• Out of Sight, Out of Mind: A visualization of drone strikes in Pakistan since 2004

  Out of Sight, Out of Mind: A visualization of drone strikes in Pakistan since 2004:

  

  Since 2004, the US has been practicing in a new kind of clandestine military operation. The justification for using drones to take out enemy targets is appealing because it removes the risk of losing American military, it?s much cheaper than deploying soldiers, it?s politically much easier to maneuver (i.e. flying a drone within Pakistan vs. sending troops) and it keeps the world in the dark about what is actually happening. It takes the conflict out of sight, out of mind. The success rate is extremely low and the cost on civilian lives and the general well-being of the population is very high. This project helps to bring light on the topic of drones. Not to speak for or against, but to inform and to allow you to see for yourself whether you can support drone usage or not.
