US drone 'kills three militants' in Miramshah
2012-04-30
[Dawn] Three Orcs and similar vermin were killed and two others maimed in a dronezap in Pakistain's restive tribal region near the Afghan border on Sunday, security officials said.

The drone fired two missiles targeting a jihad boy compound in Miranshah
... headquarters of al-Qaeda in Pakistain and likely location of Ayman al-Zawahiri. The Haqqani network has established a ministate in centered on the town with courts, tax offices and lots of madrassas...
, the main town in North Wazoo, known as a stronghold of Taliban and al Qaeda-linked jihad boys, they said.

This was the first drone strike since the parliament last month approved new guidelines on relations with the United States, which included a ban on transporting weapons through the country to Afghanistan.

"A US drone fired two missiles on a compound, killing three Orcs and similar vermin and wounding two others," a security bigshot told AFP.

He said that the compound in the market area of Miranshah was once a girls' school that was occupied by the jihad boys.

Another security official, who confirmed the toll, said the compound was used mainly by Uzbek and Tajik jihad boys.
So nobody cares what happens to them.

#1  Yesterday this attack was reported to have killed four, not three. One of them 'got better?' Or they have poor math skills? Or they figured there had to be more than three dead to account for all the pieces and parts?
