Just heard form a business contact in the region who does business with some of the tribal leaders. Word is they got a HVT. A BIG HVT!!! Now that part of the world is subject to big tales but my friend thinks this one was real and solid. Time will tell.

I shall stretch the string between me and the tin cans af a couple of my pals here and there reeeeel tight and see what they have to say about what's up. If I don't get an answer from a couple of the key ones, they're out celebrating, which should mean Good News.

There was more to that raid...then we know.I found this at LWJ.

US forces launched a controversial helicopter strike in South Waziristan in a village just one mile from the Afghan border just two days ago. A senior US military intelligence official and a US military officer, both who wished to remain anonymous, told The Long War Journal the strike involved a "handful" of US helicopters and special operations teams. The official and officer would not comment on the target of the raid.

TEAMS?

More than one makes it very interesting...
