Odd way of saying thank you, especially when you consider the Pakistani Taliban is fighting to topple the government.

Via Washington Times:

Pakistan on Wednesday condemned a U.S. drone strike that reportedly killed the No. 2 commander of the Pakistani Taliban.

“The government of Pakistan has expressed serious concerns over the U.S. drone attack that occurred in North Waziristan,” Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

The strike reportedly killed Wali Ur Rehman, the deputy commander of the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan.

Three Pakistani officials told reporters that Rehman was among four people killed in the strike Wednesday morning in the North Waziristan tribal region near the border with Afghanistan.

Pakistani Prime Minister-elect Nawaz Sharif has criticized drone strikes and demanded an immediate end to attacks inside Pakistan.
