from Guajardo: On Thursday last week, Pakistan fired on U.S. aircraft and the Pentagon is expecting an explanation. U.S. aircraft was making a routine patrol when "warning shots" were fired which Pakistan's new president says were only "flares." Interestingly enough, Pakistani military mistook U.S. aircraft for Taliban even though they don't have aircraft..
Interesting how easily tension can start by mere accusations or assumptions. Maybe we should take away weapons that way it wouldn't be used as an excuse for initiating any hostility. This world is so dangerous which makes our relations more difficult because who can say when another country will mistake us for a terrorist, non-aircraft group?
Obviously violence can't always be the solution, or form of retaliation but what else is there when guns are firing and there are missels readily available? This kind of situation just makes everything escalate and I realize what's the point in being in a pacifist when clearly the world today is just not suited for that kind of attitude.
