    @raihak Funny, moving to Abbottabad was part of the 'being safe' strategy

    Since taliban (probably) don't have helicpoters, and since they're saying it was not "ours", so must be a complicated situation #abbottabad

    The abbottabad helicopter/UFO was shot down near the Bilal Town area, and there's report of a flash. People saying it could be a drone.

    @wqs figures, if they have the right to shoot planes flying over the president house, the must have the same instructions for PMA

    @smedica people are saying it was not a technical fault and it was shot down. I heard it CIRCLE 3-4 times above, sounded purposeful.

    @tahirakram very likely - but it was too noisy to be a spy craft, or, a very poor spy craft it was.

    Two helicpoters, one down, could actually be the training accident scenario they're saying it was >> bit.ly/ioGE6O

    A Major of the #Pakistan #Army's 19 FF, Platoon CO says incident at #Abbottabad where #helicopter crashed is accidental and not an "attack"

    The Major also says no "missiles" were fired and all such exaggerated reports are nothing but rumours #Pakistan

    I think the helicopter crash in Abbottabad, Pakistan and the President Obama breaking news address are connected.

    @kursed I think I should take out my big blower to blow the fog of war away and see the clearer picture.

    I guess Abbottabad is going to get as crowded as the Lahore that I left behind for some peace and quiet. *sigh*
