if the "suspected" turns out to be true, this is at least one thing that isn't changing the with the new administration.
it's hard to get much information about these kinds of attacks. they are often accompanied by claims that X number of al qaeda members were hit, or that some alleged high priority target who has never been mentioned before was killed. but reporters rarely get to the scene. most of those claims are never independently verified by anyone.
which makes me wonder whether the strikes do more harm than good. the big problem in NW pakistan is the lawlessness. and that's not something a drone launched missile can help with.
