Pakistani army denies us troops were in the Northwest

military of Pakistan denied a report that us special forces have been integrated with Pakistani troops for intelligence missions in the Northwest of the country.

The local Dawn newspaper, said Saturday that he obtained secret dispatches by WikiLeaks which revealed that us special forces have been deployed with Pakistani troops in operations joint in Pakistan in September 2009.

A spokesman for the Department of media relations Pakistan Army categorically denied the presence of American troops in the North and South Waziristan.

Waziristan, part of the undisciplined Pakistan federally administered Tribal areas (FATA), is considered a hub for the militants, including al-Qaeda and the Taliban Afghan factions that cross the border to attack US troops in Afghanistan.

"No American troops are involved in military operations in FATA,", said the spokesman.

The cables of WikiLeaks could hurt the image of Pakistan's powerful army.

He faced rare criticism after a raid of US special secret forces who killed the al-Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden not far from the capital, Islamabad this month.

The army ordered the assault, which has seriously the links between the two countries, as a violation of the sovereignty of Pakistan. But the Pakistani invectives generals of the country because they did not know about the raid.

Anti-Americanism runs high in Pakistan, in part because of unmanned U.S. aircraft strike on militants, who are considered as a violation of the sovereignty of the U.S. ally and killed civilians.

Disclosure of alleged U.S. troop deployments came a day after another set of cables showed that powerful armed Pakistani leader not only tacitly accepted secret U.S. drone campaign against militants, but asked "continues coverage of predator" tribal areas by these aircraft. The army has denied the content.

Peshawar has seen many operations by Taliban militants who seek to overthrow the Government of Pakistan-backed the U.S. and was home to bin Laden in the 1980s where Islamists have been against the Soviet occupation of the Afghanistan.

Al-Qaeda and its ally, the Pakistani Taliban, vowed to avenge the death of bin Laden, by special forces us on 2 may, and the group to take targeted the Pakistani Government and its Western allies.

"The diplomatic personnel of the countries of NATO is our goals," said Ehsanullah Ehsan, a spokesman for the Taliban, Reuters via telephone from an undisclosed location.

TARGETED AMERICANS

The Americans have taken to before target Pakistan.

In April 2010, activists with a car bomb and guns attacked the Consulate of the United States in Peshawar. The Pakistani Taliban claimed responsibility for the operation. Eight people, including three militants, were killed. No member of the mission was wounded.

Pakistan has been a jump in violence since the death of Osama bin Laden, whose suicide twin bombing last week that killed more than 80 people, most of them paramilitary recruits.

The Taliban have kept pressure on the Government with suicide bombers despite several offensives armed against them.

The United States want to Pakistani nuclear weapons to be a reliable partner in its war against militancy. Cooperation between the two allies is necessary to stabilize the neighbouring Afghanistan.

Links have been severely damaged since the secret raid that killed the bin Ladens. Pakistan is under pressure to explain how he spent what appeared to be about five years in a military not far from the capital city.

The Pakistani army was furious by the operation, describing as a violation of the sovereignty of the countries of South Asia.

The Pakistani army warns us not to stage Raids more

The Pakistani army is out of his silence Thursday on the raid of commando U.S. who killed Osama bin Laden, recognizing its own "gaps" in efforts to find the leader of al-Qaeda but threatening consider cooperation with Washington is there another similar Pakistani sovereignty violation.

The tough-survey was a sign of anger in the army. Also, it appeared designed to placate politicians, the public and the media in the country in what is considered by many as a national humiliation by a very unpopular America.

While international concerns are centered on suspicion that the elements of sheltered security forces bin Laden, majority of Pakistanis seem more upset that American soldiers uninvited flew into the country, landed on the ground and launch an attack on a House - and that the army was not in the current and unable to stop them. It is produced in a town in the army, next to an Academy military and close to the capital added embarrassment.

The links between the two countries were already tense before the raid because of the American allegations that Islamabad was not to punish the Taliban Afghan factions shelter on Pakistani soil. Pakistan was angry on drone strikes U.S. rajouteraient and the case of Raymond Davis, a CIA contractor who killed two Pakistani in January.

While the US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said Washington would continue to engage with Pakistan, the benefits of raid on Monday added a new layer of tensions to a relationship that is crucial to stabilizing the Afghanistan and allowing American troops begin to withdraw this year.

The United States a need for cooperation of Pakistan for, among other things, carrying supplies to the forces of NATO in Afghanistan. Washington gave the Pakistani army more than 10 billion dollars in aid over the last decade to help him fight against the militants.

The tone of the army statement was a contrast to the initial response to the raid by the civilian leadership of the country. Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani has hailed the operation as a "great victory" but made no mention of concerns about sovereignty.

The army statement was issued after 12 of the country's top generals met with Army Chief General Ashfaq Kayani, regarded as the most powerful in the country man, to discuss the operation and its implications on "military for relations with the United States."

He said that Kayani told his colleagues that he had been decided to reduce the number of us military personnel at levels "minimum essential". The statement gave no more details, and an army spokesman refused to elaborate. The United States about 275 declared military personal U.S. to Pakistan at any time, some of them help to train the Pakistani army. The US authorities were not immediately available for comment.

The case Davis has also led to criticism of the army after that it supported an agreement which allows him to walk free after the United States agreed to pay compensation to the relatives of the victims. Some media reports indicated Kayani requested a reduction of us military personnel then, and it was not clear if statement Thursday which covered.

The army for the first time acknowledged "shortcomings in the development of intelligence on the presence of Osama bin Laden in Pakistan." But he said his agency Inter-Services Intelligence had arrested or killed 100 al-Qaida terrorists and associates with or without the cooperation of the CIA.
