EMBARRASSING
Taliban hijack NATO convoy in Pakistan. A convoy carrying supplies for NATO forces in Afghanistan was hijacked by the Taliban in Pakistan's lawless tribal belt. Thirteen containers of NATO supplies and at least one US Army Humvee were taken by the Taliban as the convoy traveled through the Khyber tribal agency en route to Afghanistan. "About 60 masked gunmen popped up on the road and took away the trucks with their drivers. Not a single shot was fired anywhere," a Pakistani government official told Reuters. "Baitullah's men are behind this as they're very well-equipped and trained," he said. Baitullah's fighters proudly paraded a captured US Humvee through Khyber immediately after the convoy was hijacked. "His men were taking a joy ride, [Baitullah's] flag waving from the side of the Humvee, a masked, armed man sitting on top waving at a camera," ABC News reported.
