Under Rick Perry, I'm sure fewer will get killed in Pakistan. Iran, well that may be a different story.

I don't put much credibility in casualty reports from Pakistan, and it's not exactly a secret that they hide behind women and kids there.

So I tend to blame them.

Also, I know damn well that if this were a Republican President doing this you would all be defending him tooth and nail.

I guessed the folks missed where more children were killed in 2.5 years under Obama than 8 years under Bush.

Good point! We had authorization from a Democrat Congress to enter those countries. Obama's Libyan and Yemen war numbers aren't in yet I suppose.

Thanks for your insight.

One logical explanation to that would be that Obama has his killing machine (the military) focused along Afghanistan-Pakistan border, as opposed to Iraq.
