About damned time. This is going to get ugly, but waiting isn’t going to make it any better.

Dog, call me naive. What are the implications of this attack?

Don't ever be afraid to ask a question..

Someone had intel that a person of interest was in this house....and decided to lob a missile at the person of interest.

It also points to a more hands on approach by someone.

It was not clear who fired the missile

LOL! Coming a few days after Musharraf's loud, public "refusal" to allow American access to the border regions. Almost certainly that was a cover story.

JMHO, but smells like “somebody” just nailed a target with a Predator/JDAM/AGM-something-or-other.

If the report had come out with a number of women and children among the dead, the actual count would have included high-ranking AlQ, so guess we only got a couple squads of grunts.

Every little bit helps.

Yep. Here’s a related thread of a new US Base just opening for business 3 clicks from the border. Coincidence?

Intelligence officials said the dead were pro-Taliban militants, but residents said they were tribesmen staying at the house of a local elder in Khushali Tari Khel,

And the MSM wants us to think that those two statements are contradictory.

>>>>>>>It also points to a more hands on approach by someone.

In recent weeks the public proposals have been made by us to enter Waz, and Moosh has been protesting waayyyy too much.

Those data points confirm for me that “someone” is operating in Waz.

"Intelligence officials said the dead were pro-Taliban militants, but residents said they were tribesmen staying at the house of a local elder in Khushali Tari Khel, a village on the outskirts of the town of Mir Ali."

Yeah, blind women and children there to attend a wedding. We know the drill.
