Pakistani Taliban Vows Revenge After Drone Strike Kills Deputy 
---------------------------------------------------------------


 
The Pakistani Taliban is vowing revenge against the government for its
alleged complicity in a U.S. drone strike that killed the group's deputy
chief. A spokesperson said the group was canceling its offer of peace
talks and accused the Pakistani government of providing information that
helped the CIA find Waliur Rehman Mehsud, who was killed by a drone on
Wednesday in North Waziristan, along with six other people.
