Summary He often wonders how drones could violate airspace of a state that has nukes, says Taseer

LAHORE (Web Desk) – Shahbaz Taseer, former governor’s son who survived drone attacks during his over four-year Taliban captivity has few things to say about Nushki strike, Dunya News reported Wednesday.

In an interactive session with followers on Twitter, Taseer had a hard time believing that Pakistani government was serious about its statements against United States (US) drone attacks.

The government yet again condemned a drone strike in Balochistan’s Nushki that killed Afghanistan Taliban’s chief Mullah Akhtar Mansoor.

According to Taseer, it is quite hard for a nuclearised state to be bothered about plastic-made, unmanned aircrafts that even do not have stealth technology.

He often wonders how drones could violate airspace of a state that has nukes, Taseer wrote.

He taunted the government and apparently alleged the administration of ‘liking’ the drones buzzing over citizen’s heads.

Deducing from Taseer’s cynic tone, the recently released hostage from Uzbeks and Taliban, he thinks the administration is simply not doing enough to its capabilities in the issue.

He added that during his nearly five years of incarceration, not a single drone attack missed its intended target.

He also revealed that no chief of a banned outfit hires a driver to move around.

Talking about the communication between United States and Pakistan over the drone strike in Nushki, he sarcastically chastised the premier stating that he should be bothered with his, he generally knows very little.
