Militants in Pakistan kill 2 alleged US spies
Source: Associated Press

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP) — Militants killed two people they claimed were spies for the United States and dumped their bodies with a warning in a Pakistani border region at the center of a campaign of suspected American missile strikes, an official said Saturday.

Fighting reported elsewhere in Pakistan's volatile northwest left 29 militants and three Pakistani soldiers dead.

Police found the bullet-ridden bodies of the two men on Saturday in the North Waziristan tribal region after a tip from residents, police official Gul Marjan said.

"See the fate of this man. He was an American spy," was written on notes pinned to each of the bodies found in the village of Ghulam Khan, Marjan said. The notes said the men were from the neighboring Afghan province of Khost.

2. Sun Tzu & Spies
Therefore there are five kinds of spies used:

Local spies, internal spies, double spies, dead spies, and living spies. ?

When all five are used, and no one knows their Way, it is called the divine organization, and is the ruler's treasure. ?

For local spies, we use the enemy's people.

For internal spies we use the enemy's officials.

For double spies we use the enemy's spies.

For dead spies we use agents to spread misinformation to the enemy. For living spies, we use agents to return with reports. ?

Therefore, of those close to the army, none is closer than spies, no reward more generously given, and no matter in greater secrecy. ?

Only the wisest ruler can use spies;

only the most benevolent and upright general can use spies, and only the most alert and observant person can get the truth using spies.
