Introducing The Death Planes (The Drone War)

 "The nation which indulges towards another a habitual hatred or a habitual fondness is in some degree a slave. It is a slave to its animosity or to its affection, either of which is sufficient to lead it astray from its duty and its interest. Antipathy in one nation against another disposes each more readily to offer insult and injury, to lay hold of slight causes of umbrage, and to be haughty and intractable, when accidental or trifling occasions of dispute occur. Hence, frequent collisions, obstinate, envenomed, and bloody contests. The nation, prompted by ill-will and resentment, sometimes impels to war the government, contrary to the best calculations of policy. The government sometimes participates in the national propensity, and adopts through passion what reason would reject; at other times it makes the animosity of the nation subservient to projects of hostility instigated by pride, ambition, and other sinister and pernicious motives. The peace often, sometimes perhaps the liberty, of nations, has been the victim."

George Washington





Introduction to the recent drone debate...

“I think what the president has seen is that our denial of the existence of the program – when it’s obviously happening – undermines peoples’ confidence overall in the decisions that their government makes,” Gibbs said.




A leaked government document details the legal argument supporting the president's use of drones to kill eventual Al Qaeda suspects. - See more at: http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/wed-february-6-2013/skygall#sthash.yWexrb9u.dpuf
Obama's drone program's operational details (legal argument to kill Al Qaeda suspects, incl. US Citizens)... 





Obama administration hypocrisy concerning their drone program vs the earlier torture program?



As John Grisham did in one of his books where a black girl was having trouble getting justice until the lawyer made the Jury imagine her as white (the abuser got the death sentence). i.e. Imagine all the children listed dead below as white.

  • [ From: Imran Khan (official) exclusive interview with the Economist Magazine.]

     Imran Khan on Pakistan...



    At 4 minutes and 30 seconds Imran Khan points out that...

    "If people in Britain, for instance know exactly what these drones are doing I reckon they'll be bigger demonstrations here than in our own country. Because these are violations of all Humanitarian laws.

    On some information, which might or might not be correct, someone sitting thousands of miles away... presses a button and people are blown up! Houses are blown up in villages. They hit houses in the villages. People gather around and come to rescue the survivors minus limbs, another drone attack kills 7 people, killing the survivors, for another hour no one goes near the site, there are screams of the survivors... again people come to rescue them, ANOTHER drone attack and another 7 people are killed - 22 people are killed in this!

    I don't know who is the brain power behind this...

    Number 1: It is immoral

    Number 2: It is completely counterproductive. All it does is it creats Anti-Americanism which is now worse than ever in our history.

    You win the war on terror if you win the hearts and minds of the people"


    Interviewer Question: Do the drone attack lead you to be Anti-American

    Answer: I can't be Anti-American cause I realize that the majority of Americans would agree with me! Majority people in Britain are anti war. I'm anti THIS policy. Jimmy Carter critisized these drones attacks."

    Note: This isn't war. This IS terrorism by the Pentagon.

Sundance award winner:

The documentary "Dirty Wars: The World is a Battlefield" follows investigative journalist Jeremy Scahill to Afghanistan, Somalia and Yemen as he chases down the hidden truth behind America’s expanding covert wars, focusing on the Obama administration’s increasing use of armed drones and secretive units including the Joint Special Operations Command. On Saturday, the film’s director, Richard Rowley, was awarded the Sundance Film Festival prize for best cinematography in a U.S. documentary, honored for "elevating the art of observational cinema through sophisticated lensing and an electric-color palette." Accepting the award, Rowley said: "Almost three years ago, when Jeremy and I knocked on a door in Gardez in rural Afghanistan, we were the first Americans that a family there had seen since Americans kicked their door in and killed half their family. And they invited us in, and they shared the most difficult story of their lifetime with us, because we promised them we’d do everything we could to make their story heard in America." 

George Carlin on American Foreign Policy - Bombing Brown People...

‎"And I'm not a really good American because I like to form my own opinions. I don't just roll over when I'm told to. Sad to say most Americans just roll over on command. Not me, not me. I have certain rules I live by, my first rule... I don't believe anything the government tells me" George Carlin http://youtu.be/dDw-zFFhFgc
