Pakistan by bag_lady (away)For many years now, the USA has been trying to break up Pakistan.Pakistan's only hope of survival may be to kick out the CIA, and form a close alliance with China.
In November 2011: "
Pakistan and China are staging joint military exercises, showcasing their relationship as Islamabad's ties with Washington suffer. The war games that began Monday follow remarks by Pakistani officials suggesting that China could step into the economic, military and diplomatic void if Pakistan's relationship with the United States collapsed." Pakistan has been cracking down on the CIA.
Each time Pakistan cracks down on the CIA, there is an act of revenge by the USA.

In The Pakistan Spectator, 21 September 2008, Ali Yar Khan asks
What Was Going on in the Marriott Hotel?He makes the following points:
1. After the blast, a mysterious fire started on the fourth and fifth floors. It was said that this fire was the result of a gas pipeline burst.
2. Allegedly, the fifth and fourth floors of the hotel were housing mysterious steel boxes under the guard of United States marines. Allegedly, these boxes were moved into the hotel when Admiral Mike Mullen met Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani and others in Islamabad.
The boxes may have contained explosives?

It was reported that several senior officers of the CIA were in Islamabad, on a visit, at the time of the explosion. (

Reports from Pakistani security officials said the soldiers were killed by an explosive device.
Next the explosion site is a school.
Most of the 131 people who were wounded were girls who were pupils at the school.
Three of the Pakistanis who were killed were schoolgirls.
The soldiers were reportedly en route to the opening of the girls' school.
Why might American special forces, wearing disguises, want to visit a school in a volatile area?
Would it not have been better for Pakistanis to be involved in the opening of the school? According to a 'Taliban' spokesman: "The Americans killed were members of the Blackwater group. "We know they are responsible for bomb blasts in Peshawar and other Pakistani cities." (Blackwater-type US security contractor in NWFP: Bilour)Capt.
