Pakistani police say assailants have fired rockets at tankers carrying fuel for U.S-led troops in Afghanistan, setting at least 10 vehicles on fire.

2. They would rather be killed by the taliban and al- qaeda intentionally

let them starve, no more aid, let them sell their cheap textiles elsewhere. If they worked with us to identify their oppressors and killers they would be better off.
I guess they are afraid of corrupt intelligence agency, who protected BinLadin all those years and still protecting Mullah Omar.

4. I agree, leave them alone to their own making.

We wouldn't provide anything better to the average Pakistani.
