This just hit the wires....the only place reporting it that I can find is here at KUNA so the article is pretty brief and sketchy so we're not sure if these are all Taliban or if there were also al Qaeda involved here but an American predator drone has attacked in North Waziristan and there are 10 Taliban dead, five wounded.
I have a feeling about this one, folks. I gotta feeling we got some high levels in this attack. First of all, to get 10 dead in a hellfire attack is unusual and throw in five wounded and we had to have been looking at some sort of a meeting going on. Keep your fingers crossed...I know I will be.
The other good news here is that this is two days in a row now that the hellfires have rained down on North Waziristan, Pakistan - hopefully, we will see an attack each day of the weekend as well. I gotta believe that this province is literally teeming with Taliban who have fled the South due to the Pakistani military operations.
Can you say...."Shooting Fish In A Barrel" ?

From what I've read this week the Pakistani military has invaded what amounts to a Taliban state in the NW tribal areas. The Taliban fled so fast they left weapons, food and gear behind. Hopefullly they are scattered across the Himalayan foothills with winter coming on wishing they had grabbed that good sleeping bag and heavy coat. They are fucked.
