Politicians have been led to believe by a Washington Post survey that 80% of Americans support the Obama Administration's program of drone strikes that broadly target and kill people in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Africa.Yet what Americans say they support is a program that does not exist. Robert Naiman talks about his recent travels to Pakistan's Tribal Areas where US drones now terrorize the civilian population 24/7 when they are not killing people who may or may not be terrorists; merely fitting a list of suspected activities or being in proximity is sufficient.
