Of the total fatalities, nine were laid to rest in Zirgai graveyard in North Waziristan and five were buried in Gungi Khel graveyard in South Waziristan Agency. The funerals were attended by hundreds of tribesmen and tribal elders. The dead included Dilfaraz Khan Wazir, his three sons Maitool Khan, Habib Khan and Ghulam Khan, and grandson Haider Khan. Talking to reporters, Malik Taj Muhammad Wazir, Malik Muhammad Azam Khan and others demanded of the Obama administration to take solid measures to stop drone attacks in the tribal belt.

#2  So they buried nine of the thirteen victims in one graveyard and five of them in another? Either someone can't do basic arithmetic or one of them was in enough pieces to be buried in two different places.

#1  The CIA's already pissed at Obambi for appointing Panella as its head. Obambi has to be very careful, or the CIA may conduct a pilotless drone attack somewhere else other than Pakistan. Obambi's behavior so far is very close to the same thing as kicking sand in the face of a dozen Navy SEALS.
