The base is in the Lakki Marwat district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.
Taliban spokesman Ihsanullah Ihsan said the attack was was revenge for the killing of their two top commanders, Faisal Khan and Commander Toofani, in a U.S. drone attack in Mir Ali area of North Waziristan last year.
The Ihsan blamed Pakistan for its cooperation with the U.S. on drone strikes.
"Pakistan has been cooperating with the U.S. in its drone strikes that killed our two senior commanders, Faisal Khan and Toofani, and the attack on military camp was the revenge of their killing," the Taliban spokesman said.
He said four of their suicide bombers attacked the army camp and blew themselves up in the base. An official said two of the bodies were found wearing suicide bomb belts.
In the rocket attack, 10 people were killed and five others injured in the Sara-e-Naurang area of the same Lakki Marwat district.
Police officials initially said the blast took place in a house but didn't provide further information about the nature of the explosion.
However local residents said a mortar shell fell on the house and caused casualties.

It's Obama's fault.
Gee, I think their pissed ..... :(
Extreme people doing extreme things.
i bet they blowed up real good...
ah, the religion of PIECE...
Now how does one enjoy 70 virgins with their junk blown up?
This sums up Clinton's (The Foreign Policy Guru ) past 4 yrs. Looks like Kerry is leaning FORWARD just like Clinton...
Either people like plain bob and fedupwithfed are just a holes who shouldn't be in this country and should have joined some of these victims. Or they are the type of people who spew without reading anything or knowing what they are talking about just so they can make a noise and hope someone notices. If your going to comment at least have a tiny idea of what your talking about.
Taliban is killing Bush and his team's "strategic allies" and their inventors, Paki intelligence, army and extremist Islamic clerics.
While Bush was relying on his pal, Gen Mush and his army to support NATO forces in Afghanistan, Gen Mush was hiding Osama in his backyard!
So it is all Obama's fault! How can't Obama act like brain dead Bush and his team?
Suicide bombers reaction upon reaching Paradise:
"Goats!!! I'm a martyr, where's my 72 virgins?!!!
Allah, "These are your virgins, you stupid dirty pig!"
@Carl
Ha! Ha! You stupid Putz!! Do you have morning prayers before or after you "read" this Bias s##*? No need to read, we all know it happened because of Obama's FAILED Foreign policy appointee's & weakness.
Suicide bombers reaction upon reaching Paradise:
"Who are you"
"I'm George Washington"
"I'm Thomas Jefferson"
"What?? Where are my virgins???"
"Oh, the didn't tell you...the rest of the story!!! You are to meet with 72 Virginians!!! Welcome to hell punk, did you really think your stupidity would get you anything better?"
Johnny boy do you not know who has been president for over four years now? Why is it you lefties deny any culpability yet always stand up to take credit.. Do you not wonder yourself why it is everybody doesn't buy into your lines of BS. It's almost like your selling snake oil. Please stop publicly nocking on doors, were not interested in denial of the last four years being your record good or bad. As for the Pakistani's well you should of thought about this when you housed them away from the American Military for all those years, they are like a rabid dog and will bite anyone. The best way to attack these fools is through their own ate up religion, get a Fatwa or whatever it is called going... these a$$ backwards people can be reconditioned there isn't a lot there to begin with. OK all you pascifists settle down I am saying they aren't smart, educated and are easily manipulated, it's undeniable.
Gee, does this mean the negotiating democrats need to go back to the drawing board? i don't think there is any question now that these people cannot be bartered with. The only thing a taliban believes in is brutality, and wish to die by their own hand while taking as many of the ENEMY with them. Life means little to someone who has never had anything but an AK-47.
Meanwhile we dump countless amouts of money into another country that does not like us.
But to listen to Obama we don't have a spending problem.
Only 31? The pissful and pious terrorists must have been very lazy today and it looks like they did not do their job or the holy duty with devotion and dedication at all! A minimum of 31,000 evil Islamist's should be sent back everyday to their angry Allah who is waiting in hell for them with wonderful gifts - 72 virgins, 12 young boys below 15 and unlimited supply of pure wine! Continue the holy and pious duties all you devil Islamist's and clean up all those filthy pigs and dirt's. We are really sick and tired of your cruelty, barbarism, destruction's and hatred! Disappear from the face of the earth all you lowlife subhuman creatures and only then, the world will be really peaceful!
Agree that it is part of Obama's failed foreign policy. WHY are we in talks with them and now Iran??? These guys are NUTS and to even think that we can negotiate with them is just either plain stupid OR part of Obama's plan. What better way to bring the US down than from within? All Obama has to do is look for patsies that will go along with him.
Good! Maybe the Pakistani army will decide that any 'agreements' with their local Taliban commanders are always going to be worthless. I hope that Allah sends the dead Taliban straight to hell.
I disagree.
Allah is not happy with his Islamic religious warriors, Taliban.
Taliban should take Paki nukes and nuke the impure Pakis starting from Islamic clerics, army, intelligence, politicians and others.
These impure Pakis have made Pakistan, a pure Islamic nation, as the most impure and dirtiest religious swamp.
Allah will pat Taliban only after cleaning Pakistan.
Murder, rape, kidnapping, general destruction...any excuse will do or no excuse. It's the Pakistani way.
GM Chef
Sounds like a remake of a movie , Pakistani version, of "the Good, the Bad and the Ugly" titled just "the Bad and the Ugly".
GM Chef!!
Remember the Taliban song after 9-11? Da Oh............daylight come and we bomb your home!!
GM jack!!!
GM Fed!!!
Both of you are a riot!!! Glad I wasn't drinking anything just now!!!
☺
mmmm, my neighbor just gave me a bag of REAL Columbian coffee! So happy to be alive this morning!!! Life is good!! Come on over!!
Life is very good. Enjoy the coffee. Actually, I've gotta try and get some sleep. HAGD!!! ☺
Sweet dreams!!
Good Moring Fed Up with Fed
I happen to be sipping on some great Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee, here in Barbados! Every other week, I alternate between Columbian and Blue Mountain. I work here in Barbados and prior to that worked in Jamaica! Nice to meet ya. Besides, I find humor is the better approach to life because laughing sure beats wringing the hands and crying!
and also Pakis imagine that being ungrateful and backstabbing are the ways to show they are smart.
Half of NATO forces deaths in Afghanistan are due to "strategic allies", Pakis.
Our politicians are equally smart: to please them pour more monies and supply more arms!
Of course, some politicians don't know anything other than helping, pouring money and soldiers in wrong places.
Hi Jack!
Mmmm....love Jamaican Blue Mountain too..but its too expensive here in the states! At least my brother in law told me he paid $30 for a bag of it when he came to visit and brought it with him!
Enjoy Barbados! I hear the water is crystal clear!
Fed Up with Fed
If we ever see each other in an airport, please do not say Hi Jack! LOL
The water is awesome here in B'bados! on the east coast is Atlantic Ocean with 10 ft waves and 15 miles away on west coast is Caribbean Sea with 6 inch waves and aqua color waters! I Scuba Dive quite often and the marine life is spectacular. Oh yeah, the rum is fine any time of year! LOL Enjoy the weekend and Super Bowl.
I shall......but I will NOT be rooting for the Ravens!! I would rather DIE first!
Violence will only bring destruction.
The way forward is always peace. And violence as a defense only.
If no one ever attacks, there is no war. All attacks should be considered criminal, and furthering acts of war.
Wish that were true...
I whole Heartedly Agree!
Allah Speed to those suffering there!
"Twelve militants and nine officials and civilians were killed in the fighting at the base, military authorities and security sources said. Ten other people were reported killed in the rocket attack."
Do Islamic religious wars come under your classification?
Only Allah is authorised to decide this issue!
When Muslims are battling each other, their own Allah can decide and not even other Muslim sect's Allah.
In Syria, Shiites Allah is guiding Assad and his team.
Sunnis Allah is guiding Sunni Syrian rebels aided by most chosen Islamic warriors al Qaida, MB and Salaffi!
GOD (Allah) said there will be days like this...
Who gives a fly'in' F@CK? Get the f@ck out and let the savages kill themselves.
WHO CARES? F@ck 'em all.
Did'nt Obama say the Taliban was done under his leadership?
Done looking for money. Now they have Obama to send them money for ammo and weapons. Oh and let's not forget Obama's Jet's for Jihad program.
Arizona
I think you're confused. It wasn't about Obama and the Taliban, it was about Senator Melendez of New Jersey getting some Domincan "TAIL".
No. But I think Bush did
prayers for the innocent who dislike war and died
prayers for the strong who want to protect others who are innocent
prayers to all worldly leaders who want peace without a monitary reward and wish safe haven for all race and religions
this is where god/ahlla light shines
When will Americans realize the ramifications of the cost Bush/Cheney polices for attacking Iraq on trumped up lies and distortions. The rest of the world know and is consistly reminded of the birth of Taliban fighters/terrorist killing anyone for helping perpetrate the lie democratizing the Middle East was in America's best everyone else interest. Now we are teetering on civil disobedience here in America against one another hoping to label this is the fault of those killers to whom were minimum before disruption of war. Now the war has escalated beyond control and may lead to a worldwide war leaving us vulnerable with hatred from abroad and within because of clash of cultures are widening. Hope and truth is a distant reality. We may be too far gone to revise the blunder.
WTFHAPPENED
Barack Hussine Obama and the Communist Democratic Party happened....Moron!
the taliban and these other factions existed long before bush,or did you forget that little FACT.
People like you happened:
As the polite way of saying "smart as a box of rocks". You and the President you hired, so because you don't know the Facts and Refuse to listen to the Historically Documented Facts, you have NO idea how the fix the problems nor handle the situations and just continue to state uneducated, no experience, non factual, emotive, OPINIONS (politically correct way of saying LYING like a MO FO).
FROM FIRSTHAND EXPERIENCE (SURVIVING MISSIONS).
BASIC KNOWLEDGE: US LAWS, US POLICIES, PRESIDENTIAL EXECUTIVE ORDERS DO NOT GO AWAY UNTIL REPEALED, OR COMPLETED.
President Clinton's US Law H.R.4655 Section 3 US POLICY OVERTHROW OF PRESIDENT HUSSEIN.
Section 2 Findings (Justifications) WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION
President Clinton's US Law, H.R.4655 "Iraqis Liberation Act of 1998" with US Congressional Appropriations (the other Demoncrap lie, Unfunded) as demanded by President Clinton's 1998 State of the Union Address "Weapons of Mass Destruction", "Overthrow President Hussein as US Policy"(including getting the US involved with Bosnia):
http://209.157.64.200/focus/f-news/1057063/posts
President Clinton's (NOT BUSH (43) "tried to kill my daddy" (Bush (41)) as more Demoncraps LIES, President Clinton's H.R.4655 Section 2:
Full Text of President Clinton's 1998 State of the Union Address (Courtesy Congressional Record):
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/special/states/docs/sou98.htm
President Clinton believed that the Cold War Era US Defense, US Intelligence Agencies (previously built up by Director of the CIA Bush, later President (41)), US Military were no longer needed.
President Clinton Gutted the US Intelligence Agencies that left the US Blind and Deaf to the Events leading to the 9/11 2001 Attacks (Bipartisan US Congressional 9/11 Commission (Committee) Investigations, Findings and Recommendations, former President Clinton saying "I'm a so sorry". The local Pro US intelligence assets Worldwide were no longer funded, so Intelligence from Afghanistan was no longer available (where Osama Bin Laden was or what he was doing). The US had to rely on information from "Potentally Hostile" Nations like Pakistan, Jordan, etc. as to where Osama Bin Laden was after President Clinton released Osama Bin Laden after the 1993 First World Trade Center Bombings.
Those of us that were the US Military Training Teams to US Ally Iraq during the Iran Iraq Wars stated our opposition, as we knew from firsthand experience that President Hussein was the Counterbalance to the Fundamentalist Islamic Shia Republic of Iran, using his own Iraqis Oil Wealth and the lives of the Iraqis Citizens of the Iraqis Military. We were threatened with UCMJ Actions, Detentions, Relief from Command, etc. so instead of jail;
In 1998 we went into Iraq and hired about a hundred thousand Shia Iraqis mostly from Iran as Illegal Aliens at Iraq to Overthrow Sunnis President Hussein. As Asymmetric Warfare using hatred and real or perceived injustices of groups to start a Civil War or Overthrow.
Due to President Clinton's Gutting of the US Intelligence Agencies, there were no local Pro US Iraqis intelligence assets to link up with, as they were no longer funded; so to survive and make money to feed their families, most of the previous Pro US Iraqis Intelligence assets had become Iraqis Counter Intelligence Agents, Iraqis Military Intelligence, Iraqis Law Enforcement (or Iraqis Secret Police), and they were waiting for us to attempt something. So the almost hundred thousand Shia Iraqis we hired as assassins and insurgents were captured, tried, executed as "Traitors" and dumped into mass graves. President Clinton spun this to "Dictator Massacred His Own People".
Because of President Clinton's Failure, the next was his as Commander In Chief Ordered 1998 US Military Operation Desert Fox. It was President Clinton's belief that by targeting the Iraqis Political Leadership, he would not have anyone to negotiate Peace (the step down of President Hussein from the Presidency of Iraq), so he Ordered the Airstrikes and Cruise Missile Attacks of the Crowded Urban Poor Areas of Baghdad. Again from experience, you do NOT f**k with the Poor of Islam, we then opposed and were restricted from Targeting, and only Target Damage Assessments. The Results thousands of the Poor of Islam died during the Airstrikes and Cruise Missile Attacks, Worldwide the over 1.5 Billion Islamic Believers condemn the US as the Great Satan. Osama Bin Laden starts planning the 9/11 2001 Attacks (same targets as during the 1993 First World Trade Center Bombings).
FROM FIRSTHAND EXPERIENCE (SURVIVING) THE WAR AT IRAQ STARTED WITH PRESIDENT CLINTON'S US POLICY, OVERTHROW OF PRESIDENT HUSSEIN AND US LAW WITH US CONGRESSIONAL APPROPRIATIONS. As since 1998 as President Clinton's US Policy we have been at Iraq conducting Overt and Covert Activities to Overthrow President Hussein.
Finally, after 2001 Operation Viking Hammer, 2002 Operation Hotel California, President Clinton's US Law H.R. 4655 "Iraqis Liberation Act of 1998" as 2003 Operation Iraqis Freedom, President Bush (43) as Commander In Chief has the US Military and NATO Military Forces complete the President Clinton US Policy of the Overthrow of President Hussein:
Unedited Transcript of the President Bush (43) Mission Accomplished Speech (Not the Bullsh!t Demoncrap Propaganda) Five (5) Pages (read all pages):
http://articles.cnn.com/2003-05-01/us/bush.transcript_1_general-franks-major-combat-allies?_s=PM:US
After reading the Facts above "coalition" (UN Mission, US, NATO Military and even the unarmed Japanese Defense Force Engineers), the President Obama LIE during the Reelection Presidential Debates, "Bush US Military Unilateral Invasion of Iraq" (youtube.com), also President Clinton (42) called this a "Liberation" not President Obama's (44) "Invasion".
KEEP ON DENYING THE HISTORICALLY DOCUMENTED FACTS, Rick-549809 , THINGS ON THE INTERNET NEVER GO AWAY.
And before you or anyone else starts name calling, Obey the Rules set on you by President Obama, from 2013 Inaugural Speech:
Those of us that did not vote for President Obama, nor anyone else do not have to obey that.
And instead of name calling, posting uneducated emotive opinions, etc. dispute the FACTS and Historically Documented References. I can prove the rest of your, Demoncrap, President Obama lies, if you want pages, plus the links, historically documented references, transcripts, testimony, etc..
the taliban shoots 14 year old girls in the street, why don't you go make friends with them?
You are correct Rick. We, USA & Western Europe allies (USA lapdogs), have killed/helped kill, in the middle east, hundreds of thousands, by wars, troops, bombs, drones, starvation, etc. We must also include Zion, who has since WWII to this day, been supported, supplied and armed (conventional and nuclear missiles ,bombs and conventional weapons and warplanes, drones, iron domes) by USA and Western Europe. Doesn't Zion have a nuclear missile that can reach New York? When will Palestine be a soverign nation with a real country: Their own government recognized by the United Nation, farmable land, water and freedom from Zionist oppression, land grabbing (happening right now) and killing? Big brother is watching US (including these words). What's freedom of speech right here in USA, on this string? What happens if Russia decides to help their proxy states and allies in the middle east? Even Zion cannot beat Russia. The USA soldiers who shoots sleeping families in Afghanistan, including 14 year old girls and boys. And it is not, as they would have us believe, one rogue, mentally ill soldier on a rampage.
I hope each of the suicide bombers get nymphomaniac wives that look like Hillary Clinton without makeup.
bob - that is too cruel! and totally uncalled for! Stop it now! roflmao
Janet Reno.
i'm not very political, but wasn't obama supposed to sit down and talk face to face with the leaders of iran? i laughed during his first campaign when i heard him say that and as far as i know he never has and never will.
Bob, are you enVious? ;)
Or failing that, Barbara Bush?
Hey Bob go blow yourself
Up ! :)
"Ammunition flies off the shelves as Americans prepare for the Obama Jihad"
it pays to be able to make your own, doesn't it?
bob - we will see when Iran gets done baking theirs???
They are without a doubt crazy enough to push multiple red buttons!
But I thought all these people were Oblumbler's friends???
Whne are we going to realize and accept that Muslisms having been fight and killing each other for 1000's of years. Our policies and wars are not going to change the course of history only they can.
Jeff, your point is well made. These same bronze-age primitives have been tearing at each other since long before Islam. Nothing good happens when we intervene; it only creates additional targets.
We spend millions per drone strike to kill an individual[s]. They spend a few hundred dollars and the lives of a few retarded homicide bombers and kill 30. What's wrong with this picture?
I will tell you. We are a bunch of pussies for not annihilating a village of these scumbags... men, women and children. And another village... and another....
the only people this Administration has the guts to "annihilate" are the unborns in this Country, who can't defend themselves.
i cant believe that some people are stupid enough to blame the american government for things like this . the taliban exists for one reason only that is to cause as much chaos as they can . the only way to stop them is to remove them totally every time a taliban fighter is captured they should be put in prison with no chance of parole that is how you stop their threat . also find those giving them money and put them in jail with their scumbag friends or maybe find a deserted island and put them all on it and let them fight it out among themselves . when the world realizes that these people are just thugs and eliminates helping them they will lose all their power !!!!!!
We know the "who" is that supplies the money. The only problem is "we" consider them our allies and they have those funny looking things in their yards that pump oil out of the ground and into large ships that head our way. Until we find a way to do without the product that they have we're kinda screwed.
BTW, don't consider me an Algore fan. I like fast cars that go vruuuuummmmmm and not silent electric ones.
I wonder if Islamic suicide bombers ever get a chance to cash their Social Security Retirement Checks?
(i'm sure that since Oblumbles has been President, he's put them all into our system along with other illegals too)
Now, npw, They weren't just the average everyday run of the mill Taliban they were Pakistani Taliban. What's the difference, color of turban? why create this confusion Taliban is Taliban to me.
What about Afghanistan and President Hamid Karzai---after spending billions of United States tax payers money--thousands of American men dead--and Karzai said that the American soliders were deams and the United States was the cause of all the corruption in Afghanistan--and now Obama wants to give the afgans alot of military equipment and money ---because of their failing economey--Tanks Obama
Hey you guys in DC. They dont want us there, thats why they keep killing us, and others. The people rebelling against the Egytian Tyrant want us to stop helping him. Thats why they the attacked our embassy.
We went to Iraq to bring a terrorist to justice. We found him hiding in a shallow dug out and killed him We went to Afghanastan to find another terrorist. We found him hiding in a complex and killed him. Mission accomplished. Pack up our stuff, put your check book in your pocket, and come home.
We have americans killing americans, but keep giving our resources to countries that have been in a constant state of war since the beginning of time. Those countries hate us, and hate every thing we stand for but you guys are intent on "westernizing" them. They dont want that, leave them alone. We can protect ourselves from them from afar.
Let's see what is it we are giving Pakistan a billion dollars a year? Tell them "sorry we have had an unforseen emergency here at home, so your pay off for being our frined needs to go on hold for a while". Divide that billion dollars by 50 states, give that money to the states and tell them to come up with assaylums for the criminally insane. Fund those facilities by not giving our money to other countries that hate us.
hermit1951 , you hit the nail right on the head with your post but the thing i see is these jerks got nukes (Pakistan) and they had to know that osama bin laden was over there. the thing i'm saying is i hope the Taliban or some kind of muslim brother hood dont take over in Pakistan and send their rockets and kill millions of people. sorry for any spelling mistake's , early in the morning lol
Hey hermit - you got to the root of the issue in 1/20th of the space that David takes to spread lies and half-truths!
that's funny we like to attack Pakistan as well. I guess when someone else does it it's wrong. Go America, a land that was once free.
Proof of once again Pakistan sacrificing their OWN sons for us here in USA .... As they had been for last 60 years . Against USSR as in Russia now and in developing the historical connection between Us and china , with US Budabere Airofrce base in North Pakistan in the 60,s and then the proxy war of USA against USSR (present Russia) AKA senator Charlie Wilsons War...... the very war that lead to final demise of the second balancing superpower leaving only one Superpower ie us .... I thank you Pakistan for serving our great country United States and I am sorry for your loss.
Mr, you gotta be bleepin me!
Be careful, taking the name of an infidel gonna disqualify you for them virgins. Just a warning.
I can't believe that some people on here are still blaming Bush for everything, C'mon people! your guy has been in there over 4 years now and it has only changed for the worse. Obama thought he could appease these idiots, but that is proving to be impossible so he just keeps upping the ante by arming them with greater weapons (Tanks and Fighterjets to Egypt), he is actualy doing more harm than good by trying to make friends with them.
Islamists are so fractionalized that making friends with one group means making enemies with the rest of them.
The U.S. should stick to it's policies of selling weapons to both sides, that way we speed up their ultimate demise at their own hands and make a buck or two while doing the world a favor.
Someone needs to convince the Pakistani military, that there is no "good Taliban" and "bad Taliban". Just wipe them all out!
Sleep witha Snake, Die witha Snake!
Jesus said in the endtimes the whole world will be sinning,including with wars,it will be as the time of Noah,and we may be in that end time now.So it may be too late for many having committed the unforgiveable sin of taking God's name in vain.But it may not be too late for others,or for you: Jesus said to his own disciple.all who take the sword perish by the sword,that's because the Bible says violence begets violence,and wars are violence.All life is precious and sacred to God.but in wars life is expendable,and God must comes first.So the violence of wars is evil,and the Bible says don't render evil for evil,it will destroy you.What's sown is reaped,again and again.So wars don't make the world safer,but less safe.Yet Media and the politicians say otherwise,they are not putting God first,but themselves first,despite what they claim to be doing.
Amen Al-3017247..
I enjoy these crude comments by pubs that simply don't know any better. They are frustrated because their bad policies and ideas have finally caught up to them. And the sensible public isn't buying it anymore. Instead of getting better ideas and candidates they use voter suppression and gerrymandering.
Pathetic.
