PR work for the predator.. " see folks, we can do more then just Kill civilians!".. it would be a little unnerving to see one of those circling around

it's gods will that the vermin should be purged from the earth. this is what they get for messing with voodoo the fucking barbarian bastards

Nice to see the US are putting money into this unless junk.

I wonder if they are dropping off some Mcy'D's... thought this was supposed to be a relief mission. Nice seeing a well funded program in use.... ok, not really. lol

for all intents and purposes, google maps does a pretty good job of checking out the devastation in haiti. those fucking spy planes are flying over cuba.(or some other poor central american country)

hmm...I always thought they were smaller

[soundsliketruck]

I am sure someone will find a conspiracy in this.

i think he thought you were asking a general question in regards to the use of unmanned aircrafts. Obviously Haiti is not jamming our satellites. It is a better medium than satellite can be in some ways though for all uses, I think thats pretty much proven fact.
