Pakistan reportedly opens fire on US forces in tribal area
Our down range sources reply to the news story:From Paki sources:
The Frontier Corps operates all over the NWFP and utilizes local militias called Scouts. Often they are nothing more than Taliban with a Paki officer as a laison.
So, a detachment of S Wazirtistan Scouts at the outpost at Zeba got spooked early Monday morning by the sound of our Chinooks on the Afghan side and started firing wildly in the air. The local Wazirs joined in and pretty soon they were all shooting with muzzims calling for more firing from the mosque loudspeakers.
Nothing more to it. USA forces were not involved at all..
