Poll: Paki army/ISI struggle to grab honor from utter shame

[ramana]

So were those Orions armed with nuke depth charges!

AQ has escalated attacks in Iraq again.The game plan is eventually to push out US from iraq, US Allies and NATO from AFPAK region and it appears to me that AQ is possibly masterminded by leaders that go hand in hand, belonging to both Pakistan as well as Iran.Eventually there is going to be a Shia Sunni polarisation in terrorist regimes, and then they fight each other for dominance.After that, there maybe a united Islamic front.Iran would support Shia terrorists, while Pakistan would remain as confused as ever.Saudi as it has always done, will support Sunni Terrorists.Such a crumbling down was predicted first by Prophet Mohammed himself, who had warned about sectarean developments as being opposed to the growth of Islam as a whole.A total of 82 sects were prophesized, perhaps if we total up the number of terrorist outfits now in the Islamic world, it would be 82. Haven't been patient enough to make a list yet.

My vote:
Raid on a PNS base and blow up some P-3C Orions..

Desparate (even if failed) attempt - or maybe even simultaneous/synchronized attempts - at attacking one or more Indian defence installations and do the == seems quite likely. Seems like the downhill slope angle just increased for TSP as a country. Things are happening very fast. This is unchartered territory.

So my vote for #5 actually took place sooner than I'd expected, it would have been on the dot if it were worded as military/nuke facilities instead of just nuke facilities. We never know about the nuke part, so we need to see this game through.

If this is an insider's job as many have said in the TIRP thread, then could this incident be a slight variation of a lower rank coup (which happens to be my second vote). The reason is the NVG's as well as grooming of the jihadis as described in the report (with 1 inch beards and all that).
