I think it has been an effective program but the killing of civilians should be avoided.

And of course, it is happening with PA's approval and complicity.

Nek Muhammad is the hero of Waziristan now:

After Mr. Muhammad was killed, his dirt grave in South Waziristan became a site of pilgrimage. A Pakistani journalist, Zahid Hussain, visited it days after the drone strike and saw a makeshift sign displayed on the grave: “He lived and died like a true Pashtun.”

Maj. Gen. Shaukat Sultan, Pakistan’s top military spokesman, told reporters at the time that “Al Qaeda facilitator” Nek Muhammad and four other “militants” had been killed in a rocket attack by Pakistani troops.

Any suggestion that Mr. Muhammad was killed by the Americans, or with American assistance, he said, was “absolutely absurd.”

There was no agreement, otherwise zardari would have produced such agreement.

Musharaf era drones were truly targeting the terrorists, while us-zardari approved drones were ethnic cleansing.

What part of the article appears to be a lie to you, Sir?
