Two Canadians killed in Wana missile attack
2008-09-02
WANA, Aug 30: Four people, including two Canadians of Arab origin, were killed and two other people injured when a missile reportedly fired from Afghanistan hit a house in the Korzai area of South Waziristan on Saturday.
They could tell they were Canadians. They were wearing Canuckluks.
According to local people, a plane was seen flying over the area shortly before the missile hit the house of one Noor Khan Gangikhel near a scout camp in Wana at around 4.30pm. The injured, who reportedly belong to Punjab, were taken to a local hospital.
This is the same episode we reported a couple days ago...
AFP adds: A local intelligence official said the owner of the house had recently rented it out to some "foreigners".

If they are Arabs. I'd bet on Paki, myself.

#3  Me too Frank G. - thought it was a cross border action or something.

Also, isn't the description backwards - rather than two Canadians of Arab origin, shouldn't it read two Arabs who hold Canadian passports?

The whole . . . "you can take the man out of ..."
