It may come to the point where Pakistan denies Uncle Sam the use of its airspace for drone strikes. At that point we’ll have to ask ourselves - do we continue the airstrikes and risk shootdowns by the Pak air force. And when the first drone is swatted out of the sky, then the question is whether we begin leveling Pakistan Air Force installations together with their complement of interceptors. And what if the Taliban takes over in Pakistan while we are fighting Pakistani military units? Events in Pakistan are getting real messy.
i figure the open declaration of china defense whatever with pakistan had anticipating this possible eventuality in mind.
