Civil and military Pakistani leadership is enjoying luxurious life and governance in the fortified palaces and has left the tribal people for dying by the US' drones' strikes except giving protesting and condemning statements only and only verbally....
it is matter of time when 16 years old waziris will have learnt the technique to bring down the babies on their terrain! what the iranians can do the waziris can do as well with the software which Siemens now buy from the pashtun youth from the tribal lands.

Same old story - Pakistan officials knew there were militants in compound but did nothing about it - American's attack with drones and Pakistan confirms deaths. How about starting a new trend - Pakistan uses it's own aircraft to attack militants and send them a message to leave Pakistan or die.
We need to have these Taliban carpet bombed
IK Dont become irrelevant. organize a peace march to north waziristan
Drones, please carry on your good work regardless.
