UPDATE: The deaths from these missile strikes continues to rise - some reports now say 16 are dead, some are even saying 20. It gets sweeter and sweeter!This is fantastic news! The newswire services are all saying they don't know where the missile strikes came from but we all know where - these were missiles fired by U.S. forces in Afghanistan as we have seen over the past number of weeks, targeting key al Qaeda and Taliban leaders who are trying to hide in Pakistan. We have seen how effective this has been and it is exciting to see our forces unrelentlessly going after these scum. Look at this section from the article from Reuters:
Get that? "Arabs" were included in those killed - well folks, the only Arabs in Pakistan are al Qaeda. Now we have the waiting game that will in turn tell us which leaders we actually picked off in this strike. It was just a matter of three weeks ago that we saw 13 jihadists killed in the same area of NW Pakistan and at the end of January, U.S. missile attacks exterminated the vermin, Abu Laith al-Libi, the al Qaeda leader.
Bottom line here is the U.S. is getting awesome intel on the movement of these al Qaeda and Taliban leaders - the missiles more than likely came from drones but who is supplying this exacting intelligence to us is not know. Whoever it is, KEEP IT UP!
"Eight foreigners and four of their supporters were killed," said a district government official, who declined to be identified.
The nationality of the foreigners was not known but some residents of the area said Arabs were among the dead.

Missiles hit Pakistan's Waziristan, 12 militants dead
WANA, Pakistan (Reuters) - Up to three missiles struck a house in a Pakistani region known as a safe haven for al Qaeda and Taliban militants on Sunday, killing 12 people including eight foreign militants, officials in the area said.
The attack took place in the village of Shahnawaz Kheil Dhoog, near the town of Wana in the South Waziristan region on the Afghan border.
"Eight foreigners and four of their supporters were killed," said a district government official, who declined to be identified.
A military official said earlier that militants were believed to have been hiding at the house and seven of them were killed and several wounded.
It was not clear who fired the missiles but villagers said they had heard the sound of a pilot less drone in the sky before the blasts.
U.S. forces have used drones to fire missiles at militants on the Pakistani side of the border several times in recent years.
A missile believed fired by a U.S. drone killed 13 suspected militants in South Waziristan in late February.
