Obama admits drone strikes kill innocent Pakistanis
Drones strikes have become taboo among US leaders; allegedly for security reasons. Still Pakistan and the US have an agreement to continue drones strikes that are aimed at killing the Taliban, but at the same time have killed innocent Pakistanis. For the first time Obama has admitted drones not only kill the enemy, but innocent people. Michael Maloof, former Pentagon official, gives us his thoughts on the matter.
