I saw that and thought...wow, we just killed 5 people in another sovereign nation with our drones. And nobody here blinks an eye over it.

Can anyone here even imagine what the reaction would be if another country sent a drone into the U.S. and killed 5 of our citizens with it?

And we do it everyday.


They report so much shit that goes on, you can't help but be sympathetic to those trying to cause harm to Americans. Every bomb that gets dropped, every life taken, creates a new enemy.

The US creates more enemies by doing this, every single day. They are fueling the fire, bomb by bomb. It's sickening.

And you are spot on, imagine this happening on US soil, EVERY DAY. It would breed a hatred so great for the attackers that half of the US would sign up to try to kill them, however they had to. Of course, the attackers would then call those people "insurgents" but in reality they are freedom fighters and heroes who are fighting a foreign invader.

Drone strike my house, kill my family, then see what I will spend the rest of my life trying to do to you and your people. It won't be pretty, and I'd probably be happy to die in the process of destroying you.
