Pakistan: Attack On PAF Kamra
Posted on 16. Aug, 2012 by Raja Mujtaba in Pakistan
By Raja G Mujtaba
Pakistan Air Force Base at Kamra was attacked in the very early morning hours today. Kamra, besides an Air Base, is Aeronautical complex also where PAF not only produces her latest JF 17 Aircraft but also has the rebuild facility for its entire weapon system.
Attack on Kamra is continuation of previous attacks on GHQ where the attempt was to take General Ashfaq Kayani as hostage and at PNS Mehran where the P3 C Orion Anti Submarine warfare Surviellance Aircraft were the target. At Kamra, SAAB 2000 the Early Warning Aircraft Sytem equipped with the latest techonology were the target.
The attack took place at 0230 hours when people were generally suppose to be busy with preparations of fasting. The date and time by the attackers was very carefully selected as it being the 27th of Ramadan on which night the maximum number of Muslims try and pray the whole night. Thinking that at this time all would be on low guard, the attackers tried to enter the base in PAF uniforms. The security guard Mohammad Asif having sensed the foul play shot dead one of the attackers who was later identified from Central Asia. Later the security guard was shot dead by the other attackers.
With this everone was alerted and everything moved in very swiftly to defend the base successfully. Air Commodore Mohammad Azam who moved in immediately to lead the operation got a bullet a bullet in his shoulder. Likewise an injured Squadron Leader who crawlled to put out the fire from a random firing that damaged a SAAB 2000 Aircraft.
The PAF spokesperson when contacted on telephone informed that PAF Chief Air Cheif Marshal Tahir Rafique Butt immediately at 0230 hours took over the entire operation for its logical conclusion.
All the eight attackers have been killed, the operation has concluded successfully for which the PAF desrves a commendation.
Prior to this report, I had written an analysis of the incident that is placed below.

We have far too many enemies, who don't want to let us live in peace. Terrorists, or their masters can be bought to do anybody's bidding. The price has to be right. Those that are supposed to work to reduce the number of our enemies are busy in exploiting photo-ops along with their progenies to strengthen their dynasties- the country, nation and people be damned!

GET THE SNIFFER DOGS TO THE JOB
They can sniff out USrahelli/uk/naTo/raw/explosives/criminal/thugs
———————————————————————————
Tehran Conference belies US Syria claims: Webster Tarpley
Ms Hina Khar "landmark STATEMENT" + Pakistan coward Abstention is the reason for this attack.
You do not need to be a defense EXPERT to know that. US is a bully dumb bastard thug nation. They think that defiance of their bellicose ideology has to be punished.
A VERY SERIOUS MISTAK INDEED! When the end nears the desperation grows. When desperation grows mistakes – VERY SERIOUS MISTAKES ARE MADE.
On the day Iraq refused to support the kilary's blow boys disgusting revolting shameful INSANITY against SYRIA
many bombs went off in Iraq killing scores of people
USraehelli/eu/gcc goons + naTo is NOT AN INTELLIGENT AXIS it is a thug bully bellicose one.
YOU NEED INTELLIGENCE TO SURVIVE!
I suggest you read Ibn Khuldoun Islamic historian “intellectual decline of the people”
the cursed house of saud have to be REMOVED as custodians of our HOLY SITES these brit humphery's bastardized cult are ignorant barbarians – disgusting despicable revolting crusader whores
sending FOOLS al-cia-da/FSA as the great Imam called them will achieve nothing. Divide et impera will not work as people KNOW THESE CRIMINAL THUGS from USRahell/UK/gcc/naTo/EU and they will RESIST THEM
one of biggest stupidity “repeat a lie blah blah blah+ propaganda for bellicose ideology blah blah” brit bulldog Churchill + Goebbels craptology
is the BIGGEST MISTAKE
try repeating LIES and see where it gets you that is if you survive the anger+ferocity of people
even fairy tales advised against this – cry wolf

Image: An impressive counter to the so-called "Friends of Syria" confabs held by Wall Street and London corporate-financier interests in an attempt to sway global opinion toward a repeat of Libya's destruction at NATO's hands, the International Consultative Conference hosed by Iran seeks to end the flow of foreign arms into militant hands and resolve political differences through more civilized means.
by Tony Cartalucci
August 11, 2012 – Iran has recently hosted 30 nations including Russia, China, India, Pakistan, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Ecuador, Afghanistan, Algeria, Iraq, Oman, Turkmenistan, Venezuela, Cuba, Jordan, Tunisia, Palestine, and many others in Tehran this week in efforts to support the Syrian government against foreign destabilization. Upon the agenda were calls to end foreign arms currently flowing into terrorist hands inside Syria, proposals to broker a meaningful ceasefire, the coordination of humanitarian aid, and supporting the Syrian people's right to reform without foreign interference.

a good assessment of the situation and i really appreciate your views on this, which will always be more accurate than our media ; when i read this Reuter's reporting, there were several things that i did not like about it, and when they start saying things like this: "The Taliban, which is close to al Qaeda, is blamed for many of the suicide bombings across Pakistan, a strategic U.S. ally
