YOU SEE TODAY TWO NATIONS WHO STRUCK A BLOOD DEAL, WHO MADE A SECRET PACT TO KILL TOGETHER. ONE NATION THREW ITS CITIZENS TO THE "DRONE WOLVES", KNOWING MANY INNOCENTS WOULD DIE, AND THE OTHER NATION DID NOT SO MUCH AT FLINCH AT THE PROSPECT OF KILLING INNOCENT PEOPLE OF A FOREIGN, SOVEREIGN COUNTRY.
HOW MANY OTHER DEALS HAVE BEEN STRUCK?
HOW MANY OTHER SECRETS ARE HIDDEN?
HOW MUCH LONGER WILL THE PEOPLE OF ALL NATIONS SIMPLY COWER BEFORE THEIR "LEADERS" AND WATCH SUCH DEALS TAKE PLACE?
HOW LONG WILL WE AGREE TO SUCH MURDERS BY OUR SILENCE?
HOW MANY MORE WILL WE ALL LOSE TO THESE POLITICAL WARS, THESE WARS THAT ARE NEVER DECLARED, BUT ARE FOUGHT DAY AFTER DAY, YEAR AFTER YEAR, CENTURY AFTER CENTURY AND DO NOTHING TO BETTER HUMANITY, DO NOTHING TO PROMOTE PEACE NOR PROSPERITY FOR ANY OF US "COMMON CITIZENS"?
ONLY A BLIND FOOL WOULD AGREE TO THESE TACTICS USED BY PAKISTAN AND AMERICA!
PAKISTAN HAS UNLEASHED THE HELL OF KILLER DRONES ON ITS OWN PEOPLE WITHOUT THEIR CONSENT.
AMERICA BEHAVED LIKE A SHAMELESS HENCHMAN, NO BETTER THAN A COMMON THUG FOR HIRE!
I AM OUTRAGED! I DO NOT AGREE TO SUCH THINGS! I NEVER WILL!

<<The "secret deal" over drone strikes was reached after CIA agreed to kill tribal warlord Nek Muhammad, a Pakistani ally of the Afghan Taliban who led a rebellion and was marked by Islamabad as an "enemy of the state," the NYT reported, citing an excerpt from the book 'The Way of the Knife: The CIA, a Secret Army, and a War at the Ends of the Earth'.
A CIA official had met the then ISI chief Ehsan ul Haq with the offer that if the American intelligence agency killed Muhammad, "would the ISI allow regular armed drone flights over the tribal areas," the report said.
The ISI and CIA also agreed that all drone flights in Pakistan would operate under the American agency's "covert action authority", which meant that the US would never acknowledge the missile strikes and that Pakistan would either take credit for the individual killings or remain silent.

A Secret Deal on Drones, Sealed in Blood
http://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/07/world/asia/origins-of-cias-not-so-secret-drone-war-in-pakistan.html?pagewanted=all
<<Nek Muhammad and his followers had been killed by the C.I.A., the first time it had deployed a Predator drone in Pakistan to carry out a “targeted killing.” The target was not a top operative of Al Qaeda, but a Pakistani ally of the Taliban who led a tribal rebellion and was marked by Pakistan as an enemy of the state. In a secret deal, the C.I.A. had agreed to kill him in exchange for access to airspace it had long sought so it could use drones to hunt down its own enemies.
That back-room bargain, described in detail for the first time in interviews with more than a dozen officials in Pakistan and the United States, is critical to understanding the origins of a covert drone war that began under the Bush administration, was embraced and expanded by President Obama, and is now the subject of fierce debate. The deal, a month after a blistering internal report about abuses in the C.I.A.’s network of secret prisons, paved the way for the C.I.A. to change its focus from capturing terrorists to killing them, and helped transform an agency that began as a cold war espionage service into a paramilitary organization. >>
What We Didn't Know About the Start of America's Drone War Killed Thousands
Apr 6, 2013

<<It was all the way back in June 2004, before Obama was elected, before he started to wind down the wars Iraq and Afghanistan, before people like Rand Paul started to ask a lot of questions. As detailed in The New York Times's Sunday front-page excerpt of Mike Mazzetti's new book, The Way of the Knife: The C.I.A., a Secret Army, and a War at the Ends of the Earth, out on Tuesday, the Central Intelligence Agency struck a deal with Pakistani officials to kill Nek Muhammad in exchange for the opportunities to carry out drone strikes on Pakistani soil. The agency assassinated a person to get the airspace to assassinate more people. The U.S. acted as a hired gun, so it could build up its "targeted killing" program. And then the U.S. covered up its first Predator strike in Pakistan, the first of many, many more in a new kind of secret war. "The C.I.A. has since conducted hundreds of drone strikes in Pakistan that have killed thousands of people, Pakistanis and Arabs, militants and civilians alike," Mazetti writes.
The 27-year-old Muhammad was an enemy of the state in Pakistan. He had organized a tribal rebellion against the government and gave them fits. His clashes with the Pakistani government had come to a tipping point, so then-C.I.A. director George Tenet approached Pakistan with a deal. The U.S. would kill Muhammad in exchange for access to Pakistan's airspace to carry out further drone strike. Mazzetti writes that Muhammad mentioned seeing a "strange, metallic bird hovering above him," during an interview on the day he died.>>
US Drone Strikes in Pakistan Are Illegal, Says UN Terrorism Official
Mar 15, 2013
http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2013/03/us-drone-strikes-in-pakistan-are-illegal-says-un-terrorism-official/
<<Following a three-day fact-finding visit to Pakistan, the United Nations terrorism and human rights envoy issued a statement calling the U.S. drone strikes in Pakistan a violation of international law.
“The position of the government of Pakistan is quite clear: It does not consent to the use of drones by the United States on its territory and it considers this to be a violation of Pakistan’s sovereignty and territorial integrity,” said Ben Emmerson, U.N. special rapporteur on counter-terrorism and human rights.
[WELL, GIVEN TODAY'S HEADLINES, THAT'S A BLOODY LIE, ISN'T IT? THEY DID AGREE, THEY HIRED A HIT AND THE HITS JUST KEEP ON COMING!]
“As a matter of international law, the U.S. drone campaign in Pakistan is … being conducted without the consent of the elected representatives of the people or the legitimate government of the state,” said Emmerson, who is British and has been investigating the impact of U.S. drone attacks in Pakistan’s tribal areas on the civilian population.
U.S. State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland would not comment directly on the legal implications of the strikes, citing classified intelligence, but told ABC News on Friday that the U.S. has seen Emmerson’s statement and will await a final report before commenting further.
“We have a strong ongoing counter-terrorism dialogue with Pakistan, and that will continue,” she said.>>
CAN WE TRANSLATE THAT TO: "WE KILL FOR PAKISTAN AND PAKISTAN TELLS US WHO TO KILL"?
THE ARTICLE GOES ON TO SAY: <<Pakistan has been very vocal in its opposition to the program. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has claimed there have been at least 330 drone strikes within Pakistan since 2004 that have killed at least 2,200 people and seriously injured 600 more. However, the government has not been able to report how many of those killed have been civilians, confirming at least 400 as non-combatants but estimating the number is likely much higher.>>
"'VERY VOCAL IN ITS OPPOSITION'"?
WHAT A LIE!
THEY ASKED THE U.S. TO KILL A TROUBLESOME TRIBAL LEADER AND THE U.S. DID JUST THAT! BUT AREN'T MOST GOVERNMENTS BASED ON LIES?
ISN'T LYING JUST HOW GOVERNMENTS CONDUCT THEIR AFFAIRS?
HAVEN'T THEY ALL LIED TO THEIR CITIZENS AND TO THE WORLD FOR CENTURY UPON CENTURY?
HAVEN'T THEY DUPED US WITH "FALSE FLAG" ATTACKS, WRITTEN SCRIPTS FOR WARS, AND IMAGINED THINGS LIKE "OPERATION NORTHWOODS", "OPERATION GLADIO" AND THOUSANDS OF OTHER "PROJECTS" LIKE THE MANHATTAN PROJECT, OPERATION GARDEN PLOT, ET AL?
HASN'T EACH GOVERNMENT INCESSANTLY GOADED THEIR PEOPLE TO WARS, TO DISTRUST AND/OR HATE OTHER NATIONS, TO SEEK REVENGE FOR FANTASY "ATTACKS", FOR "SLIGHTS", FOR NO REAL REASON OTHER THAN WAR IS PROFITABLE FOR A NATION'S MEGA-CORPORATIONS?
HAVEN'T WARS BEEN DRIVEN BY THE LIKES OF WALL STREET, THE INTERNATIONAL BANKING CARTEL, AND EACH NATION'S LEADERS' DESIRE FOR BOTH DOMINANCE AND "EMPIRE-BUILDING"?
HAVEN'T WE ALL BEEN SCARED INTO WARS?
HAVEN'T ALL OUR GOVERNMENTS USED FEAR TO STEER US WHICHEVER WAY THEY WANT US TO GO?
THEY'VE DRIVEN US BEFORE THEM LIKE HERDS OF SHEEP, AND FEAR HAS SENT US TIMIDLY TRAILING BEHIND OUR "SHEPHERDS", DOING WHATEVER THEY SAY, BELIEVING WHATEVER WE'RE TOLD.
WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO MAKE US SEE THINGS AS THEY REALLY ARE?
EACH NEW DAY SOMETHING LIKE THIS COMES TO LIGHT! EVERY DAY A NEW "DISCLOSURE" THAT SHOULD SHOW US WHAT IS GOING ON ALL AROUND US! THE HIDDEN IS REVEALED AND YET WE KEEP BLINDLY FOLLOWING THE LEADERS, KNOWING THEY LEAD BY LIES AND DIRTY TRICKS!
YOU WHO LIVE IN PAKISTAN, AND THERE ARE SOME OF YOU WHO READ HERE, DID YOU KNOW YOUR 'LEADERS' SOLD OUT YOUR NATION, GAVE ANOTHER NATION, THE USA, THE RIGHT TO KILL YOUR OWN PEOPLE? DID YOU KNOW THEY'D RISK YOU AND YOUR FAMILIES BEING KILLED BY AN AMERICAN DRONE JUST TO 'GET AN EDGE' ON WHOMEVER THEY CONSIDER AN "ENEMY OF THE STATE" THERE?
AMERICANS, WHY DON'T YOU CARE THAT OUR GOVERNMENT IS KILLING THOUSANDS OF INNOCENT CIVILIANS WITH THESE STRIKES?
OH, YOU LIKED BLAMING OBAMA FOR THE DEATHS, BUT DO YOU DARE CALL FOR AN INTERNATIONAL COUNCIL TO TRY BOTH BUSH2 AND HIS CRONIES AND OBAMA AND HIS, ALL WHO HAVE TAKEN PART IN THIS, FOR WAR CRIMES? DO YOU DARE GO UP TO CAPITOL HILL AND SCREAM IN THE FACES OF CONGRESS AND THE WHITE HOUSE TO STOP THIS SENSELESS "WAR", TO END THIS UTTER MADNESS THAT HAS DESTROYED MORE LIVES THAN WE WILL EVER KNOW ?
WILL YOU EVER, IN A MILLION YEARS, DEMAND ACCOUNTABILITY, DEMAND THAT THOSE DAMNABLE "SECRET FILES" ALL BE OPENED SO WE CAN SEE WHAT HAS REALLY BEEN HAPPENING HERE FOR OVER 200 YEARS?
HAS EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE, GOTTEN SO USED TO FOLLOWING JUDAS GOATS THAT WE'LL JUST TRUDGE ON TO SLAUGHTER, TO CONSTANT, UNENDING WAR AND DEATH?
EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT THE MAD-MAN IN NORTH KOREA WITH HIS FINGER ON THE "RED BUTTON", THREATENING NUCLEAR ATTACK...BUT HE IS JUST ONE OF HUNDREDS ACROSS THE GLOBE ITCHING TO DO SO! ONE ERROR OF JUDGEMENT AND THE ENTIRE WORLD CAN BE AT WAR...ONE SLIP-UP, ONE MAN MAKING THE WRONG CHOICE CAN SEND US ALL OVER THE BRINK!
AND 'WHY' IS BECAUSE WE WHO ARE SUPPOSED TO DICTATE TO OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS HAVE COWERED BEFORE THEM AND ALLOWED THEM TO DICTATE TO US!
IN AMERICA, POLLS CAN SHOW THAT OVER 90% OF VOTERS FAVOR A "NO" VOTE ON A CERTAIN BILL, A "LEGISLATIVE MOVE" BUT WHEN YOU WATCH CONGRESS VOTE TIME AND TIME AGAIN QUITE THE OPPOSITE OF THE "WILL OF THE PEOPLE", DON'T YOU SEE WHO'S REALLY IN CHARGE? IT IS NOT "WE, THE PEOPLE"! WE HAVE LOST ALL OUR POWER, ALL OUR RIGHTS, ALL THAT EVER WAS GOOD ABOUT THIS YOUNG NATION!
WHERE WILL WE FINALLY DRAW THE LINE AND SCREAM "NO MORE! NO MORE!"?
IS ANYTHING WORSE THAN A LIAR?
IS ANYTHING MORE REPUGNANT THAN A LIE?
HOW CAN WE GO ON BASING EVERYTHING WE THINK AND EVERYTHING WE DO ON LIES THAT ARE TOLD TO ALL OF US?
WHY WON'T WE STAND UP FOR OURSELVES AND OUR NATIONS AGAINST THESE CRIMINALS WHO CALL THEMSELVES OUR LEADERS?
HOW LONG WILL WE SIT QUIETLY AND NOT DEMAND JUSTICE, NOT DEMAND ACCOUNTABILITY, NOT DEMAND AN END TO SUCH UTTER MADNESS?
ARE WE A WORLD, AN ENTIRE WORLD GONE MAD?
HAVE WE NOTHING LEFT WITHIN US BUT FEAR AND COMPLACENCY?
