22.06.2010 ~ Proper Predator drone protocol
I'd like to remind the short sighted jet fighter pilot wannabes who fly those Predator drone strikes from their consoles in their casino basements in Las Vegas some proper 'drone protocol' when killing terrorists in other peoples countries by raining all kinds of hell from medium altitudes.
It's pretty basic, but the fact is that nearly 100 Pakistani civilians die for every terrorist killed obviously means the 'basic' part has went over a lot of your heads.
Put simply, here are the instances' in which you don't fire a missile up some terrorists ass:
If the terrorist is...
...visiting the orphanage where he grew up
Landing a Hellfire missile from a Predator drone on orphans who are orphans in the first place because a Hellfire missile from a Predator drone killed their parents only seems to generally piss the Pakistani populace off even more.
...praying in a mosque
When 'infidel' missiles blow up a terrorist in a mosque it tends to make more terrorists, and while this may keep you Predator jockeys in the job it'll make the rest of the world hate your countries foreign policy even more.
...talking to some kids in a playground
If you do kill some children you could always tell your superiors they had already been indoctrinated so instead of 1 terrorists and 15 children dead it could be 16 terrorists dead, it tends to look better on your log report!
...playing video games
If you have been circling your drone over the terrorists house for several days as a result of him staying in playing World of Warcraft you can rest assured he has given up on life, but not by strapping a suicide belt onto himself and running into a market place but instead by spending all his time bad mouthing people on the internet.
You have a choice here, a Hellfire missile paid by the US taxpayers might be worth it in this situation, think the immediate relief that will be felt across the world when you take out just one of those loud mouthed assholes with strong foreign accents that are always in your ear when you're trying to play an MMORPG.
You might be given that opportunity, to do us all a great deed.
