While everything PO has said about this is apparently a lie to you and it appears that you think PO orders drones because he's a murderer or something only with bad or evil intent.
People like you never admit that PO does in fact know a great deal more about the whole situation than you do and yet you're willing to characterize that as evil and anyone who corroborates your point of view for whatever reason as heroic.
Why do you think that, as in the countries you listed above, all of these dictators and kings and such always tell us the truth about what is going on with drones and whatever and President Obama always lies and orders drones for no useful or good reason whatsoever?
HOW do you think any of this is even remotely possible without at least the indirect complicity of the countries that we are talking about, themselves, or of their allies and such who withhold their own responses, or pressure the country being droned to let it go, because we are assisting them somehow?
Again, is this the way that I would do it? No! But it is the way that it is done and Ron/Rand Paul, Chris Hedges, and Glenn Greenwald don't have what it takes to change any of it. All of their activity on this issue is political opportunism at the expense of people who are under threat of genocide from their own governments if someone, in this case the Policemen of the World/the USA, doesn't get them under somekind of threat of control from a lesser force (drones) than full on genocide, which is the usual solution if you may have noticed.
