Washington: The United States has a secret "retribution" plan to bomb every known al-Qaeda compound or training camp in the event of another 9/11-like attack on American soil by terrorists based in Pakistan, according to a new book.

Under this plan, the US would bomb or attack every known al-Qaeda compound or training camp in the US intelligence database, according to the book 'Obama's War' written by investigative American journalist Bob Woodward.

"Some locations might be outdated, but there would be no concern, under the plan, for who might be living there now.

The attribution plan called for a brutal punishing attack on at least 150 or more associated camps," Woodward says.Earlier US media reports have identified most of these camps to be located in tribal areas of Pakistan and in Afghanistan.

Woodward said the plan came to light when then President George W Bush likened the Mumbai carnage to attacks on the US in September 2001.

The former Washington Post journalist said on hearing about the Mumbai attacks, Bush called his national security team into the Oval Office and told his advisers, "You guys get planning and do what you have to do to prevent a war between Pakistan and India."

"This is like 9/11, he (Bush) said," Woodward wrote. "The United States military did not have "war" plans for an invasion of Pakistan. Instead, it had and continues to have one of the most sensitive and secret of all military contingencies, what military officials call a "retribution" plan in the event of another 9/11-like attack on the US by terrorists based in Pakistan," the book says.

The disclosures in the book come in the backdrop of recent stern warnings sounded by the Secretary of State Hillary Clinton that there would be severe consequences, if another 9/11 type terrorist attack was traced back to plots in Pakistan.

New book shares US plan in case of 9/11- type attack

i think pakistan should be ready for next 9/11 attack result whether that is fake or not
 
and US assumption is that whole of al quaida is based in Pakistan??
Why are arabs being excused from this?
 
Such plans ( like the Israeli Wrath of God campaign) do greater damage to the perception of the U.S among the International polity than any of their disastrous military campaigns in Iraq or Afghanistan......as they say pride goes before a fall.....
 
Shame on US such a puppet of world's most smallest country who dictate so called SUPER DUPER POWER ... called Unitedstatet of America...

this is going to sound harsh.. but the reality is that no arab states are indebted to US the way pakistan is. this is why US has no hesitancy in issuing the kind of statements it is issuing. When it comes to arabs, US knows it has to use different yardsticks alltogether. this should answer your question!!
 
We lost more than their aid could cover in the war (I think it was billions more, as well as a lot of lives, a potential ally and time wasted fighting wars). We shouldn't be debted to them. They probably want to get rid of us now (chewing and spitting out, as I call it) and saying that they're willing to bomb us to do it just tells us how friendly they really are.

Time to get our act together, and quickly! But everything seems like a dead end!
 
This action would be stupid since reports would be raised that the US didn't make sure whether innocent civilians were present or not. If this were to happen the US is going make a lot of enemies. I am pro killing Taliban just no innocent people, that just happen to be there and are usually also being abused by the Taliban.
