ABSTRACT
In conventional ways, we could easily agree that in a battle, soldiers are based on the grounded belief that they kill or to be killed. Nevertheless, when the Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) which is popularized as “Drones” being an advanced ways in killing people and destructing ground sites, they can kill anyone but cannot be ‘killed’ back. Due to its unconventional conducts, this phenomenon worths to discuss about. This paper focuses on the problem of human insecurity under the shadow of drone strikes in Federal Adminitsred Tribal Areas (FATA) Pakistan, where most of ex Taliban fighters live after flew away from Afghanistan. The aim is to discuss the diplomatic and legal aspects of the drone attacks, and this paper would show that both ‘out of diplomatic’ and ‘out of international law’ drone attacks have already been changing FATA from the terrorist asylum to be the terrorist factory. | en_US |
