People who excuse this are sorry, gutless pieces of work. Could you IMAGINE the snivelling we would hear from the chicknhawks if this happened here? The people of Yemen can hear destruction before it arrives. In cities, towns and villages across this country, which hangs off the southern end of the Arabian Peninsula, the air buzzes with the sound of American drones flying overhead. The sound is a constant and terrible reminder: a robot plane, acting on secret intelligence, may calculate that the man across from you at the coffee shop, or the acquaintance with whom youve shared a passing word on the street, is an Al Qaeda operative. This intelligence may be accurate or it may not, but it doesnt matter. If you are in the wrong place at the wrong time, the chaotic buzzing above sharpens into the death-herald of an incoming missile.
