CIA Predators Strike For Second Time Today, Four Jihadists Killed In North Waziristan Drone Attack…
Feel good story of the day part II.
Via LWJ:
Unmanned US drones struck in Pakistan’s Taliban-controlled tribal agency of North Waziristan for the second time in 24 hours, killing four “militants.”
The Predators or the more heavily armed Reapers fired a pair of missiles at a compound in Miramshah, the main town in North Waziristan today, according to AFP and Geo News.
The exact target of the strike has not been disclosed. No senior terrorist leaders or operatives were reported to have been killed in the attack.
The Haqqani Network, a Taliban group that operates in North Waziristan as well as in eastern Afghanistan, administers the area where today’s attack took place. Al Qaeda leaders and operatives, who are closely allied with the Haqqani Network, shelter in the area, as do other terror groups.
The strike is the second in 24 hours. Earlier today, the CIA-operated drones killed 10 Haqqani Network and Central Asian fighters in an attack on a compound in the village of Tappi, just outside of Miramshah.

“CIA Predators Strike For Second Time Today, Four Sovereign Citizens Killed In North Dakota Drone Attack…
see how easy that headline changes…
only 4?
Yep, the same drones will soon enough be doing the same thing to US citizens over THIS country, the USA, thanks to the NDAA and the recent bill for authorizing drone flyovers in USA. Wake up, you dumb fucking morons- all this bullshit is coming home to YOUR neighborhood, then all you fascist neocon warhawks will be running for cover. How’s that make YOU feel, Zippy?
Sweet.
@Aim_Upward: the difference is that the domestic versions of these things aren’t armed. The day they are, there will be backlash.
As for the Pakistanis, we wouldn’t be there if they weren’t harboring the Taliban and Al Qaida. At least here we’re making the effort to identify targets instead of carpet bombing entire villages to “pacify” them.
Your “moral equivalence” is not.
And how many children?
