LAHORE: At least 28 people were killed in three US led drone strikes in the remote areas of South and North Waziristan, a private TV channel reported on Tuesday.
According to sources, the first drone attack was occurred in Miranshah, where the drone aircraft pounded two missiles, killing at least nine people. In the second attack, the US led drone targeted Azam Warsak, some 25 kilometers west of Wana, the main town of South Waziristan tribal district, in which at least 12 people were killed.
The US drone fired five missiles at the office of Shamsullah, a commander of militant group, Maulvi Nazir Ahmed. Four US led drones continued to hover over the area after the attack, which caused great panic among the locals. Whereas, about seven people were killed in where the air strike targeted a vehicle in Bundh.
Good hunting and keep those hits coming.
I love the smell of smoked terrorists in the morning...smells like victory
My favorite line in the article.
I’d love a flat black painted B-52 drone. At night have it lit up. Send refuelers to keep it up for weeks, like some big black vulture.
The B-52 Vulture Drone!
or any place suffixion stan...
yeah...killing them with Rockets is better than
capturing them and then having to water board them
because that is torture you know.
y'all here think it cool that people you don't know kill other people you don't know...? you give a small $hit in your little worlds about those who do the actual deed...?
do you all understand what it takes to kill...? it aint so cool.
what a $hit sandwich. everyone take a bite.
I know what happened on 9/11.
I think it’s cooler than hell what the drones do.
Reality bites don’t it?
pissing off hellfires half a globe away a decade after the fact is simply senseless mayhem.
any consideration for those behind the trigger on those predators...? people lose soul when they kill without purpose.
what is the rational purpose of such an assault when we have decided to withdraw...? (i do not agree with withdrawral btw).
A $hit sandwich if you`re a terrorist. The only thing that pisses me off is that we`re not getting more of them. The fact the continued hover frightened the locals is golden. Muslims understand and respect but ONE thing... decisive, destructive force.
Afghanistan is flypaper country, a bite and hold war where we get to cull the fanatics and train our military at the same time.
I get that it’s unwise to desensitize oneself to killing, but the way I see it, every time a UAV operator pulls the trigger, he’s stopping some poor Afghan woman getting her nose sliced off with cheese wire.
That would keep me motivated. Even if Obama is busy declaring defeat, there’s still good work that can be done.
Senseless mayhem...when the place is still crawling with Taliban? The only “senseless” component to this is when our “leaders” make gestures toward negotiating with these vermin. Killing them THERE prevents them from killing us HERE.
The whining of a Massachusetts pacifist are the reason the Obama administration lacks the will and the ability to be at war. You will get us attacked and killed again.
I was thinking that a small fuel-air explosive warhead would be a nice weapon for the Predator drones. Lots of concussive force for when you have to attack a bunker, cave or blockhouse where a high-value target might be squatting.
You must have missed my sarcasm in my post.
In my world water boarding to extract intelligence is far
better than killing then with remote controlled drone attacks.

this world is and will remain a hostile place to your life and value set. this has been, is such, and will remain so... forever... get used to it.
there is no glory in educating an individual to destroy their sense of person and identity, so you all can feel pride about being able to blow the piss out of a family in a foreign land living in a mud hut drinking contaminated water from a bucket.
this is not american value, it is a cowardice. so far removed from our values that some now feel the need to reach out and touch a peasant... in eternal squalor, living in a place you wouldn't even let your dog crap in. i smell fear. fear emanating like bile from some who believe the left delusional..
