Attack on Haqqani Network

Attack on Haqqani Network


There was an attack on the Haqqani Network that killed at least six people. The Haqqani Network is a Pakistani military group that is blamed for the attacks on NATO forces in Afghanistan. The strike was aimed and at least one house on the network and the missile hit one house. The house was owned by Maulvi Azizullah, who was a member of the Haqqani Network as was considered the most dangerous threat to the NATO forces in Afghanistan by U.S. military officials. The leader of this network is Jalaluddin Haqqani. It is known that the Haqqani Network is allied to the Taliban. The Haqqani used to have support from the U.S. back in the Soviet War, but since then, the Haqqani has turned against the U.S.

Since the Haqqani Network is allies with the Taliban, then there is probably a good chance that they would be involved in future terrorist attacks. If the Haqqani knows that the U.S. is prepared to take them on aswell, maybe this attack will make them reconsider any plans of attack. Then again it could only anger them, and fuel the fire. Since the Haqqani is the most dangerous threat to our troops and the NATO troops, then yeah there is support for the attack on them. This is a precaution that is probably a very good thing. Nobody in the U.S. wants anymore of our troops to be harmed. In order for the lives of the troops in Afghanistan to be safe and secure, then these actions must be taken .
