The paradox is beginning to turn nasty. Two days after the bombing, U.S. helicopters seeking to cross the border were repulsed by gunfire from Pakistani troops and local tribesmen...

Li points out that, as it has been at pains to point out regularly in the official media, the government's reaction has been swift and decisive, including everything...
...their outrage over the war and what has transpired in Iraq because of the Bush Administration ... We don't condone addressing your adversaries in any violent means, but in this case, when we feel an unjust war was waged, we certainly are empathetic toward the journalist who expressed his anger and frustration in this way." (A disclaimer on the site says, "We do not condone shoe-throwing, but we prefer...
