"I accept resonsibility. They were my men. I gave them orders in reaction to US drone attacks," Baitullah Mehsud told a news agency.

A gunman armed with two pistols injured dozens more in the attack in Binghamton, New York state, before turning the gun on himself.

The killer, believed to be a 42-year-old Vietnamese named as Wong, blocked the rear exit of the centre with his car before entering and opening fire.

Police chief Joe Zikuski said the man went into the building at around 10.30am local time (3.30pm UK time) on Friday.

Congressman Maurice Hinchey, whose district includes Binghamton, said the gunman had recently lost his job at IBM in Johnson City.

Mehsud last week claimed responsibility for an attack on a police station in the Pakistani city of Lahore that left at least eight cadets dead and dozens more wounded.

"My Men," "..I gave them orders"...

If you're gonna give a false confession in order to gain attention at least get the facts straight. It was one gunman.

that explains it...

You'd think there'd be an officer or 2 around the immigration office. 13 dead is unacceptable, somebody needs to be held accountable for restricting these people of the 2nd ammendment rights! :mad:

If this were true, it would be a great example of blowback! However, I'm sticking with my theory that a good anti-depressant did the job!

Taliban Link To NY Shootings Discounted (http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/World-News/New-York-State-Shootings-FBI-Discounts-Pakistan-Taliban-Link-To-Shootings/Article/200904115255725?lpos=World_News_First_Home_Article _Teaser_Region_0&lid=ARTICLE_15255725_New_York_State_Shootings%3A_F BI_Discounts_Pakistan_Taliban_Link_To_Shootings)


The FBI has discounted claims by the leader of the Pakistani Taliban that he was behind a shooting spree in New York State that left 14 people dead.

Investigators outside the American Civic Association in Binghampton, New York State



Militant leader Baitullah Mehsud made what was seen as a surprising claim of responsibility for an attack on a US immigration assistance centre in Binghamton.

Thirteen people were killed, and many others wounded, before the killer turned the gun on himself.

Referring to Mehsud's announcement, FBI spokesman Richard Kolko said: "Based on the evidence, we can firmly discount that claim."

Mehsud told the Reuters news agency in Pakistan that his group was responsible.

Speaking by telephone from an undisclosed location, he said: "I accept responsibility. They were my men. I gave them orders in reaction to US drone attacks."

The FBI doesn't appear to be utterly clueless.

Next the Taliban will be recruiting pirates. Or dragons.

Maybe the U.S. government can subsidize the pirates to fight the ninjas?
But then, we will have a pirate problem after the ninja's have been dealt with.. then we'll have to subsidize the remaining ninja's to combat the pirates.
But.. then, after the pirates are taken out... we'll probably have problem with the dragons. So we will have to subsidize the remaining ninjas and pirates to fight the dragons.

Ahem. When the Government sanctions the pirates, they're called "Privateers" :)
