Surprise!

Drone strikes in Pakistan “counterproductive” - Salon.com

A new report from U.S. academics delivers a harsh blow to the “dominant narrative” of U.S. drone warfare in Pakistan. Drone attacks are “counterproductive,” lead to large numbers of civilian deaths and create an environment of constant fear, states the report, countering the prevailing idea that drones offer precision and mitigate civilian risk. The report suggests too that the drone program has not made the United States any safer.

Or maybe not so much. If you didn't see this coming you must be a D. Or an R.
