One example is Qari Hussain, who was a deputy commander of the Pakistani Taliban. A Hellfire missile fired by one of Obama’s Predator drones blew up Hussain on Oct. 15 , 2010. To the president, this was a success.

What the White House doesn’t say, however, is there were five previous drone attacks against Hussain. All five failed, killing scores of innocent people.“For the death of a man whom practically no American can name, the U.S. killed 128 people, 13 of them children, none of whom it meant to harm.”

The 128 civilians-to-one-militant death ratio doesn’t even address the legality of targeting Hussain himself, in violation of a 30 -year-old executive order banning political assassinations, not to mention the long-standing U.S. political tradition prohibiting such actions. All drone assassinations are illegal, but the sloppiness of this program is insane.

Al-Qaida leader Ayman Zawahiri, for example, has survived two drone attacks that killed 76 children and 29 adults.

According to Reprieve’s analysis as of Nov. 24th, 1,147 people were killed in attempts to kill 41 men.

“Drone strikes have been sold to the American public on the claim that they’re ‘precise,” Jennifer Gibson of Reprieve told the Guardian. “But they are only as precise as the intelligence that feeds them.There is nothing precise about intelligence that results in the deaths of 28 unknown people, including women and children, for every “bad guy” the U.S. goes after.”

We killed 100k Iraqis civilians with conventional weapons and bombs, and did you cry assassination.......nope. You seem to be getting more confused. I know you are no where near as old as Mr. Markle......have you been eating properly and exercising......or is this just a post after waking from your afternoon nap?
