The US led force in Afganistan have lost all rights to be called as peace keeping force, they are killing innocents on daily basis.They must have forgot the most basic lesson of warfare , SAVE LIFE AT ANY COST, it seems they are more intrested in protecting themselves then bringing peace.
Missiles thought to have been fired by the US have killed at least seven students of a religious school in north-western Pakistan, witnesses say.
The school, in North Waziristan, is close to the residence of a fugitive Taleban leader, Jalaluddin Haqqani, witnesses told the BBC Urdu Service.
At least two missiles, reportedly fired by pilotless US drones, hit the school early on Thursday.
The Pakistani army is investigating the incident. The US has made no comment.
The latest missile attack comes hours after the Pakistani parliament unanimously adopted a resolution calling on the government to defend its sovereignty and expel foreign fighters from the region.
The resolution also called upon the government to prevent the use of Pakistani territory for attacks on another country.

This missile strike will further strain relations between two allies. Missile strikes targeting militants in Pakistan in recent weeks have been blamed on US led coalition forces or CIA drones based in Afghanistan and Pakistan has not taken it very kindly.

As i said coalition forces havent learned any thing from history, soviet forces faced the same situation .....and US were backing the taliban, now situation is just reverse........what can we expect.....they are fighting a lost battle?

Thanks Eustaquio,
This killing is the result of missuse of technolgy, so called sophisticated peace lovers are using unmaned airal vehicle to fire missile on school, probably operating it from Pentagon.Ofcource , the Force will justify it according to their own preconceived notion of warfare.

Amitjha, I like this story.I combed few American Sites and they are not yet confirmed about this.Some media reported this incident with a headline "Suspected U.S. missiles kill 8 in Pakistan".Tragedy situation.

Thaks Campanaro,
For your GS flag,The situation in Pakistan and Afganistan is deterioratin day by date, what is the interest of US led force in this zone, they can neither control Iran nor China from there. After the development of ICBM this kind of geopolitical strategy lost its importance.

We cannot justify the killing of innocent students , what we want to achieve elemination of terrorist or terrorism.WE cannot expect that future generation will be peace loving, after this kind of incident.
