My biggest gripe with the Obama administration. Drone strikes are horrible for long term foreign policy in the mid east...and they're illegal.

It is illegal. You think it's legal to fly a aircraft (manned or unmanned) through another country to kill somebody?


Also, you were shown exactly what our media wants to show you. You see a few hundred people cheering and assume that's the whole country.

You really think that Obama and our military have not been warning Yamen to wipeout those terrorist camps or we will ourself. Last time we ignored those camps bad things happened. Terrorism is illegal by international laws and aiding and abetting is also illegal by international law. This is one area I support Obama as long as its used wisely. Another words I don't want him to kill 20 women and children to get one or two terrorist.

110% agree, this and NDAA were the two biggest reservations I had while voting for Obama.

Re: Official 2012 Election Day Thread

so if someone flew a drone over te US and killed your parent, or a 4 star general, that wouldn't be terrorism? or does logic magically only work one way.

I can tell you, if that happened, i'd be pretty pissed.

Exactly. The point of these treaties is the 'do unto others' mentality. If we break those rules, we simply can't expect others to follow them.

Re: Official 2012 Election Day Thread

I've never understood all the angst over drone usage.
In most cases we have the permision of the local govt to use them.
Its a hell of a lot more efficient to just drop on them then to send in a team and capture them and bring them to Guantanamo bay. (Obamas policy)
And it also puts less American lives at risk.
There may be some rule bending going on there, that may be putting it mildly, but if it prevents another 9/11....well then drone baby drone!
