Nine people were killed Friday night when a suspected U.S. drone struck in Pakistan's North Waziristan near the border with Afghanistan, two local officials said.
The dead consisted of two children, two women and five men, Pakistani intelligence and administrative officials said.
The U.S. military routinely offers no comment on reported drone attacks. However, it is the only country operating in the region known to have the ability to launch missiles from drones, which are controlled remotely.

if it wasnt for america the whole world be a stink hole like allahs ass
The so called terrorists are winning and you likely will soon be standing in a bread line. Your US dollar will be worthless. Read history.
Word
Farewells. They are probably now with their Prophet sipping chai and bathing themselves in milk and honey with their 72 virgins. So really no harm is done here, right?
You people are sickening. How can you see nothing wrong with killing innocents? You have no knowledge of what terrorism actually is, or where it really comes from in the modern world. You've been corrupted by the horrible corporate media, to the point of thinking anyone we attack must be a terrorist. That's a fairy tale, of the worst kind.
Who created Al QUAEDA? Read some history.
Below is a sample of the faceless COWARDS within america comment on this forum. I have no doubt this represents over 75% of this country. Where's the "innocence"? There is nothing innocent about these genocidal terrorists who believe they're "protecting" their "freedom" to justify the mass murder of others. These cowards must be dealt justice in the strongest terms and without restraint. These crimes will be answered sooner and later.
"lance
good kill keep it up !"
"CityJailer
If you believe there was woman and children there, the your a nut. And if so WHO GIVES A CRAP!!!!!!!"
COWARDS, Calm down, take a deep breath. Now carefully construct an intelligent argument. Choose your words slowly.
I know you can do it. Let's not add to all the hate. Well maybe you can't.
hi there
if the army beleive that there were terroist (even children and women) then why they (army) dont go by themself and kill them in face to face fight...like men???? we know army have best wapons in this world..
saeed face to face what the hell you talking abought
Saeed, Pakistan will not allow UN forces on it's soil. They do allow drones and like to pretend they don't.
Why don't the Pakistanis clean up these Taliban themselves?
It's going to be a huge problem for them.
Okay, let's take a guess. I bet the next terrorist attack plan comes from a disgruntled family memeber of the visctims – the vicious cycle repeats...
Flo, can you give us your plan for peace and security?
its a truth, india-America are allies not only to invest more in those criminals in neighbouring afghanistan, also to train them to enter into Pakistan, india has max. no of consultaes in afhnistan, all on pakistani border ...why is that ?? pakistan has given evidence to USA but india is also illegitimate child of USA like Israel so they would allow them, they are investing in these criminals to put pressure on paksitan...and they woud nt want this issue to finish so that they have a caseu to stay in this area....USA is definitely a v v criminal minded country ...wake up Americans we have to get rid of this policy of CIA – why dnt we withdraw our forces from Iraq Afghnistan ...alll that they say .....and get surety ....
Truth,
India has counslates in Afghanisthan and is forerunner in that country's reconstruction, whats your problem? its not your contry. India has consulates in Pak too. Did you forget who loaned you folks out when your country was facing bankruptcy after independence, its India not any of your muslim brother country.
it's racist blaming a drone
lmao
Read this please (any comment)
if the army beleive that there were terroists (even children and women) then why they (army) dont go by themself and kill them in face to face fight...like men???? or use Drone against people have guns...
Saeed, let's say you're flying a drone. Your mission is to kill the enemy. You observe several enemy enter a building.
BOOM! If that was my home I would not let them enter or at least my family would leave if they did. There is no safe zone
or refuge in war. Don't become part of it. Teach you kids not to be part of it. Tell your friends not to be part of it. Peace
be upon you.
ALL WAR IS A CIVIL WAR , A FRATRICIDAL WAR. KILLING IS LESS THAN THE LESSER OF TWO EVILS AND IS NOT A SOLUTION TO ANYTHING. tHESE CHILDREN WILL DEVOTE THE ENORMOUS POWER OF THEIR HUMAN MINDS TO DEVELOP EVEN GREATER VIOLENCE USING NEW AND CREATIVE METHODS TO DESTROY. AN ENEMY FOREVER IN EVERY CHILD WHOSE PARENTS ARE KILLED. VIOLENCE BEGETS VIOLENCE. PEACE IS THE ONLY WAY OUT OF THIS MESS. war will evolve to ever more deadly repercussions. What if one of these Muslim chidren discovers something worse than a bigger bomb? We must be aggressive about one thing only...pursuing PEACE. self check for hate...this world is getting smaller and there is no more room for animosity. The haves and the have nots must see a distant future together.TOGETHER. We need leadership more than ever....societies are devolving...how many dominoes are left to fall?
to storm1212
face to face if the dorne from US/Pakistani ARMY then they should go on foot and fight this terroists insted of using dorne. because when they go to fight face to face sure children will not come to fight because they can't hold havey guns. about women we dont know are they suuport men or not... in this way the army will avoid killing inocent children.....but they have plan to kill all family memebers then this will be other story..
khandahar airfield has come under attack. http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2010/05/22/afghanistan-insurgents-nato-base.html
I used to have fantasies of aggression, just like most of us do...but now I see just 2 options for us and one leads up, the other slides into death of our species. We have to learn from the past.
what needs to be done is take out all the muslim men and educate the kids that should work
who cares we've been bombing sand people for 20 years why is this news
The United States is not the only Country operating remote Drones capable of making strikes anywhere , China also has the capability but nobody talks about it. For years China has been stealing Military tech from the Americans and copying it , its what China does best they copy stuff and then turn around and do some weird stuff of their own with stolen technology .
Muslims and Arab Leaders know that the West is sensitive to the loss of human life esspecially children and they see it as a weakness , this story is obviously a setup and could easily have been sombody other than America, I mean unless sombody would have to provide evidence that it was American and I doubt we will ever see that .
