War. What is it good for?
"There is no question in my mind that drone warfare is much better and safer, and results in less collateral damage than putting a human at the tip of a spear."
There's a certain irony about "safer warfare" I suppose. Personally I think that being at the end of the spear instead of thousands of miles away is a sharp reminder that this is real death, injury and destruction, and not a high res video game. I'd also like to think that looking your enemy in the eye makes you reflect on the horror of conflict. If not in the heat of battle, at least afterwards.
Then I remember ISIS, or IR or whatever they're called now.
Pint, because I think I need one.
