Making more enemies so that the killing will never end. This kind of killing spree by unmanned drones flying high overhead is, by muslim standards, one of the most cowardly acts of violence imaginable. It will only make matters 10 times worse. All who witness it will go straight into the hands of the extremists, seeking vengeance in any way possible.
Exactly. Notice the number of people running for their lives from wanton death from above and probable Pak death squads on the ground - one million. We're kept in the dark about how bad it is but the tribes sure as hell know what's going on, and will eventually want revenge.
