All rubbish it is supposed if Pak Army has been telling the truth regarding their own Targeted Achievements at Northern Areas, then the following News is not real you know better than me who is more reliable & credible as well:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/urdu/pakistan/2009/05/090514_ispr_briefing_fz.shtml
This is my blind faith whenever Pak Army stood against their own People they lost the Credibility if you may start from, East Pakistan, Baluchistan, Jamaia Hafza & now at Northern Areas they totally lost their Credibility, honor & reputation. But when they stood against India in 1965 the entire nation was standing with them.
