Now that I think about it the bashing of Obama's use of drones in what we like to believe as "Pakistan" is just ridiculous. The northern area of pakistan that al Qaeda is located in is a free for all no mans land. Pakistan cannot even control it, nor does any government try to. So after al qaeda infamously declared they were behind 9/11, we requested to enter the area. Pakistan wanted us to invade them since they cannot control that area themselves, but they acted like us entering meant WE were the bad guys, because the public's mentality in the middle east is that all non believers are infedels and they did not want to upset their people.

Its as simple as that. So the public does not want us in their area (even though northern Pakistan by all means is not a country). So instead we use drones to do this because its better to kill a person than to send them to Guantanamo Bay and leave them in a rotten hell for life in prison. Since we are invading a free mans land with drones to seek out the criminals that killed 3000 people 10 years ago, we are the bad guys in international media. What logic, huh?
