Pakistan threatens sanctions against U.S. over bin Laden raid

Pakistan's parliament threatened Saturday to cut off access to a facility used by NATO forces to ferry troops into Afghanistan, signaling a growing rift that began when U.S. commandos killed Osama bin Laden during a raid on a Pakistani compound.

A resolution adopted during a joint session of parliament condemned the U.S. action. It also called for a review of its working agreement with the U.S., demanded an independent investigation and ordered the immediate end of drone attacks along its border region.

Failure to end unilateral U.S. raids and drone attacks will force Pakistan to "to consider taking necessary steps, including withdrawal of (the) transit facility" used by the NATO's International Security Assistance Force, according to the resolution.

U.S. lawmakers have questioned how the world's most wanted terrorist managed to live in plain sight for years in Pakistan - near the country's elite military academy - without being detected.

    These people are the most insane lunatics Ive ever heard of there way of thinking leave me in fear. There crazy cruel and fanatics its frighting to me when I read about some of there beliefs which seem to mostly deprive people of basic rights of living and if you a women or female just forget about having a education, a opinio, or a say in politic, government or life. There very brutal and vicious as people to hide such a evil man as bin laden well I can only be more suspecious of these people I just do not trust them. They bomb there own people what care do they have for others. If you are a female in these places your quality of life is subject to a man that can do as he please and you have lttle say. The human right injustice is enough for me to never trust these people. There evil evil evil evil to bad we can't just bomb them as well. They scare the hell out of me.

      Kim silly Indian....why not reveal your true Indian name? Pakistan was not hiding Bin ladin, Binny was hiding in Pakistan, just as the 19 hijackers once hid sucessfully in the US, after all its hard to find terrorists who look and act civilian.

      Take India for example, two of the men on their most wanted list were found in a prison and one at home, all the while Indians were blaming Pakistan for hosting them. haha

    We had to recite, from memory, five hundred lines of English poetry to think about getting out of high school.
    I wish the teacher who made me do it were alive to read these comments.

    "They are" contracts to "they're," not to "there."
    "There" is sorta like "not here."
    I also believe that "they" should not deny anybody an education.

    I remember, in Catholic elementary school, getting my knuckles rapped with a hard wooden ruler by Sister Mary Elephant. All because I missed one word when reciting the Lord's prayer.

    @ Details .... Ya that's old school teachings. And most ppl actually were better at writing , reading , math and science back in that day with out the aid of a computer. technology does have some value but the pitfalls are very evident in today's youth. And if i got anything wrong in this post... pls forgive i an nursing a cold.

    We all passed.
    The goal then, however, was not "no child left behind."
    One did it because it was possible to be left behind.
    I saw a classmate crying after the last day of school one year because he had to repeat that grade. He grew up to be a professional baseball player and probably made more money than any of the rest of us.
