Caravan to Waziristan

On October 6 and 7, I traveled with the CodePink Peace Delegation from Islamabad to the border of South Waziristan in the town of Tank in the Federally Administered Tribal Area of Pakistan. We wanted to see the part of Pakistan where the US is flying drones and dropping bombs. We were not allowed into South Waziristan, but the region at the border is similar to that within South Waziristan, and we were told that neither westerners nor Pakistanis who don’t live there are allowed to go even to where we ended our journey. The following is a slideshow of photos I posted to the FOR account on Flikr.
