Drones

Post by Ddrak »

I'm becoming less and less comfortable with these. It's starting to feel like a state actor resorting to terrorism to fight terrorists, especially the parts where a missile attack is being used to draw people out for a second strike. Yes, it killed the target but also taught everyone in the region that the US can and will kill a bunch of innocent people just trying to rescue sick and wounded to achieve its goals.

Good thing a whole 5 members of Congress cared enough to listen to a 9 year old that travelled around the world to tell them about it...

I like to give the benefit of the doubt. Cracked has an interesting drone pilot point of view: http://www.cracked.com/article_20725_6- ... lieve.html
