Hey, Joe Scarborough, go fuck yourself!

25. When put in the context that if an American leaves and fights with the enemy

they effectively renounce their citizenship and are no longer an American. Even without that anyone fighting on the other side are fighting as enemy combatants. Depending on the circumstances they could end up being captured and then tried or killed as a result of conflict. I suppose some might argue that they are not in uniform but that is immaterial. Spies are not in uniform. Usually not in the uniform of the side they support. Were there not wars when one or both sides did not wear identifying military clothing? There can be enemies fighting actively that are not considered spies. It is when spies do what they are sent out to do that they are spies.

The Pakistan and Afghanistan attacks is an issue of concern. If Pakistan is so upset about the activity then why don't they forbid the use of drones in their airspace? Just shoot the damn things down. But if they are knowingly harboring the enemy and denying it their hands become unclean. They pretend to work with the USA so they can receive financial aid.

Afghanistan is different because they lost their sovereignty until the USA decides they are worthy of reclaiming it. Their air space doesn't belong to them until they do. So the USA can pretty much do whatever they want as long as others don't challenge them.

One of the major problem in my opinion are the repercussions of those drone attacks. If the collateral damage is significant and lasting. What will be the mindset of the people closely involved? Will it result in another bin Laden? Will it make it difficult for the country to become more civilize or will they revert back?
