Death and Dead Bugs

Don't you ever wonder what these people's names were and why they were killed? I imagine them, at home in the borderlands, good, decent hardworking people, struck down by a bolt from the blue. To judge what Canadians think of them, they might as well have been flies. Too bad they weren't white, you say?
Hey hey, Obama: how many kids did you kill today?

'US drone kills six in Pakistan'

Missiles fired by a suspected US drone have killed at least six people in Pakistan, close to the Afghan border, officials say.

The attack took place in Sra Khawra village in the troubled South Waziristan district.

The area is the stronghold of Pakistani Taleban leader Baitullah Mehsud.

There have been three dozen US strikes since August - killing about 340 people - and most have landed in the North and South Waziristan tribal regions.

Pakistan has been publicly critical of drone attacks, arguing that they kill civilians and fuel support for militants.
