The left is unanimous on Afghanistan exit but divided on drone use in Pakistan.

When you hold a gun to your own head with finger on the trigger and threaten to pull the trigger on a daily basis, sometimes you stumble and pull the trigger by mistake. In Pakistan's case, it has happened and it still expects sympathy from rest of the world. Pakistan can still clean up the mess by not encouraging 'non-state actors' on its territory.

Great article, I am glad some others have the same opinion. The US has its own interest foremost. It does not care if a few thousand are killed in the process, they are technically collateral damage. A few billion, however given as aid however put you in jeopardy, as now you have to comply with the demands of the giver.That has been the story always, wether it is the left or right in US politics. Thgey try and brow beat Pakistan whenever they can. It is time Pakistan disengage itself from the US orbit, get a back bone and things will turn around.

Because the people running the affairs of the country are really not interested in the interest of the very country they are representing but rather in their own petty issues.

People are well aware of how many Pakistanis have died in comparison to the towers. The sympathy is lacking because you don't even do anything that shows you care that it happens. Just because you sit back and let your citizens die, it doesn't mean it's a heroic war effort. It's being lazy and two faced.
