The Drone Wars

AlterNet: Drone Wars Produce PTSD Victims on Both Sides - In Washington’s drone wars, collateral damage comes home. By Pratap Chatterjee
In addition to those they kill, Washington’s drones turn out to wound (in ways both physical and psychological) their own operators and the populations who live under their constant surveillance. They leave behind very real victims with all-too-real damage, often in the form of post-traumatic stress disorder on opposite sides of the globe.

They gotta stop with these things it's wrong they're killing mostly innocent people. It reminds me of what we did in Vietnam and we all see how that worked out.

The American people seem to want it. They allow it to happen because they don't want to see troops coming back in body bags. That's basically why it got started and why it continues.
