US Citizens Unaware Drones Are Killing Innocent Pakistanis - Imran Khan

Imran Khan, Pakistani cricketer-turned-politician, indicated on Sunday that if Americans knew U.S. drone strikes were killing innocent women and children in Pakistan they would be marching on Washington D.C.
Khan, Paksitan’s Tehrik-i-Insaf (PTI) chairman, made these comments after leading protests against the CIA drone program that blocked a key road in Pakistan for three days, holding up over 500 lorries which prevented supplies from reaching NATO forces in Afghanistan.
Khan said Pakistan was the only country that had been using its army to kill its own people and that international law guaranteed protection of the rights of all human beings irrespective of their race, territory and financial status. From Examiner.com
If Imran substituted the phrase 'don't care' for 'don't know' on behalf of the US public, we would agree with him. Good luck to him in any event.
