Following the terrorist attacks in 2001, on the US territory, the US
and its allies launched a Global War on Terror (GWOT) in Afghanistan.
Although they denied but practically the word terrorist became synonym
with Muslim in the dictionary of NATO powers. Federally Administered
Tribal Areas (FATA) of Pakistan became a battle ground being in the
neighbourhood of Afghanistan. These areas have been frequently attacked
by advanced aerial vehicles, called Drones, by the NATO forces. Different
Western think tanks suggest that drones strategy is not the solutions and it
would not solve the problem in hand. This problem can be solved by
giving education, health and jobs as top priority areas of tribal people.
This article focuses on the justification of Drone attacks and legal
position of these attacks within the boundaries of a sovereign state. It
concludes that Drone attacks are counterproductive and are increasing
terrorism as a reaction to these Drones. These are also adding antiAmericanism in Pakistan. Lastly it will study what will be the future
course of action of newly elected PTI government of KPK and what would be the level of cooperation by Federal government of PML
(Nawaz) in negotiating peace with the US.
