Pakistan: 4 or 5 Terrorists Died in Strike
By RIAZ KHAN, Associated Press Writer

PESHAWAR, Pakistan - At least four foreign terrorists died in the purported U.S. airstrike aimed at al-Qaida's No. 2 leader in a Pakistani border village, the provincial government said Tuesday.

A statement, issued by the administration of Pakistan's semiautonomous tribal regions bordering Afghanistan, also said that between 10 and 12 foreign extremists had been invited to the dinner at the village hit in Friday's attack.

It was the first official confirmation by Pakistani authorities that foreign militants were killed in the attack on the village of Damadola. Women and children also died, triggering outrage in this Islamic nation.

The statement did not identify who the foreigners may have been or who was the target of the missile strike.

If you're going to a jihad party, don't bring your wife and kids.

The irony of any security agencies is that you won't see any results, which means they are or possibly are doing their jobs well.

How do you measure the fact that we have not been internally attacked again since 9/11? Should we only fund the FBI or CIA if we are attacked?

The fact is by agencies doing their jobs you don't seen anything happening.

This is the same reason why a good contractor has a problem keeping PM contracts. If they service it right and nothing ever breaks down the customer doesn't see the need for it.

And we have Bush to thank for no child left behind. He couldn't stand the realization that 5th graders were his intellectual superiors.

Can an average 5th grader find Norway on a map?

If so, then yes they got a leg-up on the commander-in-chief.

Wello, he just did what dems/libs said and poured money into a system that does not need money. D.C. schools have proven that.
