A US drone has killed at least eight people, dubbed “suspects” and reportedly including foreigners, after firing a pair of missiles against a house in the North Waziristan Agency of Pakistan.
The house was in Miramshah and was attacked during Iftar dinner, the traditional breaking of the Ramadan fast immediately after sunset. The bodies were recovered after the drone left.
Local officials say they have no indication who any of the victims were, but that it is not unusual for militant factions to move into the mountainous suburb of Miramshah during the summer because of the seasonable weather.
US drone strikes have become a major issue in recent months in Pakistan, with huge opposition among Pakistani civilians and the incoming government promising to “revoke” the secret approval for the attacks. Since the attacks continue, it remains to be seen how or even if the Sharif government will react.
handy work of the number one threat to any sort of peace…on this planet…

{At least 65 have been killed in overnight airstrikes carried out by US forces in Afghanistan’s eastern province of Paktia.}
This is genocide and CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY, where responsiblity lies with Obama, the first black president. HE MUST BE TAKEN TO ICC to see why he is killing Muslims in large number on daily basis either by drone or his trained CIA terrorists in different Muslim countries, otherwise 'lawyers' at the ICC are viewed as PIMPS. The world is witness to US/Israel crimes against humanity but ICC not only is silent but cooperates with their agenda going after victims like Qadafi, Al bashir, or Dr. Assad and leave the real war criminals alone. Shame on you all.
