Tho he was otherwise horrible, Peter King did point to reason why Obama can't forswear torture: his drone program.http://foreignpolicy.com/2014/12/12/from-bush-to-obama-eyes-wide-shut-torture-drones/ …
@mjohnson201457 If CIA drone program (distinct fr drones) sustain expensive war, keep us exposed, that also hurts middle class.

@emptywheel War is torture 2 the mind of those having 2 fight. PTS. lives ruined for someone else's agenda which is never satisfied no win
-
@mjohnson201457 Yes. Just like the PTSD drone pilots suffer from. You're making my point for me. -
@emptywheel I simply agree with use of drones til we stop war altogether. I rest my case. Thx for your imput of opinion. -
@mjohnson201457 Well, i hope you reflect on the way you're also endorsing war crimes, then.

@emptywheel Cost of drones doesn't out way the saving of a wives or of the children who now have a chance of seeing their loved one's again -
@mjohnson201457 Sorry. Americans only exposed 1) if we're at war 2) if we make ourselves more hated. Drones do both of those. -
@emptywheel@mjohnson201457 even if we accept the absurd logic that US lives are more important, we're not safer http://www.livingunderdrones.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Stanford-NYU-Living-Under-Drones.pdf … -
@Raza_inc@emptywheel I am being honest as you are being honest about your concerns and opinions. I do stick to mine. Stop war altogether. -
@Raza_inc@emptywheel There's no right in war. Period. War for oil, minerals, business ventures, over seas banking. Not worth life of poor. -
@mjohnson201457@emptywheel study in the link shows that we're increasing the# of terrorist by using drones that doesn't make poor ppl safer -
@Raza_inc@emptywheel That's what's wrong with war period, drones no drones, there's always payback. A part of this sickness called war. -
@mjohnson201457@emptywheel War's not hell by nature so to speak & civilians die & war is hell because we make it that way - 1 more reply
