Predators Aflight Raining Death on North Wazoo
This is right on the Afghan border, near where some enemy were zapped returning from A'stan for R & R last week.
US Predators struck again in Pakistan's Taliban-controlled tribal agency of North Waziristan today, killing 20 "militants" at a camp on the border with Afghanistan.

Unmanned Predators or the heavily armed and deadly Reapers fired at least six missiles at a training camp and a vehicle in the village of Bangi Darra in the Ghulam Khan area, just north of Miramshah, the main town in North Waziristan.
We're shooting a lot more missiles nowadays - somebody important must have a missile factory in his district.
As the factories have ramped up production, we can shoot more of the many targets that present themselves. Given the natural limit of targets is the 2%-10% of Muslims estimated likely to actually take up jihad rather than merely talk tough, and our limited manpower under arms, I don't think it's just that someone is influencing the generals in the wrong direction.
More than 20 "militants"
Tomorrow they will be known as civilians, mostly innocent women and children.
were reported killed in the strike, according Geo News. The Associated Press of Pakistan reported that 15 Taliban fighters under the command of Hafiz Gul Bahadar were killed in the strike. Several "foreigners," a term used to describe al Qaeda and Central Asian fighters, were reported to be among those killed. No senior al Qaeda or Taliban fighters have been reported killed in strike.
Nobody wants the job of senior AQ - life expectancy is too short - so we're working on propagating that mentality lower in the ranks.
