Those Taliban folks, frequently called the “life of the party,” are at it again. In Pakistan.
Beitullah Mehsud, an Islamist leader from the South Waziristan tribal area in northwest Pakistan, called several international news agencies in Pakistan to assert responsibility for the armed occupation of the police training compound that ended with 11 people dead.
He also told reporters that he was planning to attack targets in the U.S. capital in retaliation for more than 30 strikes by unmanned U.S. drones that have targeted suspected al-Qaeda and Taliban sanctuaries in northwest Pakistan near the border with Afghanistan.
Hilarity! They can’t even take over a mailbox or whatever in the wild-west (Pakistan) but they think they can explode our own Washington DC? They will need to muster three hundredfold more oxen than were used at Lahore to accomplish this feat. I doubt very much that they can drum up such an army!
