It is not a matter of statistics alone, or even of civilian casualties.
How much of a moral foothold can a soldier have when he is not using his own motivation and courage to face his enemies, but instead relies on the economic and technological superiority of his country?
Perhaps none at all.
A soldier that is not directly facing his opponents is not much of a soldier.
Plus, these CIA drone strikes aren't part of any war and are generally cartied out ib the territory of allies. Even when they hit their intended target, it's still the summary execution of a SUSPECTED criminal without trial.The drone program counts any 'combat aged man" as a combatant be default, armed or not.
thats any males ages 14-55. That covers A LOT of supposed combatants that were really civillians.
Of the confirmed civillians killed (women and children almost entirely) its 50% of the casualties of drones.
The program is obviously ineffective at killing it's intended targets. The US government is corrupt and filled with criminals who don't care who they kill so long as they feed their corporate interests!
So when is the left going to start calling for Obama to be brought up on war crimes, like they did with Bush?
Crimes against humanity?Just crimes, not war crimes (as I've said a few times now, there's no war), but I think that would be a good idea.
Crimes against humanity?
What are we to do about it?How about plain ol' murder?
