Re: Drone success rate worse than terrorist targets
It's possible, but the numbers don't seem to match up with what I read in newspapers on causalities.
Or perhaps intel provided by ISI to CIA is wrong and meant to protect their talib assets.
But the best way to crush the taliban will have to be with boots on the ground. American or Pakistani remains to be seen. You can't fight a counterinsurgency just with air power.
False accusation. Check your facts again, please don't consult Cnn/Fox
It was ISI/PA which gave CIA the coordinates to Baitullah Mehsud, the target was locked on, tracked and let go by CIA.
So yes, perhaps CIA is protecting its TTP Talib assets (until recently when they put head money on Baituallah after oh...so many years).
The point is, desired target:civilian casualties ratio is not acceptable. Period. There's something called collateral damage when 100 extremists are targetted and 10 civilians get caught in the wrong place/wrong time. When it's the other way around, it's outright negligence and translates into suspecion as if U.S. is doing it deliberately.
Please use logic, not false rhetoric from American Headline news or you'll be among those people who actually believed Irack had WMDs and the search is still on. ISI is fighting against all odds including Mossad sponsored BLA/Raw n CIA sponsored TTP, so it is rather naive for any Pakistani to shift the blame to the nation's primary Intelligence Agency.
What was the last time CIA was accused and targetted by the world for their heinous crimes which include torture/smuggling of ordinary citizens on the "suspecion" of..../drug trafficking, and so on.
ISI is doing what it is supposed to do. You can keep believing the American gibbrish about ISI aiding TTP if you want, but you will not be having the last laugh when truth comes out.
