This protest means nothing
nothing will change.

Armed Drones
are cheaper and fire the same as pilot would
why not protest about Pilots?

I thought the statistics showed that actually drone strikes cause less civilian casualties than ground troops though. Drones usually make several passes before they strike, and they can analyze the entire situation from the sky and many analysts go over the situation before they fire, unlike a soldier with a gun on the ground who can only see what's in his direct line of vision.

I support the drones. I think they are a much better option than ground force operations.

It may be on some Bombs
but many kill all around the Hit circle
so Children are killed alot - In America its not reported much.

FoxNews is all for drones

Those arn't children, they are human shields. It's part of the terrorist strategy. The terrorists purposefully surround themselves with women and children for propaganda purposes, so they can say after they are killed, that America attacks women and children. that's why they frequently hold meeting at mosques and hospitals and weddings. They purposefully surround themselves with women and children, they HIDE behind women and children because they are such cowards.

Of Course I agree Alex
but many children are not all aware that the flat
near them has the target.

Of Course if it was not Drones
Pilots would do the same bombing
anyway.

I guess we're the only ones that have an interest in drones. I thought this thread was gonna go ballistic when i first saw it.

I thought many people were very against drones.... guess not.
