More lies exposed
For several days after the air strike on the Pakistani border that killed a large number of innocent civilians, we heard reports that the Pakistani government had confirmed that a number of al Qaeda big wigs had also been killed in the raid. Now, it appears that somebody goofed. The Pakistani government says no al Qaeda members were killed. Once more, it sounds as if a reporter was spun a tale by someone in the US government and wrote it as though it were fact.
Pakistan PM: CIA attack reports 'bizarre'
No evidence that top al Qaeda leaders were at target, he says
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Pakistani Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz on Sunday ridiculed as "bizarre" a U.S. report that senior al Qaeda leaders were killed in a CIA attack on a home along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border.
"There is no evidence, as of half an hour ago, that there were any other people there," Aziz said on CNN's "Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer."
"The area does see movement of people from across the border. But we have not found one body or one shred of evidence that these people were there."
