Panetta says Pakistan plans new combat operation in North Waziristan, targeting Taliban
WASHINGTON — Pakistan has told U.S. military officials that it plans to launch combat operations against Taliban militants soon in a tribal area near the Afghan border that also serves as a haven for leaders of the al-Qaida-affiliated Haqqani network, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said Monday.
Speaking to The Associated Press in his Pentagon office, Panetta said Pakistan’s military chief, Gen. Ashfaq Parvez Kayani, discussed the planned operation in recent conversations with the top American commander in Afghanistan, Gen. John Allen.
Panetta said he did not know when the Pakistani operation would start, but he said he understands it will be in the “near future,” and that the main target will be the Pakistani Taliban, rather than the Haqqani network.
Panetta welcomed Kayani’s initiative, even though the main target may not be the Haqqani leadership.
“They’ve talked about it for a long time. Frankly, I’d lost hope that they were going do anything about it. But it does appear that they in fact are going to take that step.”
They would flee to Afghanistan , whoever controls it !
That's why it is important to coordinate with NATO on the following:
1. Have NATO troops blocking the fleeing Talboobs.
2. The places where NATO cannot block off the routes, Pakistan should do the hot pursuit across the border with NATO + PAF providing air cover.
peace
That will never happen , you have my bet. US is not interested in eliminating anti Pakistan elements CIA & RAW have so actively popped up. All they want is those who fight against them , Pakistan is not going to benefit from this situation. We will have thousands of more IDPs , more suffering and no real results.

when military once talked of offensive in 2009 a strong reprisal was heard, a convoy was hit killing 20 soldiers including col and also flyers were distributed claiming that tribes will leave pakistan and move to afghanistan instead of becoming IDPs
but they are more safer in afghanistan rahther than pakistanNot at all, there is enough space in Pakistan as well; are you forgetting those thousands of madrasas all over Pakistan?
