Drone Warfare

[skitty]

Just started reading a scary book called Drone Warfare, Killing by Remote Control by Medea Benjamin. I had no idea how many innocent people had been murdered by these things, or how far the technology had advanced. Apparently the USA is killing people in at least six countries with these things, with very little oversight. I'd love to be proved wrong, but don't see how drone-proliferation can be halted; and when the FAA signs off on airspace the drones will come home to roost. http://gawker.com/5964619/nypd-proves-street-artist-right-by-tracking-him-down-and-arresting-him

John Robb writes a lot about this subject. A LOT. He's kind of obsessed with it.

Well you can very safely assume that they kill at least 10x more innocents then the ones they are actually targeting.

I question who they(we) are targeting also. This whole business should be a police matter; and it's disturbing to think that the USA is the true rogue terrorist nation. Check this out:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQIMGV5vtd4
