U.S. drone policy killing hundreds of innocents, Obama says it s okay

Part of the problem for the U.S. is that Pashtun culture requires vengeance for murder, so when innocent men are killed, it drives sons and those around them into terrorist hands in a quest for vengeance. In this way, the drone policy is creating more terrorists.

Iraq War among world s worst events

CounterPunch
by David Swanson

03/18/13

A plurality of Americans believe, not only that Iraqis should be grateful, but that Iraqis are in fact grateful...
