Pakistan had banned NATO forces from using Pakistan for supply convoy space. This comes after some Pakistani troops were killed by NATO helicopters. According to the article, http://afghanistan.blogs.cnn.com/2010/09/30/pakistan-bans-nato-supply-convoys-after-troop-deaths/, the NATO helicopters acted in self defense when they were fired upon by people on the ground. This may become a large issue due to the fact that we rely on Pakistan as a supply route for our troops in Afghanistan. Also, this comes after the discussion we had about the United States and their drone planes that were bombing places in Pakistan that could have had rebel troops and leaders.
