Nothing armed with weapon ment to kill an indivudual is ‘nutreal’. Nor is there any such thing as a ‘percision guided weapon’.

Remember, the point of launching an armed drone is to find a target and destory it. Americans and Israelis launch these weapons to drive them to a specific target, destroy it, and everything around it.

If the weapon ‘accidently’ kills an innocent person, it served its purpose, to kill someone.

@Steve
There is no difference. But the fact that civilians are marked as “suspected militants” upon being killed is the matter here.

@mindy1

Weapons are made for killing obviously, and the drone strikes that the Obama administration launches are known to be killing large amounts of civilians in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Somalia, Yemen, etc.

Also then on Peter King it is impossible to take this guy seriously when you learn he was a staunch IRA supporter in the past!! And the only “difference” he brings up why it was okay for him to support the IRA but yet then fearmonger about supposed “Islamist terrorists”, is that supposedly according to Peter King the IRA “never killed Americans”. This has actually been shown to be completely wrong on his part as an IRA bombing against Harrods in London DID kill an American citizen http://www.salon.com/2011/03/09/peter_king_ira_american_bomb/singleton/

And also using Peter King’s own “logic”, then why should any American be convicted of supporting a Palestinian resistance group like Hamas or Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ)?! None of these armed Palestinian resistance groups has ever targeted America or Americans, they only fight against the Zionist entity (so unless “Israel” is now officially the 51st state of America, then doing attacks in or against “Israel” and “Israelis” should not be reason to make one a terrorist group by American standards again by Peter King’s own logic). I’ve occasionally also seen some defenders of King respond to this point by saying, “well if you support Palestinian groups your going against American foreign policy of supporting ‘Israel’”!! Putting aside the injustice of US support for “Israel”! One can throw that same argument back against King as the US government’s official policy throughout the 1980s was still to support the US government’s likely closest ally: the British government against the IRA! It gets really interesting if one reads into it as American politicians tried to balance the longstanding alliance with the UK government versus not wanting to upset or sometimes actually trying to court the Irish-American vote in different US states and cities (like say Chicago) were support for the IRA and Northern Ireland independence was found.
