I am on the Kill List. This is what it feels like to be hunted by drones

This is an automatic summary, original reduced by 84%.


I am in the strange position of knowing that I am on the 'Kill List'.

I don't want to end up a "Bugsplat" - the ugly word that is used for what remains of a human being after being blown up by a Hellfire missile fired from a Predator drone.

I am in England this week because I decided that if Westerners wanted to kill me without bothering to come to speak with me first, perhaps I should come to speak to them instead. I'll tell my story so that you can judge for yourselves whether I am the kind of person you want to be murdered.

In January 2010, I lent my vehicle to my nephew, Salimullah, to drive to Deegan for an oil change and to have one of the tires checked.

Upon reflection, because the drones target the vehicles of people they want to kill in Waziristan, I was worried that they were aiming for me.

Initially I thought the vehicle behind was perhaps being used by militants, and I just happened to be nearby.
