End the drone strikes against children in Pakistan and Afghanistan.
The most important goal of our military defense strategy is to protect our country. Unfortunately, drone strikes in Pakistan's tribal areas have killed hundreds of children and have put American lives at risk. Michael Boyle, Obama's former counter-terrorism security adviser, asserts that the strikes are counter-productive and have lead to anti-American sentiment in an already hostile region. (http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013...s-drone-policy). President Obama cannot in good faith lament the merciless killing of children at US schools while authorizing drone strikes against innocent children in Pakistan. A human life, especially that of a child, is sacred in every part of the world. (http://articles.latimes.com/2012/sep...study-20120925). Created: Jan 12, 2013
It is complete hypocrisy when America wants drone strikes and then protests about why their own people die in Afghanistan and Pakistan. This is exactly why, and the very fact that they have not understood this is the very reason why they will never have peace from the tribal areas. They just repeat the same stupid mistakes over and over again.
