Relations between the U.S. and Pakistan have hit a new low, after a top American military chief accused Pakistan's Intelligence service of supporting a group behind last week's attack on the American Embassy in Kabul. Islamabad has strongly denied the claims. One of the stumbling blocks in U.S- Pakistan relations is that American drone attacks on al-Qaeda operatives on Pakistani territory continually resulted in civilian deaths. However, the U.S. military considers them so effective that it is building a number of new drone bases in Horn of Africa and the Arabian peninsula. But as RT's Gayane Chichakyan reports, this policy has caught America in a vicious circle.

7. Hell, I LIVE here!

But as much as I'd dread such a thing, this nation needs a purging of the booming militarism and the Crusader mindset that's burgeoning. It's CRAZY! :crazy: And the few of us that still harbor clear thinking need to speak - no, HOLLER - about the shit we're having forced down our throats. Peace Prize my posterior. Whoever that was that ran for the White House on common sense, I sure wish he'd escape from wherever it is they've got him imprisoned!

Edited to add that it's a sad, sad state of affairs that we hear this detailed on the RT network. Brian Williams and all those other prime time lawn ornaments are fucking useless.

9. This is crazy

We of all people should know the terror provoked by 911 air-tack. Just imagine the possibility that at any instant a bomb could kill you and your loved ones.

Drones, like land mines should war crimes.

Someone or group was really bunkers to invent this sh*t.
