Drone attacks creating hatred!

Don't know America is interested to realise or not that continuous drone attacks are creating more and more hatred against America.

Anti-American sentiments in Pakistan are already very high. Such attacks further enhance the level of hatred and produce negative reaction. Masses are already not very happy with the government for its affair with the US.

Instead US should share information with Pakistan and strengthen its institution to curb the menace by taking severe actions against terrorists. United States must also avoid playing double game with Pakistan. It has to come clean if it really wants to establish peace in the region.

Does anyone care about how the increasing amount of anti-US sentiment not only in Pakistan but in other countries whose civilians have been slaughtered by drones?

Does anyone care or are those deaths not newsworthy so long as suspected "terrorists" are killed as well?

So.. who suspects them... and of what? One thing our government knows well. Information is power. And we have none.
