1. There is definitely a split in the State Dept and Defense over these deadly weapons which

have killed way more innocent people as the local know, than the US will admit to.

There is a man in Pakistan who has been documenting the deaths and it is heart-breaking to see the results of these cowardly WMDs on innocent people, many of them children.

After the killing of the 24 Pakistani soldiers, after trying to blame them for a while, but finally being forced to apologize, the US suspended the use of drones temporarily.

At that time, an official at the State Department stated in agreement with the decision that 'we cannot kill our way out of this'.

Imo, they are evil. But then so is all killing of innocents.

2. It is deeply immoral!

What more can you say!

3. Cenk is being way too credulous about Hayden

as he says in the beginning of the video, his record was atrocious. But then Cenk talks as if his concerns with the drone program are sincere. No way, imo. He has some other motive, probably to rehabilitate his own reputation. He's saying, "we got all this shit on us for what we did under Bush, look what Obama's doing, it's much worse!" However true that is, his concern isn't about the drone strikes, it's about politics.

4. Between 282 and 535

Interesting coincidence, for that is probably how many electoral votes Obama will get this fall.
