Are B-52's stationed locally? I thought they were many hours away from the war zone. And are they normally used to drop a single 250 kg bomb? That's not heavy lifting. I suspect that this journalist is flagging the wrong aircraft. But I could be wrong.

What's with the 250 "KG" bomb report? We don't make bombs of that size. It's either 250 LBS (113 KGS) or 500 LBS (227 KGS).

I just saw this.

It's those suns-a-bi$tSen religion of peace ragheads coming out of the closet!

If my son were over there, I'd tell him to keep at least one extra bullet for every pakistani on his patrol.

These bastards hate our infidel guts and would cut head off in a second if given a chance.

Who in the hell are we trying to fool on this anyway?

U.S. Bombs Hit Pakistan Town After Border Clash

The U.S. military said that one of its soldiers had been wounded in Afghanistan Sunday in an exchange of gunfire with a Pakistani border guard. A Pakistani official said two border guards were also injured.

The wounded American was part of a unit conducting a mission with Pakistani forces along the Afghan border when a disagreement appeared to break out, according to a statement released by the U.S. military at their Afghan headquarters at Bagram air base.

"A Pakistani border scout opened fire with a G3 rifle after the U.S. patrol asked him to return to the Pakistan side of the border," the statement said.

"That individual and several others retreated to a nearby structure," it added. "Close air support was requested and one 500-lb bomb was dropped on the target area." =======================================================================================

I'd sure as hell like to know what this G.I. said that was so ugly the raghead son of a bitch had to pull his G3 on him!
