More on the recnt mass Wazirazap
March 17, 2011: In Pakistan's North Waziristan, an American UAV strike killed over 30 people, including at least ten Taliban and al Qaeda members, including a senior commander. The usual Pakistani politicians and generals condemned this as a violation of Pakistani sovereignty, and yet another senior terrorist leader threatened attacks on senior Pakistani government officials if the attacks were not stopped. The Taliban claim they arranged the meeting to mediate disputes between two tribes. American intelligence believed it was a meeting between the Taliban and leaders of two tribes that supported it. The Taliban and its tribal allies were furious that the Americans discovered the time and location of the meeting, and within a few days four men (including a visiting Afghan) were accused of spying, and killed after being accused of spying for the Americans.
