File under: al-Qaeda in Pakistan

#1 Is this the same attack?
Per Roggio:
US Predator strike aircraft fired missiles at a compound and a vehicle in Pakistan's Taliban-controlled tribal agency of North Waziristan today, possibly killing four civilians.

Unmanned Predators or the heavily armed and deadly Reapers fired a pair of missiles at compound and a vehicle in the village of Ahmad Khel in the Mir Ali area in North Waziristan.

Pakistani intelligence officials claimed that four "militants" were killed, but a Geo News reporter on the scene of the attack said that those killed "seemed to be ordinary citizens, not terrorists."

If the Geo reporter is right then the Pakistan authorities are trying to give cover. They will back off and holler now though. Alternative - Geo reporter may be falsely reporting on orders of AQ in order to cause us to back off.
