That's what happens, kid

WASHINGTON — An American missile strike in Pakistan’s northwestern tribal areas killed a senior commander of Al Qaeda who had been involved in planning attacks on United States and NATO troops in Afghanistan, American officials said Thursday.

You play around with those missiles long enough, sooner or later somebody will get hurt. And, Pakistan?

The American missile strike this week could signal an escalation in American covert action aimed at killing terrorist leaders and dismantling their networks in the tribal areas.

Covert? Not too.

Confucius (no I'm not a Confucius guy, I just happened to run across this the other day) said:

“If names be not correct, language is not in accordance with the truth of things. If language be not in accordance with the truth of things, affairs cannot be carried on to success."
