Security officials said that the madrassa, or religious school, near Miranshah, the main town in troubled North Waziristan region, was set up by Haqqani during the 1980s "jihad" against Soviet forces in Afghanistan.

Why " Suspected US spy drones " ???? Any other nations using drones in that air space to bomb ? Or do those " security officials " ( who are they btw ? ) think that a huge pidgeon let go a wmd shit ????
By the way, that so-called terrorist pedigree :

Here are some facts about Haqqani.
-- A gaunt, ethnic Pashtun man with a long beard and, in the few photographs of him, always seen wearing a large turban, Haqqani is in his 70s. He won recognition as a rugged commander during the Afghan jihad, or holy war, against Soviet occupiers in the 1980s.
-- Haqqani's speciality was cave fighting in Afghanistan's inhospitable mountain ranges near the Pakistani border. He commanded mujahideen, or holy warriors, in the eastern Khost region from a nearly unassailable base in caves that later became a training ground for Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda network.
-- Haqqani had close links with U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and Pakistani intelligence services, notably the military's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), during the war against the Soviets.

He fought the occupiers then, why wouldn't he fight them now ???
