are you saying you wouldn't have jumped at the chance to drop a drone on Hitler two days before he took the first of 20Million people he killed?
I myself, being Jewish, do not know of anyone personally who would not have wanted that to happen.

If there were 100 collateral plus Hitler, 20 million lives would have been saved, as the 100 plus Hitler most assuredly died in the war anyhow.

Would you say otherwise?

If only there were drones back then
or one day prior to James Earl Ray or Oswald or SS or the asshole who got lennon, and they were dropped well out of range of any other collateral on those people, and yes, I would have welcomed the listening in on those people to stop them from the harm they did.

But one can't go back in time, and shouldn't.

One can only go forward.

absolutists are just as bad as extremists and anarchists
each situation warrants its own look
and not as one
