Who did the Pakistanis kill to cause the terrorist to kill these two soldiers? Who was the Al Qaeda spy chief that was killed and was this related to that killing? Any thoughts?

I pinged you to the latest info.When did jihadists need a good reason to execute someone?

I'm amazed they released the other hostages. Especially if the Pakistanis killed an important al-Qaeda member.

"Shah declined to comment on speculation the slain man might be Abdullah Ahmed Abdullah, an Egyptian also known as Saleh or Abu Mohammad al-Masri, who is listed among the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation's 22 "most wanted terrorists."

Abdullah Ahmed Abdullah was indicted by a U.S. grand jury for the bombings of U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, in which 224 people were killed in 1998."

This is the first info I've seen on "Abdullah" and who he might be. Interesting. Thanks.

Maybe it explains why only 2 of the hostages were killed.

I wish that the media would stop using the word "executed" as a synonym for "murdered".

Two Pakistanis Executed MURDERED by Al Qaeda Militants

There. That's more like it.

The hostages, among 14 kidnapped government men, were found in a ditch near a well late on Monday, shot in the head and chest, close to Wana in rugged South Waziristan where they worked as district officials, the military said.

With all respect to these (and the many other) Pakistanis who have sacrificed in the fight against islamofacism... The fact that the islamofascists didn't cut off the heads, hold them up smiling for internet video, etc, in their normal death-loving style, is a welcome sign that they are hard pressed.
