Demand drone technology? Demand? That "demand" will not go anywhere. Why would USA give us its drone technology?

I think it will, or at-least on "paper" it will. The government will play it like this:

1. You say that you gave "us" the drone technology and you continue as you wish.
2. US says: yes of-course.

Now the thing here is "us" in point #1 isn't us. It's the U.S.

Awam khush that now we are killing the "terrorists". This way US gets to land the drones on our airbases, saves them the time. We fuel them, they fly them and have all the more fun.

I don't trust one thing they say.... or what our "government" says....

Yes, we will always listen to our "USTAD". Teacher? No. The United States Technology Assistance Department.

Seems more likely to be a gimmick for both the American govt and PML(N).

Its not just the drone that is on the list. The weapon it fires the Hellfire will not be given to pakistan. Not for another 5 years atleast. So its just going to be the same old drama going to be repeated.

•Another Pew Research Center survey released on Thursday focusing on drone strikes indicates that American strikes abroad, particularly in Pakistan, Yemen, and Somalia are supported in just 3 of the 39 countries surveyed: Kenya, the United States and Israel.[2]
