Drones - More lies and cover ups
Tonight, NBC released a bombshell story on the government's drone targeting program, indicating that the U.S. isn't always certain of who they're targeting, despite assurances otherwise.
"The CIA did not always know who it was targeting and killing in drone strikes in Pakistan over a 14-month period, an NBC News review of classified intelligence reports shows.
About one of every four of those killed by drones in Pakistan between Sept. 3, 2010, and Oct. 30, 2011, were classified as "other militants,” the documents detail. The “other militants” label was used when the CIA could not determine the affiliation of those killed, prompting questions about how the agency could conclude they were a threat to U.S. national security."
"The documents also show that drone operators weren’t always certain who they were killing despite the administration’s guarantees of the accuracy of the CIA’s targeting intelligence and its assertions that civilian casualties have been “exceedingly rare.”...

Only countries with little or no self respect for itself or its people can allow other countries to fly drones in their airspace and go on to kill and blow up innocent men, women and children or is it that someone stands to gain some dollars by keeping quiet and allowing this things to go on and on
"..going into depression and loosing their peace of mind and sanity once they see the pictures of the carnage done by the drones "
I don't think that's true. It is like a video game to them. The thrill of the kill exhilerates and makes them go for more..
Next 20 years, I will order a pizza by drone services. And if the drone made a mistake, my pizza will end up in 'other militants' tummy. I protest against these inaccuracies of drone services.
and there are stories and news articles about this guys with the joysticks who handle this drones from their bunkers far away of them going into depression and loosing their peace of mind and sanity once they see the pictures of the carnage done by the drones that they have been controlling on instructions from their paymasters in washington
next 20 yrs will be 1000 drones made in china hehe
Ok BG , just shades and medical kits ... They will live happily ever after, its not my country anyway!
built n destroyed again by drone attacks so waz the use
BG , pak said they don't want more drones attacks, but thats clear bluffing's they cant even see the drones coming... Only built more medical facilities to prevent more civilian deaths.
why does pak or any another country need missiles or ambulances just leave that country alone from attacks or drone attacks n let them live in peace n harmony
Pak needs anti drone missiles who are in stealth modes, I think they need more ambulance to those far flung mountain villages to immediately tackle the injured persons , much less there where doctors without boarders there in place .
Getting back to the topic..
I have written to local papers and politicians regarding drone attacks. The simple question is "who watches the watcher".
Drones, whilst a great weapon, need to be used properly and for specific targets. At present it is all too easy to "justify" their use which is leading to deaths of innocent civilians..
People who believe in 9/11 are same as Gorge Bush believed Iraq has WMD. and all those jokes about Bush in internet applies to them as well. :)
may be they r responding to 9/11 in iraq, afghanistan n pakistan
By the way NawaZ Sherif today has asked US to stop drone strikes in pakistan..
The same people who are burning flags and queing to get visa to USA..:) where is the proof that they r the same ppl who did 9/11 , and if they had done they had visa they dont need to apply again
Paranoia is the best weapon of each other enemies, give them back what they give and done in return, those in the middle caught in the conflict -- collateral Damage .
It was really funny see Obama's speech about Drones Strike on American and Drone Strikes on other places. :)
BG I was answering Painther posts, The same people who are burning flags and queing to get visa to USA..:)
who did that 9/11 Ukeng
BG drones are a reponse to 9/11.
u still r in dilemma abt 9/11
painther how else they are going to do a 9/11 if they cant't get there!
Hate Americans, burn their flags.......(but Queue in their embassy from early morning for visa); hypocrisy?
This is nothing new. Dronesoperators, like Snipers are basically a law unto themselves.
Yet confirming the accusations of many. Guess " other militants" could mean just about anyone then!
United Terrorist
Its Collateral Damage.....
But one person gets hacked by lunatics in the UK, now that is Terrorism.
that's the real terrorist.
so they have been killing innocent women and children all this time in the name of terrorism and getting away with it too.
