Pakistan threatens to pull out of "war on terror" if US attacks continue

Pakistani protesters chant slogans against government as they hold a placard reading 'Pakistan army, you have pleased America a lot, let us please Allah (God) now' at a rally to condemn military operations against militants and Talibans in Pakistan's tribal areas, Friday, Sept. 12, 2008 in Peshawar, Pakistan.

An aide to former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif issued the threat hours after 12 people were killed in the latest in a flurry of suspected U.S. missile strikes into Taliban and al-Qaida strongholds in Pakistan's lawless tribal belt along the border with Afghanistan.

Well, can you blame them??
