Indeed. I seem to recall a long ago story where a bad actor planned an attack that killed 13 of our guys. We brought the entire weight and might of the United States to bear on that planner and droned him into oblivion. Oops- we droned a dude driving a car full of kids. Wrong dude.

I wouldn’t be surprised if we vaporized a pregnant woman (can I say that?) enjoying a sunset. But! That would make for a great press release.

Queue applause.

This is a positive thing for The US Government.

This means that the 2003- War in Iraq, is now a morally good war/conflict, since- The US is again justified to attack and go to war against countries who are the enemies of the US, and single-person enemies of the US, and [these people] having weapons of mass destruction is not needed to justify these wars and combats.

We abandoned Afghanistan. It was in all the papers. To zap somebody there doesn’t change that.
I’m cool with keeping the war going? Planet check; this is Earth.
The Islamofascists are cool with keeping it going. I hope not to lose.
