the split within pakistani society itself. interesting how condemning drone attacks is disdainfully described as “patriotic, conservative, islamist apologist” by someone who calls himself a “cultural critic” – what the hell is that anyway? this guy and other like-minded critics might be surprised to find out that drone attacks are condemned here in the u.s. as well – not by conservatives, but by liberals who believe in the sanctity of life and human rights. the vast majority of people killed by drone attacks are civilians (mostly women and children). but as long as the cultural critic’s family remains unaffected he can continue to cheer them on. well, at least he’s not patriotic or an islamist apologist. watch the video.
