror, sabotage, assassination. This is the war of the future.
Adolf Hitler

“It has to be the Indians, I tell you,” he said. “Look at the details of this attack: the target inside the base was a technology specifically designed to counter the Indian forces.”

This is the view inside most military circles — the argument I heard most often when I visited Islamabad this month, arriving on the same night as the PNS Mehran Base attack. My conversations with military officials centered around terrorism, and these discussions brought to light the concept of Fourth Generation Warfare (4GW).

A research paper at the National Defense University focusing on 4GW contends that Pakistan is facing a war on a front most of us can’t even analyse correctly. According to the paper, war theorists all over the world say that warfare has entered into a new phase where “an evolved form of insurgency uses all available networks — political, economic, social and military — to convince the enemy’s decision makers that their strategic goals are either unachievable or too costly for the perceived benefit.” It characterises 4GW as a scenario where the distinction between war and peace is blurred so that war becomes non-linear, possibly to the point of having no definable battlefields or fronts.

Pakistan: CATCH-22 OF DEFENCE SPENDING

By Air Commodore(R) Khalid Iqbal 

A typical national purpose has two vital components, national development and national survival. Masses like to be prosperous and secure. These two facets support each other as much as they compete with each other. National development without security attracts aggressors and national security at the cost of development degrades social security and erodes public welfare.  Balance between the two is essential but is difficult to achieve. Meltdown of Soviet Union and occupation of Kuwait by Iraq are two contemporary examples of imbalance between national development and national security.  

There are many ways of looking at a defence spending; each approach leads to differing perceptions. First let’s take a look at Pakistan’s budget from the ‘broader picture perspective’.

Pak Marines to be deployed at Karachi Fish Harbour

Pak Marines, the special military operations service branch of the Pakistan Navy, will be deployed at the Karachi Fish Harbour (KFH) while the Pakistan Navy will establish a picket in the sea and inspect each and every boat entering or leaving the harbour as part of increased security measures being adopted to secure naval and civil installations at Karachi port.
This was decided at an important meeting held at Karachi Fish Harbour with Sindh Fisheries Minister Zahid Bhurgari in the chair while representatives from the Pakistan Navy, Maritime Security Agency (MSA), Fishing Trawlers Association, and representatives of fishermen also attended the meeting.

RAF Eurofighter Typhoons 'Beaten By Pakistani F-16s'

Pakistani pilots flying modernised versions of the 1970s-vintage F-16 Falcon fighter have beaten the RAF's brand-new Eurofighter Typhoon superfighters during air combat exercises in Turkey, according to a Pakistani officer.

This interview with an unnamed but evidently experienced Pakistani Air Force (PAF) F-16 pilot on exchange with the Turkish air force, posted on the official site of the PAF display team, includes the following intriguing passage.

Q: Any memorable experiences that you would like to share?

A: On one occasion – in one of the international Anatolian Eagles - PAF pilots were pitted against RAF Typhoons, a formidable aircraft. There were three set-ups and in all three, we shot down the Typhoons. The RAF pilots were shocked.

Pakistan tells CIA chief no U.S. boots on the ground

(Reuters) - Pakistan's army and intelligence chiefs told CIA Director Leon Panetta they were not willing to reverse a decision to cut the number of U.S. troops allowed in Pakistan, Pakistani military officials said on Saturday.

Panetta, nominated to take over as defense secretary next month, arrived in Pakistan on Friday on an unannounced visit, his first trip since a secret U.S. raid that killed Osama bin Laden and severely damaged ties between the allies.

Expand Black Ops from Pakistan to North Africa:Escalate Shadow Wars

At his Thursday confirmation hearing to become secretary of defense, CIA Director Panetta made a broad case for expanding the U.S.’ already extensive shadow wars. Now that bin Laden is dead, “we’ve got to keep the pressure up,” Panetta urged senators. Expect a lot of drone strikes and a lot of special ops raids — some conducted by future CIA Director David Petraeus. In a lot of places.

Panetta said he wants to hit al-Qaida’s “nodes” from Pakistan to North Africa, “develop[ing] operations in each of those areas,” so terrorists have “no place to escape.” That means working with the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC), the elite commandos that executed the raid on bin Laden’s Abbotabad compound. And Panetta has some specific ideas about how that should work.

India’s Unusual Intelligence And Naval Activism

Dr. Jassim Taqui

Islamabad: The Indians seem to be enjoying their clandestine war of attrition against Pakistan in collaboration with their new American ally and all-weather Israeli friend though the Jewish state prefers to play its role from behind the scene. Ironically every party of the trio is playing a double game that aims at promoting its national interests. This is a big game of “ sleeping with the enemy.” However, the Indians seem to be the weakest and more vulnerable in this game of deceit and self-indulgence.

India has sanctioned $ 36 billion for its 2012 defence budget even as over 500 million Indians are living below poverty line. The American and Israeli military establishments love this and look forward to siphon the maximum billions of this huge spending. This huge Indian military posture has also been combined with an unprecedented intelligence and naval cooperation with the United states.

US Drones Launch Chemical Attacks On Pakistani Civilians

TEHRAN, June 8 -- Pakistani physicians and experts reported that the United States uses chemical munitions in its drone attacks on the country's civilians, Iran's Fars News Agency (FNA) said.

Given the fact that the Pakistani civilians who have come under the US drone attacks have been afflicted with different skin, optic and respiratory diseases, it can be concluded that Washington is using chemical weapons in its attacks in Pakistan, the physicians said.

The Pakistan Army’s Karachi-based V Corps launched the exercise a fortnight ago in the desert terrain of Thar, senior Indian intelligence sources told IANS news agency.

Stop Using Saleem Shahzad’s Death To Target ISI

An ISI spokesperson is quoted by the Associated Press of Pakistan as describing journalist Syed Saleem Shehzad’s death as ‘a source of concern for the entire nation’. He also indirectly accuses unidentified elements of using the murder to ‘malign’ the country’s premier intelligence agency.

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan—The unfortunate and tragic death of Syed Saleem Shahzad is a source of concern for the entire nation but the incident should not be used to target and malign the country’s security agencies, said an ISI official Wednesday on condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the job. “The reported meeting between the journalist and ISI officials of the Information Management Wing was held on 17th October 2010 to discuss a story he had done for Asia Online on 15th October, and the meeting had nothing sinister about it,” said the official.

Pak insecurity means US insecurity

Sajjad Shaukat

Despite tough statements of the US high officials, showing a paradoxical approach of Washington against Islamabad in connection with Osama Bin Laden who was killed in a US military raid at Abbottabad in Pakistan, America wants to continue its relationship with Pakistan which is a frontline state of war on terror. On May 18, this year, some US Senators and law-makers urged the Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Defence Secretary Robert Gates to review the security assistance of Pakistan, while some suggested cutting off the aid of the former, saying that some of its intelligence agencies were aware of the hideout of Bin Laden. But on May 19, Defence Secretary Gates and Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral Mike Mullen stated that there was no evidence that leaders in Islamabad knew the whereabouts of the Al Qaeda chief before a US raid. They also advised against cutting off aid to Pakistan for its failure to go after terrorist leaders, while indicating that Washington had important interests at stake and that Islamabad had already been “humiliated” by the raid.

Message for Pakistan

جب لوگوں کو اپنی افواج کے خلاف باتیں کرتے دیکھتا ہوں تو لگتا ہے دشمن تو اپنے مقصد میں کامیاب ہو گیا ،ہم سے جنگ کیے بغیر ہمارے دل و دماغ پر قابو پا لیا 
پہلے تو حکمران غیروں کے ہاتھوں میں کھیلتے تھے اب عوام بھی دشمن کی انگلیوں پر ناچنے لگی ہیں، اور انہیں اس بات کا احساس ہی نہیں ہو رہا  ARE YOU ALSO ONE OF THOSE WHO WERE DECEIVED BY THESE SMS's????

Say NO to Anti Pakistan and Anti Army or ISI SMS!
These are being generated by indian agents in Pakistan and we are fulfilling our enemies' mission...by demorilizing our nation. 

CIA failed to learn about Pearl Harbour attack 
CIA failed to save Americans from NINE ELEVEN attacks.
CIA gave false information of Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq.
