Unbelievable accounting that will never make American media. Don't miss the photos. Three parts:

1. The Woes of an American Drone Operator

2. An Unpopular Job

3. No Room for the Evils of the World

1. I remember during Vietnam when bombadiers reportedly started balking

about their targets... I wasn't in a position to know more than rumors but I can see how it happens.

2. Yes, that sounds familiar

Take away for me is Americans have got to stop kiling children - ALL children.

3. That won't happen until all war stops.

A child is killed over there and they convince you it is a dog. A child is killed over here and they tell you it is okay to call it a tragedy.
