In a usual step, US went ahead to fire seven missiles in pakistan, killing 7 people and injuring 3.

This attack came amidst the talks going on between the two countries on deciding a common procedure in combating Terrorism.

Later four missiles were fired from unknown places of south waziristan of pakistan. The attacks came as a surprise by the US air force who claim that they had attacked a place that comprised the terrorist. However, there is no evidence that they established to justify their actions.

United states has been claiming that Taliban and Qaida forces are operating within the tribal areas of Pakistan’s border with afghanistan. They also claim that they are using this ground to us military forces from these areas.

The amazing thing to observe is that US goes about bombarding just any target it wants around the world and the entire world watches like a silent spectator, watching it do what it wants. By use of media and power, US has propagated that Terrorism is around Pakistani border and in other parts of the world. This could be accepted to an extent.

But how about the millions of innocent populations living in those areas which include women and children? What if their attacks kill them too, or rather thats what US has been killing. And they term it as Co-lateral damage! Is this justified?
