Visualizing the illegal drone bombardment

The president likes children right? He surrounds himself with them constantly to help bolster his political agenda.

When it comes to children who get in the way of his political agenda, however, it’s a different story.

Here is a visual of the hundreds of children that have been murdered in US drone strikes on Pakistan and Yemen, ordered by the president during his first term.

Their ages range from just 1 year old to 19 years of age:

The information was complied by The Bureau of Investigative Journalism, which estimates that there have been approximately 399 to 500 strikes to-date. The research group has found that around three thousand individuals have been killed by these drones, many of them innocent civilians. In Pakistan alone, 891 civilians have been killed by U.S. drones since 2004.

When a college student recently attempted to write a tweet for every drone strike the US has carried out in the last decade, he gave up after 12 hours of constant tweeting, reaching only the year 2010, when the attacks expanded exponentially.

Pakistan’s President Asif Ali Zardari told US ambassador Richard Olson today that drone attacks are not only violation of Pakistan’s sovereignty but are counter productive and their legality is questionable.

Yesterday, another seven people were killed in Yemen in a drone strike. It was the fourth strike in five days, marking what senior officials have called a significant escalation in the U.S.-Yemeni campaign against “Al Qaeda affiliated militants”.

A further strike later the same day, which went relatively unreported by the mainstream Western media, killed a further nine people. Two of those killed were children, according to witnesses.

The CIA and Obama administration officials have declined to comment on the strikes.

Yemeni Human Rights Minister Hooria Mashhour this week lambasted the strategy, criticized the lack of concern over civilian deaths, and said all Yemeni citizens deserve the right to a fair trial, rather than blanket assassination.

Yemeni President Abdu Rabu Mansour Hadi, however, praised the operations when he visited Washington in September.

“They pinpoint the target and have zero margin of error, if you know what target you’re aiming at,” Hadi said at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars.

Again, those dead children are:
