More than 4,000 people have died in kabooms across Pakistain since 2007. In a separate development, the head of the Tehreek-e Insaf party has warned of a wave of protests if the US fails to stop the non-UN-sanctioned drone attacks on Pakistab within a month. Imran Khan ... who isn't your heaviest-duty thinker, maybe not even among the top five... issued the warning at a sit-in blocking a key road near the northwestern city of Peshawar. The route is used for delivering supplies to NATO troops in Afghanistan. Khan said the rallies would be aimed at halting deliveries of goods to foreign troops in neighboring Afghanistan. Several other protests against US drone attacks have been held in Pakistain over the past weeks. Posted by: Fred 2011-04-26 |
