Do you have some kind of retardation? How do you expect 22 people to battle 200 men armed with automatic weapons and RPG's?

Nothing to be ashamed of, Police are always less trained than Terrorists. Be it Pakistan or India. Police are trained to control civil society (where very few are criminal minded). Terrorists are trained to cause maximum damage , they don't care about collateral damage, They don't follow any war rule. Neither they follow Geneva convention.

Now u are trolling..... God save you,... "iam not greek" RIP

Where did Gorkhas come?????

Anyway is this the "peace offering by ttp" . The taliban are losing their heads. This must be retaliation to the raid we did yesterday where we killed many militants and losing only two of ours. So when they see the army is more equipped they attack the police.

my deep condolences to the families of those 2 dead soldiers!may taliban show some humanity and set those 22 kidnapped jawans free.my suggestion to the pakistani friends is to equip your paramilitary soldiers with more firepower and large no. of IFVs so that when these sc*ms attack any checkpoint in large nos.(just like the maoist bast*rds in India) they can be repelled back easily inflicting significant casualties on their side!plus you can also equip them with some tanks which have been decommissioned from the PA as the presence of tanks will surely make those terrorists think twice before attacking a police/paramilitary checkpoint!

 

[humanfirst]

This is not the first time pak forces are surrendering and allowing themselves to be kidnapped by TTP.Pak forces should improve their reaction time in reinforcing the attacked posts with ground and ariel support to avoid their troops surrendering.Why is air support to troops speciously absent in many incidents like this,which often spans for more than one hour..?

Acc. to Taliban 8 of the soldiers have already been killed.

Taliban seize 22 Pak paratroopers

PESHAWAR: The Pakistani Taliban have seized at least 22 men from a regional paramilitary force in attacks on three checkpoints in northern Pakistan, a regional official said on Thursday.
Taliban and other Pakistani sources put the figure at 30. The raids close to the provincial capital of Peshawar follows two high-profile attacks in the city this month, underlining the Taliban's willingness to take on the Pakistani state amid speculation of divisions among senior Talibani leadership.
At least 22 men were missing, two had been killed and one was injured after militants armed with rocket-propelled grenades and rifles launched the overnight attacks, said Naveed Akbar, a regional official whose remit covers the Levies, or tribal force, units.
Eight of the paramilitary soldiers have been killed, Taliban spokesman Mohammed Afridi said in Khyber agency, or region. He said the group had captured 30 soldiers. Another spokesman, Ihsanullah Ihsan, said 33 were taken.
However, military sources said no soldiers or police were missing.
The kidnappings follow a daring suicide attack on Peshawar airport and a bombing that killed a senior politician and eight others at a political rally in the city earlier this month.
It was not immediately clear whether the uptick in attacks was connected to speculation that the head of the Pakistani Taliban, Hakimullah Mehsud, is losing control to his deputy.
There are many divisions within the group. One main point of contention is whether to focus on attacking US forces in Afghanistan or the military in Pakistan.


Terror outfit outlines riders for truce

The Pakistani Taliban have outlined conditions for a ceasefire, including the adoption of Islamic law and a break with the United States, a spokesman said on Thursday, an offer a senior government official described as "preposterous". The outfit, in a letter sent to The News, also demanded that Pakistan stop its involvement in the war pitting Afghan insurgents against the Kabul government and refocus on a war of "revenge" against India. Responding to the letter a government official said, "They are a bunch of criminals... No one can take such an offer or terms seriously. The Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan is not a proper entity, certainly not one any government can negotiate with."
