‘Every Person Is Afraid of the Drones’: The Strikes’ Effect on Life in Pakistan

“Interviews with people living through the drone strikes in Pakistan’s tribal areas are human reminders that America’s drone campaign affects not only those hit by missiles, whether rightly or wrongly, but also innocents all around them.  Our drones are attacking the community where they live.  The American public is told by the Obama Administration that drone strikes are surgical. Precise. That they ‘limit collateral damage.’ And that civilian casualties are rare. Is that the truth?  Does it adequately capture reality?  Ponder a few interviews from the report — decide for yourself.”
