Former Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf on Monday said the United States had violated Pakistan’s sovereignty by sending in Special Forces to kill Al-Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden.Yes, I'm sure if we tipped them off nobody would have said a word, right?
US President Barack Obama had ordered the raid by a small team of US Special Forces, which found Laden, who had evaded capture for a decade, in a home in a fortified compound in Abbottabad city, located 50 kilometres northeast of Islamabad and 150 kilometres east of Peshawar.
“America coming to our territory and taking action is a violation of our sovereignty. Handling and execution of the operation (by US forces) is not correct. The Pakistani government should have been kept in the loop,” Musharraf told an Indian news channel.

Well, of course, 9/11 was not a violation of anyone's sovereignty, was it, Pervez? Pervez? Come in please, I can't hear you! You've been aiding and sheltering OBL since 2005 at least, and YOU are complaining about violations of national sovereignty? Pervez? Pervez? I still can't hear you!
