Drone strikes

For God's sake! Stop the pedantry, and use your brains.

Good idea.

Thanks jingl and nigglynellie.

I am not sure I have changed my views at all from earlier in the year. I have certainly learnt more though.

Maybe we should ponder how this all came about and who is funding who and who is making the money from this conflict. I am listening to David Cameron telling the House that they need to consider a bombing campaign in Syria.
It is worrying how easily the killing of others is bandied about.

Heartfelt agreement with Jingl's last post.

I know what soon means. I have been reading comments by some Gnetters along the lines of ... well it's regrettable but some innocent people dying is going to be inevitable and probably the lesser of two evils ... and thought, mmm, so long as it's not you, your children or grandchildren no doubt.

I should, of course, have said .. I know what Anniebach means.

What percentage of collateral killing by drones is acceptable for the greater or bigger good?
Ten, twenty, fifty?
Ninety percent of those killed by drones are not the intended target.

I do not find that at all acceptable.

War is war durhamjen. Christians pray.
We pray for God's will. Then whatever happens happens.

As regards drones.
I read this.

Taking that as 80% accurate, they seem to be better than some other methods?

[I do realise that whatever we say, you will not except war. Even if it is at your doorstep, you will do nothing and allow yourself and family to be killed].
