Deja Vu?

On January 12th, the U.S. may have resumed their drone attacks in Pakistan, and may have killed Taliban leader Hakimullah Mehsud. This is not the first time U.S. officials have believed Mehsud to be dead; early in 2010, a missile strike conducted by the American military was thought to kill Mehsud, but it was later discovered that he survived the attack. This time around, confirming the kill is being delayed until officials are sure he was killed. Coincidentally, a strategically placed bomb killed 14 Shiite Muslims at around the same time. It is still unclear who is responsible for the attack. What is interesting is that the U.S. has, or so it seems, proceeded to end the hiatus on the drone attacks in Pakistan. How will the government react?
