"You're just avoiding the real question which is that the drone attacks are not nearly enough effective as advertised by your friends in the US army."
Neither the U.S. military nor the C.I.A. comment one way or another on the effectiveness of PREDATOR and REAPER. As to tactical reconnaissance drones, they won't be leaving our inventory anytime soon. They're incredibly effective.
"It's an American custom to spill innocent blood in foreign land. Please, don't try to conceal your crimes."
I'll only respond to this diatribe with respect to Afghanistan but America is there with forty other nations by the invite of the legitimate government of Afghanistan and under the mandate of the U.N. Crimes? It's not us that are providing sanctuary and it's not us that are killing the bulk of the afghan people-
"In the first six months of 2009, 59% of civilians were killed by AGEs [Anti-Government Elements] and 30.5% by PGF [Pro-Government Forces]."

The taliban kill Afghan civilians at a rate of 2:1 to ISAF forces. This, despite all that "
overwhelming firepower" we sling around. That doesn't count all the blown limbs from IEDs-the taliban's preferred method of engagement. Many were INTENTIONALLY targeted to promote fear. That's why we call them TERRORISTS, btw. When not killing afghans, the taliban are equally noted for their propensity to use these unfortunates as human shields to avoid destruction at the hands of ISAF.

Don't discuss
crimes with me when you haven't got a remote grasp on the facts as they're on the ground and there isn't a nation one that's on your side of this issue.
"That's sweet irony at its best."
Only a fool would find sweet another bomb exploding in Peshawar as confirmation of your "
irony". So what menace have YOU let loose?
It was Pakistan's decision to provide the enemies of the U.N., Afghanistan, and ISAF with sanctuary. These enemies infected your tribal lands with their rhetoric. Your leadership elevated their status in the eyes of these impressionable tribals with their fawning attention. Those lessons weren't lost on these men and they've emulated what you freely will send to Afghanistan but won't accept for yourselves.
No kidding.
Get rid of the sanctuaries and you can again hold your heads high. Maintain them and Pakistan is a pariah in the eyes of every nation in Afghanistan. There's NO justification that will permit Pakistan the luxury of waging war and not bearing the consequences.
That's exactly what you do now with sanctuary. Only a fool would believe otherwise.
Thanks.
