8. This is George Bush Styled Behavior: US attacks any sovereign country we want
I thought we were going to respect the sovereignty of other countries?

Pakistan protests US drone attacks

Politics 1/24/2009 4:04:00 PM

ISLAMABAD, Jan 24 (KUNA) Pakistan Saturday lodged strong protest with the United States over the latest missile attacks on its territory, which came only days after Barack Obama was sworn in as the 44th President of the US.
President Asif Ali Zardari met with the US ambassador, Anne Patterson, and strongly condemned the unilateral US missile attacks, official sources told KUNA.

At least twenty people including near ten Arab militants were killed Friday evening in two US missile attacks in South and North Waziristan tribal agencies.

Sources said that the President conveyed Pakistan's concerns to the US regarding unabated missile attacks in the bordering tribal region, which are creating disturbance in other parts of the country as well.

He said only Pakistani forces are allowed to take action against militants in their territory. He hoped that the new US administration will stop the drone attacks.

So do we continue the George Bush NeoCON policies of attacking other countries?

What if another country fired missiles into ours? Would that be ok?
