Gunmen kill teacher at South Waziristan school
2005-09-19
Gunmen on a motorcycle fatally shot a schoolteacher yesterday in a tribal town in northwestern Pakistan where Islamic militants are believed to operate, an official said. The two masked attackers fled after opening fire on Taj Ali in Wana, the main town in the South Waziristan tribal region, said Mohammed Wisal, a local government administrator. Ali, who was in his late 50s, died at the scene. He had taught at a school for the children of security forces and government officials in Wana. No one claimed responsibility, and Wisal would not speculate as to who was behind the shooting.
Who the hell do you think it was? (Who writes this crap?)

#7  if the Seminole name was outlawed by the NCAA.

Didn't you hear, the real Seminoles went to the NCAA and stated that they had no problem with the name, and NCAA backwatered like a Mississippi paddlewheeler in full reverse.

The name Seminoles as a derogatory term is a non-issue now.

#2  Ought to be a ten day waiting period to buy a bike in Waziristan. Might chill some of these folks out.
On second thought, maybe a ten year waiting period...

#1  I have started a modest campaign to inform my lefty friends about Waziristan (which none of them know of) by naming my fantasy football team North Waziristan. When anyone asks, I send a link to one of the many stories posted here. If they follow up (which is rare) it seems as if they think I am making it up - but maybe it will spur them to do a little research of their own.
