'US to deploy troops if Pak nukes come under threat'
US troops will be deployed in Pakistan if the nation's nuclear installations come under threat from terrorists out to avenge the killing of Osama bin Laden, the Sunday Express can reveal on Sunday.The plan, which would be activated without President Asif Ali Zardari's consent, provoked an angry reaction from Pakistan officials last night. Barack Obama would order troops to parachute in to protect key nuclear missile sites. These include the air force's central Sargodha HQ, home base for nuclear-capable F-16 combat aircraft and at least 80 ballistic missiles.A US source told the Sunday Express: "The plan is green lit and the president has already shown he is wiling to deploy troops in Pakistan if he feels it is important for national security." However, news of the plan has further increased tension between the US and Pakistan with relations already at an all-time low after the Operation Geronimo raid by the US Navy Seal special forces team that killed bin Laden at the house where he had been hiding in Abbottabad, near to a Pakistan military academy. An angry Pakistani official said: "Pakistan has an elaborate command and control structure and is fully capable of defending its strategic assets under any circumstances and does not need any assistance from any country, including the US, to safeguard its nuclear installations."The plan reflects growing concern over reprisals for the al-Qaeda terror leader's death. More than 80 people were killed and 140 injured when two Taliban suicide bombers struck at a military academy in the north-western town of Charsadda on Friday.Alex Neill, of the Royal United Services Institute, said: "The United States places its own national security issues above all other sovereignty issues and trust in Pakistan's abilities are extremely low.""If Obama can persuade congress that placing US troops at the installations is necessary to protect US citizens from possible nuclear attack, then that's what he will do." The Pentagon on Saturday refused to deny the existence of the plan, with a spokesman saying only: "We are confident that Pakistan has taken appropriate steps towards securing its nuclear arsenal."

American true plans are revealing after the unrestricted attack on Osama's den in abottabad, Pakistan must realise the nature of frienship with America. Its obvious now that America is not a friend as China calls it a superficial friend and others say it takes them as a doormat. We should take a unified national stance against America as the intentions are very dangerous for the country's existence. Moreover the role of ISI is not very commendable and it should also justify its position in front of the parliament. The whole nation is left just astounding after the 2nd May's so called humanitarian intervention of America on the soil of Pakistan. What is the level of protection we have if our greatest enemy and neighbour dares to attack us. Why we do pay so much taxes to feed army if the consequences are unfavourable. Several questions arise after the mysterious death and case of American troops in Pakistan. America is in close alliance with Britain, India and Israel to breakdown Pakistan.Read More about reaction of Pakistan http://dunyanews.tv/index.php?key=Q2F0S ... WQ9MjYxNjY
