That means we need a way to stop the murders now, before zealots on both sides keep war as a way of life. Let there be peace! ********** [190645:101412] R.F., Wheaton, IL Targeted executions aren't something the US should be doing. We provide people with trials instead of assuming they're guilty. The drone killings must stop. ********** [075938:092512] H.R., Denton, TX How can we be teaching the rule of law while we are killing anyone we want to? Since when has bombing people, even if we think they are guilty, been an American value? "My" government is killing women and children too. I have never felt so ashamed to be an American. We have sunk to the level of the people we call our enemies. Peace - Haj Ross ********** [202954:090912] P.S., Zephyr Cove, NV When are the drones going to target US, when our president says he can kill at his own discretion? ********** [170019:072812] D.S., Loveland, CO Drone attacks are worthy only of a dictatorship, not a democracy. ********** [055752:072312] D.W., Conway, MA Terrorists strike without warning so that a population is in constant fear of attack. That's what armed drones do. this is not different from the unexpected mass murderer's actions at the Batman movie last week. These are all outrageous and heinous attacks but the drones are worse because they are funded by ME. Stop murdering in my name! ********** [125314:071612] A.P., Miami Beach, FL Stop the drone mass murders!!! ********** [040939:071412] R.O., Indianapolis, IN This is nothing but murder by remote and not an example of a country setting leadership ********** [210410:071312] C.N., Laguna Hills, CA Drone attacks are creating ever more enemies. We do not have to policetheentire world singlehandedly. ********** [074112:071212] R.C., Riverhead, NY Bad enough that we don't have a draft so the people do not have to be responsible for what is done in their name, but the use of drones is unconscionable. I have great difficulty voting for a president that employs them. And what is this about trying to end the war in Iraq? Just word sound with no power or reality behind it. ********** [135451:070912] R.Y., Grand Rapids, MI This is a cruel and cowardly way to conduct "warfare." America's reputation as an honorable nation is going down the toilet. ********** [222200:070812] L.W., Oakland, CA Drone warfare is unbelievably evil mass murder and must be stopped! ********** [173141:070812] S.K., Salem, OR I can support the idea of targeting real criminals, I hear too many interviews of common folk losing loved ones and homes. We are recruiting enemies by default. ********** [132816:070612] C.S., Lower Lake, CA Outrage over this kind of killing and the terrible results that it will bring on the USA is the only sane response to our use of Drone warfare. Do we have real leaders capable of intelligent choices here. It does not appear so. Congress needs to do some major clean up! ********** [184151:070512] E.B., Seattle, WA Declare victory and leave Afghanistan, now! War is the failure of diplomacy! ********** [110624:070512] B.C., Aiken, SC To assess either the morality or the strategic value of drone strikes, we have only to imagine that WE are the targets. This way of waging war is impersonal and detached only in our minds, to the slaughtered and shattered human beings on the ground, it is completely personal. There is NO excuse for murdering children. None. Ever! They have no say in where they were born or to whom, so even if the adults around them are guilty of something (which absolutely is not always the case), these blessed innocents should not have to die for what is not their fault. No innocent adult should be killed, either. Remember the howls of outrage when our own innocent people were murdered on 9/11? Why is it so hard, then, to understand how wrong these drone strikes are??? ********** [145412:070412] J.M., Lenexa, KS How long before growing your own garden in your own yard causes you to be under attack by drones? ********** [112936:070412] s.r., Stow, OH 9/11 was an inside job. it's hilarious how many folks all about this unfortunate (that the yoo ess is such a warpig) world know that 9/11 was an inside job. yet our poor excuse for a--holes in so-called gummint just play stoooopid about the fact that the offishal story of 9/11 was TOTALLY IMPOSSIBLE. WHOOOPS. stop all war and drones and all that s--t. i am so goddamn ashamed of my cuntry i could vomit. what a pack of lying, theivin, corrupt bastards and whores. may they be forever haunted by the S--T that they have done, and um, 9/11 was an inside job. we all know it. wait til your time is up, muh, pearly gates i don't think so. luv, sandy ps was this of respectful and acceptable in taste? yes, it was. they deserve more than we could ever imagine. fake planes on 9/11. look up the Web Fairy online. grassius. ********** [093833:070412] J.H., Oak Park, MI Murder is murder. Drones should ONLY be used for surveilance. We are the most (technologically) advance nation that's ever existed. Let's use drones to get intelligence and then go after our enemies like men WITHOUT "collateral damage". Lest we are worse than Tim McVeigh and his buddies. ********** [103132:070312] N.M., Oak Park, IL People in the U.S. did not pay sufficient attention to the dire warnings of George Orwell in his novel ,1984. Now The American people are paying taxes to be spied upon by their own government! This comment may not be respectful or in acceptable taste, but tragicaly it is the truth. ********** [062546:070312] T.B., Westwood, NJ On any grounds you can conjure, morality, economic, national security, drone murders have to stop. ********** [171733:070212] R.T., Temple, TX Killing a confirmed enemy of this country is one thing, but when that impersonal technological action from around the world causes the deaths of innocent bystanders and especially children, it become negligent homicide. It must end. We used to be a nation of morals, but something has gone wrong in the body politic. We are now a nation of Sheeple, inured to the large scale brutality and murder. Let's put an end to it, what do you sat? ********** [123259:070212] G.J., Middletown, OH this troubles me in a deep, profound way. It strikes me that given the direction the leadership of this country is taking us, the terrorists have won. Their goal was to destroy the America that existed before their attack on the WTC and in my mind, they have done so. Thanks for falling right into their trap! ********** [103534:070212] L.K., Stuart, FL If war is all right, then Jesus Christ was all wrong. ********** [190841:070112] M.M., Oak Harbor, WA Please find another way to end the wars. Stop the mass murders using the drones. ********** Go Back
