A document containing al-Qaeda's 22 tips for dodging drone attacks has been found in a building abandoned by Islamists in Mali. Here, we list all 22 tips.
1. It is possible to know the intention and the mission of the drone by using the Russianmade “sky grabber” device to infiltrate the drone’s waves and the frequencies. The device is available in the market for $2,595 and the one who operates it should be a computer know-how.
2. Using devices that broadcast frequencies or pack of frequencies to disconnect the contacts and confuse the frequencies used to control the drone. The Mujahideen have had successful experiments using the Russian-made “Racal.”
3. Spreading the reflective pieces of glass on a car or on the roof of the building.
4. Placing a group of skilled snipers to hunt the drone, especially the reconnaissance ones because they fly low, about six kilometres or less.
5. Jamming of and confusing of electronic communication using the ordinary water-lifting dynamo fitted with a 30-metre copper pole.
6. Jamming of and confusing of electronic communication using old equipment and keeping them 24-hour running because of their strong frequencies and it is possible using simple ideas of deception of equipment to attract the electronic waves devices similar to that used by the Yugoslav army when they used the microwave (oven) in attracting and confusing the Nato missiles fitted with electromagnetic searching devices.
7. Using general confusion methods and not to use permanent headquarters.
8. Discovering the presence of a drone through well-placed reconnaissance networks and to warn all the formations to halt any movement in the area.
9. To hide from being directly or indirectly spotted, especially at night.
10. To hide under thick trees because they are the best cover against the planes.
11. To stay in places unlit by the sun such as the shadows of the buildings or the trees.
12. Maintain complete silence of all wireless contacts.
13. Disembark of vehicles and keep away from them especially when being chased or during combat.
14. To deceive the drone by entering places of multiple entrances and exits.
15. Using underground shelters because the missiles fired by these planes are usually of the fragmented anti-personnel and not anti-buildings type.
16. To avoid gathering in open areas and in urgent cases, use building of multiple doors or exits.
17. Forming anti-spies groups to look for spies and agents.
18. Formation of fake gatherings such as using dolls and statutes to be placed outside false ditches to mislead the enemy.
19. When discovering that a drone is after a car, leave the car immediately and everyone should go in different direction because the planes are unable to get after everyone.
20. Using natural barricades like forests and caves when there is an urgent need for training or gathering.
21. In frequently targeted areas, use smoke as cover by burning tires.
22. As for the leaders or those sought after, they should not use communications equipment because the enemy usually keeps a voice tag through which they can identify the speaking person and then locate him.

Man! They've got us out-foxed. I can see our "drone" pilots won't be getting many medals this Christmas.

The spotter tea bar at Waddington better watch out if they ever start operating out of there!!

-Good luck with trying to reach that there Global Hawk with your sniper rifles.
8. Discovering the presence of a drone through well-placed reconnaissance networks and to warn all the formations to halt any movement in the area.
-Haven't come across many al-Qaeda plane spotters.
9. To hide from being directly or indirectly spotted, especially at night.
-Darn! They're onto us. Ah well, might as well pack up and go home.
19. When discovering that a drone is after a car, leave the car immediately and everyone should go in different direction because the planes are unable to get after everyone.
-Surely the only time you know that a drone is after the car you're travelling in is when the Hellfire insists on joining you?
I don't mean to be facetious, and while I guess it constitutes what on the face of it looks like common sense thinking about how to evade and fool drones, it makes me personally think that the hopeful drone dodgers haven't got a clue.
Please tell me if I have it wrong.

I think the Terr's are onto us and should continue doing what they are.....as it does seem to be working for them. They sure don't seem to be watching National Geo or the Military Channel on TV.
If you think those 21-22 Tips are the best they can do....you badly under-estimate the Enemy. They are far smarter than that list indicates.

24. Wear day-glo vests and the UAV sensor operator will think you are the section H&S advisor.
25. Dress as a Scandanavian woman (and adopt a strident voice) and the UAV sensor operator will think you are the Unit Gender Focal Point

26. Become a "Bundler" of large amounts of contributions to BH Obama's Campaign Fund.....afix Obama/Biden Bumper stickers to your car.

have a Boeing or LHM parking pass on your car - the drone operator will assume you are trying to sell the Govt some US made hardware

As was done against V1s, if you can catch and turn one or two spotters (that finger which car the targets are in) you'd just have to cause a few strikes against prominent "friendlies" to curb the use of drones significantly.
Then give the bastards "necklaces" to deter other collaborators (old "tin Eye" would have been proud of me!).
Seriously, though, not that I sympathise with terrorists but their greatest weakness appears to be that their organisations are infiltrated with pro-west spies (or those targeted are just people the "west" does not want to rise to prominence, strong community leaders/organisers, budding Hariris, etc).
The best way of stopping drone strikes may be to do some PR and get the western populace to stop their use - there are enough muslims in the west surely to get their version of things out on the street without leaving the words of extremists (or pseudo extremists) unchallenged.

......don't grow a beard that you could lose a badger in, wave your arms whilst shouting 'dirka dirka' and commit terrorist atrocities. That ought to go some way to preserving your butt.

27. Get lots of lights and spell out 'ENGINE FAIL' in 30 foot high letters. Flash them on and off and keep moving them to remain at the top of the drone operators screen
