36. anyway you want

Phrase it anyway you want... I support the drone usage. Here is my take...it may be correct, it may be totally wrong, but if a country who "claims" they are against terrorism, who claim they will fight to prevent terrorism, does not fight the terrorists, who turn their asses away from the terrorists, who care enough about their own people to assist in stopping terrorism, well I want our children who are in the service protected.... use the drones. Hey Pakistan, Afghanistan, Syria,..... you want use to stop using drones, the stop supporting terrorism. Cornel West, you have become an arrogant radical windbag....I am sorry for civilian deaths, but again if these countries who support terrorism care about their people, then stop the support of terrorism....
