I saw the drones on the tube -- including the ones that Iraq put on display earlier this year. The most recent one was definitely of the "built in the backyard" variety -- did you see it Victor, with tin foil and duct tape, driven by one of the those little hobbiest motors??? It sure looked menacing compared to the cruise missiles and medium range missiles in North Korea. I am sure that it could seriously hurt somebody if it flew right into your face. It could probably carry a payload of at least 20 pounds and looks like it could fly for many miles -- wow, what an awesome display of firepower -- no wonder we have hundred's of thousands of troops massed to attack.
