<soldiers had marked six houses with red paint > No Army likes to go after their own people, however these people under General Orakzai a valiant man from the Orakzai tribe from the very same area are trying to implement the decisions of the nation to eradicate Al-Qaeda. What shocks me that none of this ever is known, the question marks are raised every day and if you happen to listen to Oreilly, it looks as if Pakistan is the enemy number 1? The point I wanted to make is that the thesis that Mush is tight with Bush has massive following, these tribes man refuse to handover the six guys hiding and for the first time since 1947 or even under the Raj action is being taken to in these fiercely independent areas to make these sanctuaries impossible for Osama cohorts. We are in a very bad situation on one hand is our own people on the other the global commitments, the only thing that worries me is after making all these people and divisions in the nation NYT will always come out and say Mush cannot even move in his own country, little do they appreciate the reason is simple he is handling the most heinous of the peoples, they happen to be their the scum of the middle eastern terrorists escaped into Mountainous belts around north western province, the threats on his life are not of his making but rather due to reason of his commitment ot use that as an argument to discredit him is what I fail to understand, it is rightly said by some that he is doomed any way the US will desert him by the looks of the press reports, it is only the administration who defends him but such attitudes does open eyes of others who feel that may be we can never win over apprehensions the likes of Oreilly and NYT.

<<The houses have been demolished under a British-time special law governing the tribal region called the Frontier Crimes Regulation. The house of a key religious leader, Maulana Shamsul Haq has already been destroyed. The authorities here on Friday blasted houses of five people in the semi-autonomous Janikhel tribal region charged with snatching Al Qaeda suspects from a militia checkpoint as part of the understanding reached with a tribal jirga. The authorities moved in Janikhel village, still under siege on the fifth day of the snatching incident, and dynamited the houses of five people. Arrests were also being made, witnesses said. They said that the paramilitary forces blasted houses of Maulana Imtiaz Ali, Maulana Abdullah and Maulana Sher Alam while action against Hafiz Sadar Hayat's house was put off due to the death of his grandfather. There was no official confirmation of the reported understanding. The authorities, however, are adamant that the operation would continue until Janikhel tribe gave up the eight suspects. Among them are said to be four foreigners, possibly of central Asian origin. The tribe denies the presence of foreigners and claims that those snatched from the militia were local Taliban.>> In a similar development, houses demolition is practised by other greater democracies too.. Demolition order: The Israeli army ordered the demolitions of the homes of four Palestinians in east Jerusalem arrested by the army last month for belonging to a secret cell of the Islamic militant Hamas group. The families of the four suspected militants, who are accused of helping plot bomb attacks inside Israel that killed 35 Israelis, were given 48 hours to appeal the action.
