WASHINGTON, Dec. 15 (UPI) -- India's air force was preparing for a likely strike against Pakistan following the Mumbai terror attacks, Pentagon sources told CNN.

The report quoted three Pentagon officials as individually confirming the Untited States has information about Indian air force personnel preparing for a possible mission against Pakistan.

One official told CNN the Indian air force "went on alert" after the Nov. 26 attacks in India's financial capital. The attacks ended after three days, leaving at least 170 dead, including foreigners.

India, which captured one of the 10 terror suspects alive, says the suspect has said all the attackers were Pakistani nationals and that the massacre was planned by the Laskhar-e-Toiba militant group in Pakistan.

1. Great. So who do we support?

The democracy that was wantonly attacked, once again, by foreign extremists?

Or the dictatorship that we are allied with?

Anybody taking bets?

2. Didn't we supply f-16s to both countries? A little ironic no?
