Even those who are supposedly anti taliban or in favour of this war and were fighting this US war for over 10 years, neither could stop drones, nor bombs and forget about suicides. Their policy was that let people die wheher in drones or bombs and suicide attacks, but if US is pouring in dollars then this war should be fought on the pretext that these taliban are not able enough to talke with. Then why this QATAR talk with taliban now. Those people who say that KHAN is still against drones even though taliban are still expolding bombs and killing people in suicide attacks are just trying to put the cart before the horse and infer that horse is not able to pull the cart. Stopping drones or at least using all natioanl and international forums against drones and getting out of war will if not 100 percent solve the issue upto 50 percent at least as that taliban will lose the legitimacy of fighting this war to a great extent. Aristotle adviced the rulers that you may kill father of a man as he will forget this cruelty with the passage of time, but dont confiscate his property as people have atatched a sense of self respect and esteem to their property. Here the case with PATHAN is a bit different, if you take anything of him illegitimately whether it is the life of his near and dear one or destruction of his house and property, he will never forget it for life and will try to take revenage. Aside the collateral damamges and killings of innocent people children and women in these airial hits, these drones are not only illegal but counter productive.
