Website that Found Article:http://www.nytimes.com/

Link to Article: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/10/01/world/asia/01peshawar.html?_r=1&ref=world

Belief about the topic: The Article Title "Signaling Tensions, Pakistan Shuts NATO Supply Route" is about Pakistan Shutting down the supply route. That route was the border route where the trucks supplied american and NATO forces into Pakistan.  An helicopter struck on the pakistan side of the border for the fourth time of the week. Had killed three members of the Pakistan Border force.

Brief Summary: The article called "Signaling Tensions, Pakistan Shuts NATO Supply Route" is about Pakistan closing the supply route. That route was suppose to let trucks that is supplying american and NATO forces in afghanistan. There was a helicopter that strike the fourth time this week in the side of the pakistan border. The border closing,and the exceptional strikes by the aircraft, as opposed  a general rise in tensions between Pakistan and the United States. Also, the C.I.A pulled out records of number drone attacks inside pakistan in this month. The border that was closing was a clear demonstration of the leverage Pakistan holds over the American war effort. The Pakistan government said that the cross-border strikes were more that it could bear. Also without Protests. He also said "We will have to see weather we are allies or enemies" said the Pakistani interior minister, Rehman Malik. 

Chosen this article than another: I chosen this article than another because it was kind of interesting about what happen within pakistan and united states already. How we send forces to pakistan. But we cant do that anymore because pakistan closed the border from united states and Pakistan. Also i want to write about what we were mostly talking about in class and not something random such as a new car came out. Thats why i chosen this one than other articles that was in the new york times website.

Connection Article to the Unit:  I chosen this article about pakistan because its relating of what we are talking my my global class. The topic we are actually studying is about the early civilization, china,iraq,mesopotamia, and etc. But Mr.Giambalvo said i could atleast write about Pakistan ,So i did.  That is the connection i have with the article and to the unit we are studying right now.
