So I take it, by your post, you feel our president, sec of State, and all who are involved in war decisions are mass murderers? Are you comparing our president to ohhh Hitler, Stalin, Saddam Hussein, Assad? So are drones any different then B-52 bombers in ww2, sopwith camels in ww1, because they are unmanned, vs manned? War is never ending. There will always be a war of some kind at any given time on this planet, so do you prefer our soldiers to be open to conflict, or prefer an unmanned drone...me, as a family member who have several active military on duty...give me the drones dude.....
