| Quote: | A missile believed to have been fired from a US drone aircraft has killed up to 20 people in Pakistan's South Waziristan border region, Pakistani officials said today.
The strike targeted a house belonging to an aide to a local Taliban leader in what is thought to be a stronghold of Taliban and al-Qaida forces.
Up to 20 bodies were found at the scene, intelligence officials, quoting local sources, said. |
Surely, the US has got enough going on at home at the moment without launching missile strikes?
Officials haven't confirmed the strike but they haven't denied it either. _________________ Girls are like phones. We love to be held and talked to, but if you press the wrong button you'll be disconnected! |
