Did you spare the little time to clink on the link which is a column that mentions the research?
But I'll save you time
Paper is titled :- New Light on the Accuracy of the CIA’s Predator Drone Campaign in Pakistan
Authors:- Matthew Fricker, Avery Plaw, and Brian Glyn Williams
Published in :- Sentinel (June 2010 issue)
The June issue will be published online in the next couple of days. You can access it at Combating Terrorism Center This does not mean that I inherently agree with their findings, methods or views. I wanted to present to you a scientific study rather than urban jargon.
Sorry sir i did not click that so thats why i was asking and i smelled that you might be talking about Sentinel but i wanted to get it confirmed first and then reply you.
Bellow i am quoting something
"The magazine , the CTC Sentinel, was started in December 2007 as part of the effort to shore up morale among soldiers and support the civilian war lobby in the United States. It would not be surprising if the “researchers” cited were linked to U.S. military and intelligence agencies.
I would place about as much faith in these numbers as I would on findings, were they to exist, by “researchers” at the al Qaeda Militant Academy Counter Imperialism Centre, that claimed that of those killed on “9/11″ only 3.5 per cent could be confirmed as civilians, while 77.2 per cent were reported to be imperialists or suspected imperialists"
And oh i forgot to mention that Sentinel, is the magazine of the US Military Academy’s Combating Terrorism Centre (CTC).
Sir i think you were supporting their point of view thats why you posted that as proof.
But with involvement of US military this research can not be called neutral and scientific.
I want to bring a friend here who is from NWA and from the area of hardcore fighters he has relatives, the entire tribes there who can give you first hand reports of actual count of deaths and how many civilians die in each strike in waziristan.
So sir please you and others sitting in US atleast give some room to the people's information who are actually based in these targeted areas.
