51. Indeed.
"As many as 1m people have fled their homes in the Tribal Areas to escape attacks by the unmanned spy planes as well as bombings by the Pakistani army . . . was demolished by Pakistani forces.

Something tells me the Pakistani army isn't exactly that discriminating when it comes to who they're bombing the crap out of. I'm not saying Drones are a good thing, the thought that these planes are being controlled by a bunch of dorks who last month were playing Grand Theft Auto is very disturbing, but it's not like we're carpet bombing Pakistanis, either.

In this instance, I think the article is a bit over the top with the whole America bad, Europeans good schtick.
