I cannot defend this country's actions. I cannot like this country's actions. And i cannot like the people for allowing this kind of thing to go on. What kind of monsters are we to just send automated bombs into someone else's country regularly? Are we in a declared war with Pakistan? Were the thousand civilians we killed guilty of anything? The United States disgusts me. There's NEVER any good news, NEVER any news to be proud of with this country. It's always hideous awful bullsh*t that goes on. "Proud to be an American"? WHAT FOR?!DAS (formerly BushAdmirer) synonym iamjumbo

Because there is considerable political sensitivity, especially in terms of our relationship with Pakistan, it is vitally important than any proposed drone strike be very well vetted before authorization. The folks who control the drones can't just go around blowing up anything and everything that they might suspect. Knowing how the military and the CIA operate, I am certain that any authorized drone targets are well vetted.
Terrorists are known to share safe houses and to bring their families along with them. Families who accompany terrorists into combat zones are not innocent civilians. They are victims of their terrorist husbands and fathers poor judgement and disregard for their safety.
The drones enable terrorist elimination without risking the lives of combat personnel. They are effective. They are reusable. They have been able to access terrorist hideouts that can't be accessed by military personnel for whatever reason.
The terrorists are not idiots. They know that their best defense against drone attacks is to discredit them as causing irresponsible civilian deaths. I very much doubt the veracity of those claims. Dead terrorist family and friends are not innocent civilians.
