In fact, 'since August 2008, at least 44 such strikes have killed more than 440 people.'...
And, why do we not see this news being covered as a big story by the CNN, BBC, Al-Jazeera,...
Why do we see no 'public outrage' at these extra-judicial indiscriminate killing ... In fact, there is also no follow-up news telling us how many confirmed 'terrorists' were killed...and how many innocents were killed...

Where are the protests against the US?
These incidents are far worse that the Malaysian police's 'shoot to kill' cases - but alas, we keep silent - not protesting...
US says that they believe that these persons are 'terrorists' - then arrest them, and try them in an open court. We remember US using 'weapons of mass destruction' as a justification for the attack of Iraq - and there was none. We remember that US's reason for getting involved in the Vietnam war was also a lie. US has no credibility. All the more, that these attacks, which like 'suicide bombs' , kills many innocent people...

"It was a US drone attack. We have checked -- no Pakistani aircraft was involved in this incident," another Pakistani military official said.

Washington has branded Pakistan's rugged northwest tribal belt as the most dangerous place in the world for Americans, saying Al-Qaeda and Taliban rebels are plotting attacks on Western targets from militant hideouts there.
Pakistan publicly opposes US strikes, saying they violate its territorial sovereignty and deepen resentment among the populace. Since August 2008, at least 44 such strikes have killed more than 440 people. - AFP, 3/7/2009, US drone attack kills at least seven in Pakistan
