The Pakistanis are in quite an uproar about this. Eleven of their guys died while eight taleban died.

Good Shootin'
That looks like some really good shooting to me. When you can durn near seee the face of the guy getting zapped, it is pretty obvious they got the right people. I would suspect the small arms and RPG fire from the Taliban probably had a little to do with the Pakistani deaths. I guess if the Pak's don't like it they could use their own Air assets...oh wait....

Isn't a sizeable population of the world related to Genghis? I can't name the stat accurately but I recall it was maybe like 1-2% of the world's population.

Not quite. More like .5% of the world's male population or 16 million people.

Still quite extraordinary.
So 19 muslim fundamentalists got killed? Sounds like a good round-up to me
Meh. He's got nothing on this stud.
I know you are being a smartass, but......to call them fundamentalists is just plain ignorant. The Army is one of the few institutions in that country making sure it doesn't slip over the edge.
I assume you refer to the Pak Army, and yes I agree they have been walking on eggshells for 30+ years. Still, someone needs to sack up and tell the general populus where to stick it....

Hey, who knows, I might enjoy it:icon_smil...as far as tha PAK Air Force....if they were that good, we wouldn't have to be in there cleaning up their mess:banghead_. (you don't see us calling on the Mexican Air Force to combat drug runners on our side of the border..that's what we have our own border patrol for)
Well, they do have more kills than the US Navy in the past 35 years, and most were against the Soviet Air Force.
And who says they aren't fighting, how would you know?
Not only is it a disputed border, but from having been there I can tell you it's damn near impossible to tell what is where. It's some of the ugliest terrain you can imagine. I say screw 'em.
