Hakimullah Mehsud is Dead? 02/02/2010
According to reports, the Pakistani Taliban leader, who claimed responsibility for the December 30th suicide attack on a CIA base in Pakistan, died from wounds caused by a drone attack on January 14th.
Hakimullah took over from Baitullah Mehsud, who was killed by a drone attack last August. Perhaps being the leader of the Pakistani Taliban will become less of a prized job. Such turnover at the top also causes internal struggles and paranoia of infiltration.
Controversial drone attacks have both increased in number and effectiveness since Obama took over the presidency last year.
Now, I'd like to know, why can't we get Bin Laden already?
