Americans can't continue to pretend that these airstrikes are precise, and that only terrorist vermin are dying. Americans are supporting the murder of innocent people, women, children and old men, when they don't protest these insane military actions. Obama is playing Techno-Warrior to get re-elected because he obviously thinks ordinary Americans are bloodthirsty and will think he's a tough commander if he has a kill-list and sends drones in to kill bad guys. The problem is that locals have learned they can give the US military information on targets for cash, so the locals are giving good and bad information, and because Obama doesn't want to capture terrorists and hold them at Gauntanamo, seeing as how he said he would close it, he's killing in a way that takes the lives of innocent people, thus creating more terrorists than he's killing. It's horrific to continue the drone strikes when it's known that information is unreliable and innocent people are being killed, and it's unconscionable to brag about it. The American people must put an end to this by letting politicians know that we aren't on board -- that we aren't bloodthirsty yahoos impressed by big missiles and mass killings.
