It all started in the time of Gen Musharraf and it was his sole responsibility to devise a strategy to stop these attacks. If the first strong ruler failed to stop US attacks, why should only the next ruler be accused?
There is no proof that Gen Mushharf ever allowed these drones and he has himself denied this.
Number of attacks was very low and Musharraf said the following:
"The United States seems to think that what our army cannot do, they can do. This is a very wrong perception. I challenge anybody to come into our mountains. They would regret that day," Musharraf said in an interview to Straits Times.
Deccan Herald - Mush to US: Don't dare enter Pak
So the first ruler did everything possible and kept the enemy at bay. These attacks are far deadly and frequent since Musharraf left and Zardari is no Musharraf.
If you are relating the Image of PA with drone attacks, why PA allowed such attacks and provided bases for them in the first place?
Everyone knows that Gen Musharraf provided every type of support to US forces. The discussion now is "Are drones still operating from Pakistan?".
how do you know that drones are flying from Pakistan??
Why do you trust people who have political affiliations with forces against Pakistan?
Why do you trust a US senator who is not trusted by her own country?
What else was Musharraf supposed to do? When the entire world was supporting teh US due to 9/11 he couldn't sacrifice Pakistan for the sake of Afghanistan.
Nawaz Sharif and BB along with other political leadership supported this deccision.
Qazi Hussain would have doen the same if he was the President.
WE all Pakistani want that Armed Forces be respected but it will not materialise with just wishful thinking. Your action speaks louder than words. Actions should reflect the policy. We can't do anything to improve this image untill armed forces themselves think about their own image.
So it is okay for our politicians to go and beg Generals for Martial Law? Bigger responsibility is on politicians because they ask for our votes and promise to serve this country.
In order to stay on this topic, my questions are:
Is there any proof?
All attacks happen in day light and everyone has seen these drones coming from Afghan side and going bakc to the same side.
Has anyone seen these drones flying in and out of Tarbela area or any other Pakistani AB?
Can we trust Sen Dianne?
Can we trust GEO?
