MIRAN SHAH, Pakistan - A missile destroyed a suspected militant hideout in northwestern Pakistan near the Afghan border Friday, killing 10 people inside and wounding 11, security officials said.

It was not clear who fired the missile that struck a compound in Danday village on the outskirts of Miran Shah, the main town in the North Waziristan tribal region, an army official and two local security officials said on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media.

U.S. missiles are suspected of having struck alleged militant hideouts in the past, but Washington insisted Friday there was no indication the American military was involved.

“I saw a spy plane about one hour before the explosion,”

Too much coffee and a fun slip of the joystick BUMP

It’s going to be real interesting to find out who answered the door.

Indeed it will, although I suspect that those who did the knockin', already know.

I wouldn’t think it would be very wise to make a “whooshing” sound similar to that of a missile while in an aq or taliban meeting!

It was a gift from "allah".

It's peculiar that media is on the scene immediately after isn't it? And of course they find "anonymous" people whose word is to to be believed without question that "they saw a spy plane an hour earlier".
It's not easy to spot a tiny spy plane 2 miles up, that's why they are called "spy planes". It kind of defeats the whole purpose of "spy planes" if people can see them.

Yeeeeeeeeeesss???

"U.S. missiles are suspected of having struck alleged militant hideouts in the past, but Washington insisted Friday there was no indication the American military was involved."

This is another gem from Media. It should read:

"Alleged" U.S. Missiles are suspected of having hit Millitant hideouts in the past..."

anti- American media, showing their true allegiance, traveling around inside enemy camps without a worry. Maybe something can be "alleged" from that.
