begins:
(AP) Fighter jets bombed Taliban hide-outs in Pakistan's troubled northwest 
while troops pushed into militant territory on the ground, killing at least 
40 insurgents in a 24-hour siege, the army said Saturday.

Separately, five others died when an explosion ripped through a house near 
the Afghan border, local officials said. Claims that it was a missile strike 
could not immediately be confirmed.

An al-Qaida website is reporting (falsely I think) that there was a 
ceasefire for the remainder of Ramadan. AQ groups always want a ceasefire 
when they are being cut to pieces.

Tribesmen torch Taliban houses in Bajaur
KHAR: Tribesmen in Bajaur Agency's Salarzai tehsil on Sunday formed a 
private army (lashkar) of around 30,000 people against the local Taliban. A 
local jirga decided to form the lashkar in the wake of the increasing 
presence of the local Taliban in the area. The lashkar torched 14 houses, 
including the house of a local Taliban commander. Tribal elder Malik Munsib 
Khan, who heads the lashkar, said tribesmen would continue their struggle 
until the Taliban were expelled from the area, adding that anyone found 
sheltering Taliban militants would be fined Rs one million and his house 
would be torched. The tribesmen also torched two important centres of the 
Taliban in the area and gained control of most of the tehsil. The action 
came hours after the government announced to stop the ongoing military 
operation against the local Taliban in Bajaur during Ramazan.
