The Drone Genocide in Pakistan must stop.

Priority for the Sharif government is to investigate fully through various channels how the Pakistan military facilitates drone strikes in Pakistan for the CIA, and then stop the drone strikes by enforcing compliance after proof of Pakistani military cooperation of the Drone strikes into sovereign Pakistani territory is proved.....and obtained.

In that situation the Pakistan military cannot argue from the position....'Well we are helping the Americans kill our citizens because......'

It is important that the Sharif government understands the significance of this issue, nationally....in Pakistan. If Sharif cannot fix it, then his government will lose credibility quite quickly.

Consultations with the other parties are in order, but not as a mechanism for delaying the Drone Genocide in Pakistan. But to gauge cross party, cross politics national consensus and then present it to the Punjab military who facilitate drone strikes into Sovereign Pakistan territory.

The Pakistan tax payer maintains the Punjab military, 95% of its REAL budget.

It is the duty of Sharif as president elect, to enforce the national sentiment, quickly, effectively and efficiently.

Now is the time for national unity, NOT based on who is a Poooooooooooonjabi, Pashtun, Baluchi, Hazara, Ahmedi, Sindhi or Indian Muslim BUT who is a true Pakistani. 

Fork lift truck tricks, and gimmicks need to be avoided........clarification and action.

No more chamar chutia double talk and double dealing......one thing is said to the Pakistan people, another thing said to the Americans.

Pakistan’s Military, Incoming PM Agree to Stop US Drones

Obama's Promised 'Changes' in Drone Program May Not Be Up to Him

by Jason Ditz,antiwar.com
 
New reports suggest that among the topics of a recent meeting between Army Chief of Staff Gen. Parvez Kayani and Pakistan’s incoming Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif included a discussion of US drone strikes, and an agreement by the two to more forcefully “counter” the ongoing attacks.
 
The promise comes in the context of Sharif running on a platform that included ending the strikes, which have proven hugely unpopular inside Pakistan and have sparked several major anti-US protests over the past few years.

Though the outgoing PPP government made the occasional speech criticizing the drones, they were seen to be in the Obama Administration’s pocket, and the US openly mocked those statements, saying they believed they had “tacit” permission from Pakistan to keep going.

With that obviously gone now, President Obama’s promise to “limit” his drone program in a speech today sounds less like a policy decision and more like a recognition of the reality of the situation. Even a “limited” drone policy may run afoul of the incoming Pakistani government, though ending the years of launching multiple attacks any given week may keep the issue out of the headlines in Pakistan, at least for a time.
