Of course he hasn't. He knows what the headlines he's grazed over have told him, which is apparent, otherwise this thread wouldn't even exist.



There are so many things wrong with his suggestion it's literally appalling.

Overall I am against droning, but in this case I might make an exception.

Overall, you're extremely flawed. You are the guy that doesn't cheat on his wife, until you see a hot girl and are drunk right? Nice principles, nice belief system, nice caveat that you are 'against droning' besides killing sovereign leaders of nations.

NKorea is a sovereign country, they haven't declared war us and we haven't on them and we have not been attacked regardless of empty threats.

Listen to the sheeple and their propaganda we have to deal with in 2013.

What's this concern over drones?

Do you think that killing a guy by firing a missile from a drone, is any different than doing it with a missile from an FA-18? Or an infantryman walking up to him and popping him with a pistol?

A drone is just another way of doing the same thing, without exposing Americans to enemy fire.

That's a nice thought, but the main opposition to drones is that most strikes are preemptive (against the rules of engagement) and done typically in nations we are not at war with (against international law).

They declared the armistice void which leaves us where exactly?

Well, they certainly have 5 million hungry soldiers.

It's probably more likely that they are sabre-rattling-for-food because they are worried their soldiers are going to turn on them.

It's more than a nice thought. It's a FACT.

So it's not opposition to drones at all?

It's opposition to the purpose of the strike, and to the intended target instead?

Not so sure about that. It's not working out so well for us with 12million criminal aliens. It would cost SK just as much.
