Assassination is a dirty word, but perhaps it sometimes seems necessary, but I wish some less legally dubious method was used to bring these people to justice. I am not sure why these attacks aren't done by the one of the branches of the US military, those organizations also use drones and I am sure there are many people in the military who are expert in such technology.
assassination is illegal because it is a slippery slop and hard to draw a line on when to do it but just like everything else laws get out dated the line from targeted assassination and legal warefare is begining to blur and its gonna get harder and harder to see the line in the future. so the only thing to do is for the people to stand up and tell their gov. what should be allowed and have them take it under advisement and new laws need to be admitted globally not from country to country.
you cant stop progress especially electronical progress the future of warfare depends on this technology. Now as in all new technology you have to be careful about how it is used and who is using it. The men and women controlling these things need to be trained scratch that HIGHLY TRAINED in the fact that human life (targets&innocent)lies at their finger tips. it is much easier to push a button on a screen to kill then pull a trigger while looking into their eyes but this stuff is here to stay!
You take a game like xbox, that has all those stats, pull the intel off the nsa computer archives, and you have yourself some awesome computer screen soldiers.
Tech gets militarized, put to civilian use, and comes back to militarized again; interesting.
This guy about the legality of the CIA doing this? Does he not know how they have distributing narcoleptic to fund they're program for years already? At least since Vietnam. NO congressional over-site when you fund this way.
The CIA is flying these drones in Pakistan a clear violation of Pakistan air space.
If US taxpayers don't start putting some heat on their government I don't believe you'll have to worry about it because the country called United States of America won't exist.
My point of view the US is toast...its turning into or is a 3rd world dung heap.
Over 90% of all modern war time casualties are civilian.. non-combatants.. unable to defend themselves against modern warfare weapons, except at close range with black market weapons..
Why does the army guard the poppy fields? To protect the heroin business from Al Qaeda? Don't you mean so YOU (the CIA) can KEEP control of 90% of the WHOLE worlds heroin supply...
The problem is that we have too many refugees in pakistan and they are free to roama nd enter pakistan, there is 4.5 million afghans, look at india they deported most of them and look at Irna they are put in babed wires camps, I live in peshawar, no one try to deport them. Long live pakistan and its forces, I am pusthoon but I call myself pakistani
Most of the hard intelligence is classified. President Obama simply can not talk about it.
I am as much against the war as you are.
There's a really good film I always refer to called, "The Siege". The explanation in the film related to the U.S. involvement in the Middle East. I believe we did some evil shit and these people want retaliation.
Secondly, another good film Kingdom of Heaven, which has a good quote, "The Muslims will never forget". That's because they won't.
As usual, CNN is carefully applying its usual anti-Democratic spin by carefully selecting the "facts" that it chooses to "report." CNN is WORSE than FOX! At least FOX's lies are obvious. CNN's right-wing spin is almost impossible to detect and extremely difficult to prove.
and if he wasn't doing anything about the so-called "war on terror", you can be damn well certain these same people chewing him out would CHEW him out for not doing a thing about it. There's a difference between having a disagreement of ideologies and just looking for something to bitch about to make you feel about yourself.
That said, I, personally, want him to just stop ALL these military actions, but that's the same view I had of Bush also: it's consistent and my aim isn't to just bitch.
Take people in a poor country, Offer them rewards for info. They turn in their business competitor they hate or the neighbor dumping trash in their yard.. They get cash and their enemy dies. Great plan. How could this great plan possibly go wrong?
The Afghans considered the Soviet use of airplanes against them to be dishonorable and cowardly (given that they have no planes of their own).
One can only wonder what they think of the use of these drones.

British Empire did the same scam in the 1850's(Boxer Rebellion in China)
This time through the advance of C-130 transportation the children of the world get access to cheap H and the CIA black ops can be properly funded.
All with the blessing of the various inbred Culiga's running the globe into the ground.
Truly in my opinion the globe's toast...

ENDGAME = End of Civilization , Subversion of the US constitution
Rule of Law= Natural Born only for POTUS Obama not eligible
Rule of Law = Gold, Silver only no bills of credit (Fed Note)
