US attacks Pakistan

Before his big speech tonight the Decider (TM) may have to make a little conciliatory phone call to his buddy The General in Pakistan. US forces attacked a Pakistani border post in the Shawal area of North Waziristan yesterday killing one Pakistani soldier and wounding at least two others. A coalition spokesman said "I cannot confirm or deny loss or injury of Pakistani military" but added that it "all happened inside Afghanistan". The government of Pakistan has lodged a "strong protest" with the American forces and insisting that they "take necessary steps to ensure that such incidents are not repeated in future".

Sorry General! They probably just thought they were shooting at Iran.
