The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff says the Pakistani military, “believe we did this intentionally.” General Martin Dempsey, speaking during a question and answer session sponsored by the Atlantic Council in Washington, was referring to the NATO airstrike that killed 24 Pakistani troops two weeks ago. Dempsey said it’s “incomprehensible”that they would believe that based on U.S. military relationship building efforts.
