This truly is a disgrace on our nation. I know some of my friends think drones are an easy, no-casualty way to fight back against terrorism but the truth is we are murdering more innocent civilians than terrorists and this just intensifies the hatred against our nation. When we were reducing our involvement in Vietnam, President Nixon instituted a plan called "Vietnamization". This was just a euphemism for stepping up the air war and we began sending in waves of B-52s to carpet bomb civilian areas in Hanoi. Apparently, President Obama has chosen the same tactic and seems to think that, as we reduce our participation in the ground war in Afghanistan, we can just amp up the flying killer robots to compensate.
