Drone strike kills son of militant linked to Taliban, al Qaeda

The son of a Taliban leader was killed by a U.S. drone the other day. Three other Taliban members were killed in the strike. The killings were confirmed by a Taliban member. he was a commander in the Haqqani Network, a militant group located in Pakistan and has been accused of attacking the US and international forces in Afghanistan.

This is of World importance because it only increases the tension between the Middle East and western cultures. It will only cause more attacks to the US forces and possibly directly to the US counrty and western influences in the Middle East.
