Analyst strongly condemns US drone strikes
Islamabad, Nov 17, IRNA -- A senior Pakistani defence analyst has said that the US drone attacks on Pakistani soil are tantamount to state terrorism against the people of Pakistan.

Talking to IRNA former Director General of Inter-Services Intelligence and defence analyst Lt General (Retd) Hamid Gul said that US is using Pakistan for its own purposes.

“US does not care about the sovereignty of other countries,” he said.

“Can they win war in Afghanistan? the answer is no, they have already lost,” Hamid Gul added.

1. These drone strikes wouldn't make us very happy if they
were taking place in our country, trust me. They need to stop immediately. And we have lost in Afghanistan, time to pull out of that hellhole.

2. Which is why Noam Chomsky says, and I agree:
"The US government is the largest state sponsor of terror in the world."

3. Drone strikes.
Too many Americans have a certain unbridled arrogance,that the world is our playground,and we can do what ever the hell we want anytime,anywhere we fee like, to anyone we want,as long as we can run roughshod over who we want to,but the dynamics have changed,and people are not going to just roll over and die,or submit to anyone occupying their land, but our Imperial minded leaders still believe that Might makes right,that is why we are having trouble with our wars today.
We keep spending and investing in endless needless wars and military and defense,to maintain US Imperialism
The days when military might alone could stomp adversaries into the ground and make them cry "UNCLE" is long gone and over.
But it looks like the US have not learned what their other former colonial masters have learned that Imperialism is dead.
Russia was the last one to learn the hard way,and We will learn that too,the hard way.
Those we occupy, are going to bleed us, until we die a slow painfully death,and i am afraid if these warmongers ever start a war on Iran,I think they will regret ever making mistake.
America has to start making and formulating policies for America,by Americans,and drop the super arrogant notion that we are the bosses of the world and that we can go all over the world putting up military bases in and around,everyones backyard,and they must not challenge this foreign infringement upon them and their territories
