The article focuses on the U.S.'s unannounced and unacknowledged war against Pakistan in the form of drone attacks launched from sites in Afghanistan and Pakistan. It is mentioned that it continues to be a source of political unrest in the region. It is also mentioned that it became a symbol of what many consider an unequal partnership between the U.S. and the government of Pakistan. As stated, compounding the confusion about the legality of such attacks and the anger directed against them is the behavior of the Pakistani authorities, who publicly condemn these attacks and privately condone them.
