Pakistan Selected DroneTargets CIA Documents.
When the Drone strike involved the killing of the Civilians, it aroused Public Anger.
The West and in particular the US was supremely indifferent.
Drone attacks can not distinguish Civilians, Terrorists and most importantly the Westerners.
When the Drone strike involved the killing of a UK national, there started a Hue and cry and Human Rights issue.
Ironically these votaries of Human Rights were silent when Pakistani civilians were killed!
Now as the issue has become a Human Rights controversy, the CIA, with the sanction of the White House, is releasing the information that Pakistan was a Party to Drone Strikes.
They could have done this when Pakistani civilians were being killed.
This is how contradictory international policies work out.
Story:
In time, the CIA identified so many suspected al-Qaeda and militant compounds that it gave them coded designations, including MSC 215 for a Miran Shah compound where explosives were manufactured and SC 5 for Spailpan Compound No. 5 in South Waziristan.
