#3 Up to 23...

The strikes occurred within minutes of each other, the four Pakistani intelligence officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to brief the media.

One missile hit a vehicle carrying five men, while the other struck a nearby compound, killing 18 people in the Shawal area, which lies along the border that separates the South and North Waziristan tribal regions.

Difference between a 20lb warhead and 500lb bomb. I'd like to see the US bomb every Pakistani jihadi camp barracks at 3AM one night.
