First of all I should say that the drone is not what bothers me in all of this. Truthfully, it is not so different from manned aircraft. A piloted F-18 is still going to shoot a missile from miles away and the pilot does not see his target. Gone are the days when Hollywood depicted Japanese or German pilots ( only ) as laughing while they strafed columns of refugees from 50 feet in the air.
What's wrong here is the intelligence used to pick targets. We are, in many cases, being used by local factions to attack their own opponents.
And of course we have no fucking idea who else is in the houses we decide to blow up. That goes without saying. Its an idea we borrowed from the Israelis and they are, of course, known for their humanitarianism.
