Don't take a Senator's word for it. Old Google Earth satellite photos, dug up by the* News *of Pakistan, show U.S. drones, parked on a Pakistani runway, back in 2006.

The paper ID's the robotic planes as massive Global Hawk drones – unlikely, the shape's all wrong. More likely, the aircraft found at coordinates 27 degrees 51 minutes North, 65 degrees and 10 minutes East are Predator drones.

Google Earth no longer shows the planes at the airfield, "built by Arab sheiks for falconry trips," according to the *Times *of London. But the 2009-edition images do show several new buildings – including what appears to be a hangar, big enough for several Predators.

Pakistani blogger Teeth Maestro, for one, is not at all pleased by what he sees. His latest headline: "Drones parked in our own backyard, to Bomb our own People."
