The US is deploying thousands of drones in Afghanistan, raising suspicions as to whether the move is aimed at monitoring militants or
targeting another country.
Regional defense analysts believe that the unmanned aerial vehicles could be brought into play against regional countries in the wake of mounting tensions with Iran over its nuclear activities, the Pakistan Observer newspaper reported on Tuesday. Deputy Director for Resources and Acquisition for the Pentagon's Joint Staff, Marine Corps Brig. Gen. Glenn Walters, recently said that the American military has sent a host of its 6,500 drones to the Middle East region. He further noted that even though the US Pacific Command, Southern Command and Africa Command are in dire need of more UAVs, they are obliged to wait until the demand is met at the Central Command. Walters also pointed out that the American military, whose UAV fleet has grown from about 200 since the beginning of the US-led war in Afghanistan, will have to specify as to what to do with the drones, as the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan allegedly come to a close. |
