>>Yet contrary to tradition the American President claims he can do what he forbids fired on soldiers to do<<

Good point. I don't have an answer. I understand the slippery slope concern, and the hard legal and moral issues. And that said, as much as I'm no admirer of Obama, it seems to me that drone attacks are a relatively low cost way of making the bad guy's life hell.

In the end, as (I think) UW would say, war is ugly. There is simply no way to kill human beings nicely and neatly. We need to remember that we did not start this. If they would not bother us - we would not bother them.
