US drone kills three in North Wazoo
2011-11-01
[One Pakistan] MIRANSHAH, Pakistain -- A US drone strike on Monday killed three Islamic fascisti in Pakistain's northwestern tribal region, a hotbed of Taliban gunnies near the Afghan border, officials said.

The drone fired two missiles into a moving vehicle as it drove through a village near Mubarak Shah town about 15 kilometres (nine miles) east of Miranshah, the main town in North Wazoo district, Pak security officials told AFP.

"Three Islamic fascisti have been killed in the attack," one security official said.

"The vehicle was moving. There are reports that four Islamic fascisti were killed in the strike but we are verifying the death of the fourth turban. We have confirmed the death of three others."

The identities of the dead were not clear.

A similar attack on Sunday killed four Islamic fascisti in Datta Khel town about 30 kilometres (20 miles) west of Miranshah.

Covert CIA drones are the chief US weapon against Taliban and Al-Qaeda Islamic fascisti who use Pakistain's lawless tribal areas as launch pads for attacking US troops in Afghanistan and plotting attacks on the West.

Under President Barack The Cambridge police acted stupidly Obama, the United States has drastically stepped up drone strikes in Pakistain but it refuses to discuss them publicly.

The latest attack is the 60th US drone strike reported in Pakistain so far this year.

Dozens of them have been launched since Navy SEALs killed Al-Qaeda leader the late Osama bin Laden

in the garrison city of Abbottabad, close to the capital Islamabad, on May 2.

Relations between Pakistain and the United States deteriorated after that, and again over accusations that Pak intelligence was involved with the Haqqani network, blamed for a siege in September of the US embassy in Kabul.

Around 2,000 Paks staged a demonstration outside the national parliament in Islamabad Friday to demand an end to US drone strikes, claiming they kill more innocent civilians than Death Eater leaders.
