In defense of drones
Times are definitely changing. It strikes me as odd the debate over this issue. On the one hand, you have the "Stop it Crowd". And on the other, you have the "It's saving soldiers lives". As a veteran, war is not very nice. It's ugly, brutal, and horrific.
That being said, for those that haven't been apart of such, do me a favor? Tap down on your rhetoric. Reading about war in a book, or newspaper doesn't make you an expert. Experience does. How odd is it, that everyone was down with war when the towers came down? Yet when they slowly learned how brutal, scary, and powerful this nation truly is when it came to striking back, they recoil in absolute horror.
If anyone truly wishes an end to wars, keep a close eye on corporations, and religions. These entities go into foreign lands exploiting the people, causing unrest. Sure, they always claim they are "Making lives better", but they never accept responsibility for their actions, when the unrest begins. Religions have been fighting since their formation. Yet they claim it's done in the name of peace and love. Go figure? Corporations exploit the land and the people, and boldly boast, it's all about the bucks.
As a veteran, I much rather a drone strike on a suspected terrorist, and traitor of The United States of America. I acknowledge there will be collateral damage with such a strike. But we had loved ones in those towers. War, until it ends, is always ugly, brutal, and horrific.
