A former NATO officer says American special forces conducted several clandestine raids into Pakistan's tribal areas as part of a secret war in the border region. The source alleges the raids were conducted between 2003 and 2008 targeting high value Taliban and Al Qaeda targets, and only one was disclosed to the Pakistani goverment whose foreign office condemned it. What is the truth behind the U.S. military effort in Pakistan? Will the secret raids get in the way for Washington D.C. as they press for more CIA-led drone strikes in the country?
