Does distance erode our moral sense or are drone bombers merely modern day snipers with a very, very long range? They certainly do provide a more efficient means of warfare although not as safe as we would be led to believe. But the lack of reporting on drone attacks is worrying. We have the right to know what warfare our politicians and military are getting up to while we sleep easy in our beds, don’t we? And just because the missiles are being launched from some hidden location in a desert in USA it doesn’t mean they don’t exist, does it? It’s all about clarity and accountability.

What clarity and accountability did we have when bombers and rockets struck London during WW11.
ReplyDeleteDo you want immediate info because we expect it in this internet world. What info was given about bombing raids on Germany and German occupied territory during two world wars.
I think you are being disingenuous about this - next thing you will want us to let them know in advance where we are going to target.
