Paris, Dec 5 (ANI): A noted South Asia defence analyst who spent six years in Pakistan as Australia's military attache has said NATO's attack on border posts in Mohmand that killed 24 Pakistani soldiers is "unpardonable."
"The US assault is unpardonable," wrote Cloughley in CounterPunch, a bi-weekly American newsletter.
"It was one of the only too frequent Cowboy Yippee Shoots, as we used to call them in Vietnam when I served there in the Australian army. Some things don't change," The Nation quoted Cloughley, as saying.
Cloughley, who now lives in France, said he was in Mohmand three weeks ago, visiting 77 Brigade, "whose officers and soldiers were slaughtered by US aircraft, and I know exactly where Pakistan's border posts are located. And so do American forces, because they have been informed of the precise coordinates of all them."
He expressed his outraging by cursing the NATO officers for taking such a disastrous move.
"Those killed in the US attack on Pakistan included Captain Usman, whose six-month-old daughter will never see him again, and Major Mujahid who was to be married shortly. Well done, you gallant warriors of the skies. May you never sleep contented," Cloughley added. (ANI)
