Drone Wars



Can cylons be far behind?

A missile fired by an American drone killed at least four people late Sunday at the house of a militant commander in northwest Pakistan, the latest use of what intelligence officials have called their most effective weapon against Al Qaeda.

And Pentagon officials say the remotely piloted planes, which can beam back live video for up to 22 hours, have done more than any other weapons system to track down insurgents and save American lives in Iraq and Afghanistan...


And the four people killed late Sunday at the home of a militant commander? Militants? Combatants? Civilians? Innocent? Guilty? Or just more statistics?
