When the INSANE are running the ASYLUM In individuals, insanity is rare; but in groups, parties, nations and epochs, it is the rule. -- Friedrich Nietzsche

Aren't drones just powerful long range guns? Private citizens should be able to purchase them for self defense as it's only a matter of time before the criminals and terrorists do!

Any hobby shop will sell you remote control servos and rockets. Just add a wireless video transmitter and you are all set.

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — They are dead men talking, and they know it. Gulping nervously, the prisoners stare into the video camera, spilling tales of intrigue, betrayal and paid espionage on behalf of the United States. Some speak in trembling voices, a glint of fear in their eyes. Others look resigned. All plead for their lives.
“I am a spy and I took part in four attacks,” said Sidinkay, a young tribesman who said he was paid $350 to help direct C.I.A. drones to their targets in Pakistan’s tribal belt. Sweat glistened on his forehead; he rocked nervously as he spoke. “Stay away from the Americans,” he said in an imploring voice. “Stay away from their dollars.”
Cic left off before the good part of the story... From Cicero's NY Times link:
Quoted Text
For several years now, militant enforcers have scoured the tribal belt in search of informers who help the C.I.A. find and kill the spy agency’s jihadist quarry. The militants’ technique — often more witch hunt than investigation — follows a well-established pattern. Accused tribesmen are abducted from homes and workplaces at gunpoint and tortured. A sham religious court hears their case, usually declaring them guilty. Then they are forced to speak into a video camera.
The taped confessions, which are later distributed on CD, vary in style and content. But their endings are the same: execution by hanging, beheading or firing squad.
These are Cicero's BFFL Al Qaeda terrorists who torture till they get a confession, then there is an execution. Guilty or not... there is a confession and execution. Cic calls it "due process"!

Yemen’s national security chief said on Tuesday that US drone strikes against Al-Qaeda targets will continue as the two governments keep up their counter-terrorism cooperation.
“The Yemeni-American cooperation, including the use of friendly aircraft, will continue,” Ali Hassan al-Ahmadi told reporters in Sanaa.
“Yemen is one of the countries that joined the international alliance to combat terrorism after the September 11,” 2001 attacks on the United States, he said.
Washington has been stepping up its support for Yemen’s battle against militants of Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), which it regards as the most active and deadliest franchise of the global jihadist network.

"In the beginning of a change, the Patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a Patriot."
Shakira was one-year-old when she was found severely burned and near death in a trash can in Pakistan's Swat Valley. The girl had been left to die after she was badly wounded by an alleged U.S. drone attack in 2009.
Whether the girl was wounded by a US Drone is speculation. She and two others were left to die in a trash can. No one, no parents, uncles, cousins, brothers or sisters have claimed Shakira as family despite wide spread attempts to find any relatives.

Yeah sure of course Obama can do no wrong, get off your knees and wipe your chin box and admit this girl was almost killed by your messiah.

Box has stated that all victims of drone attacks are justified.
He supports terrorism.
He supports terrorizing the public to justify taking guns.
He supported terrorizing the Viet Namese.
He suffers from blind patriotism.
It over rides his knowledge of right and wrong.
He knows full well that killing the innocent is wrong, yet he supports it anyway.
He knows full well that punishing law abiding citizens for the actions of some crazies is wrong.
He supports it anyway.
He knows you can't prevent crazy people from becoming murderers, so he seeks to make them use weapons of lesser destruction by punishing the law abiding.
It is severely convoluted logic.
He can't help himself. He truly believes the government can solve all problems and should be blindly followed.
He's a scared little girl that needs the government to keep him safe, by punishing people who follow the law.
Blind hysterical fear.
All the while yelling, the other guys are trying to use fear against you.
He states openly that people who question the killing of the innocent are scary.
He believes that the slaughter of humans will bring about good results.
It will never happen.
Punishing the innocent will only make more enemies.
Killing and injuring the innocent will only make more enemies.
