Re: Drone Dilemma : Dr Farrukh
It’s a great tragedy if even one innocent man dies with a dozen militants. If Hakimullah is ‘droned’ with 10 other innocent people, the death of those 9 people would be a great lose. But if Hakimullah continues to live, I wonder how many innocent people will anyway lose their lives to his philosophy of bloodbath?
Drone must have killed some innocent people. But those who died in Meena Bazaar Peshawar and Moon Market Lahore, among other countless attacks on civilians, were also innocent people.
I have no figures available with me, but I am sure they have killed more people in our cities than drones did in tribal region.
Question then arises, how many times a target leader was “hit” but later found roaming in other neighborhoods while many “terrorists” got killed in 1st action against him?
