[Vision2020] GPS Tracking and Secret Policies

[Sunil Ramalingam]

I don't know what I'd do in that situation, Tom. But before that happened, and after, I'd say 'Get out of Vietnam.'

And now I say 'Get out of Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Tunisia, and wherever the hell else we are.'

Again, Sunil . . . 
I do not support arming drones for the specific purpose of killing children or civilians.
Here is a scenario that has played itself out several times in Vietnam:
Suppose you are in an infantry unit in a combat zone.  You are performing duties as a perimeter guard at an OP (observation post).  You observe a 7-year-old girl approaching the OP with explosives strapped to her body, knowing that the explosives will be detonated once the 7-year-old girl enters the OP.
What do you do?

Tom,

We send drones after rescuers and funerals. We kill civilians, including children.

Are you in agreement with these attacks? You really think you've said enough?

Sunil iterates:
"Is it necessary to say Obama specifically uses drones to attack civilians, including children? I don't think so."
Then, why did he ask:
"Do you support the following:

-Using drones to kill children, civilians, US citizens [my emphasis] without due process"
'Nuff said.
