U.S. Drone Attack On Taliban Funeral Kills At Least 60

The New York Times reports that "an airstrike believed to have been carried out by a United States drone killed at least 60 people at a funeral for a Taliban fighter in South Waziristan on Tuesday, residents of the area and local news reports said... The United States carried out 22 previous drone strikes this year, as the Obama administration has intensified a policy inherited from the Bush administration."

Kudos to the Obama administration for this one. Whoever authorized this drone attack did the right thing.
