Drone Porn: The Newest YouTube Hit
"With an aim of promoting UAVs domestically as well as "enlightening" our enemies, the Defense Department recently began placing the Predator and Reaper mission clips on YouTube. Ranging from relatively detached wide shots of bombings taken by onboard cameras to startlingly graphic close-ups, the so-called "drone porn" has been a smash hit, as it were, tallying over 10 million views.

"Perhaps best explaining its popularity are the thousands of YouTube commenters. Some marvel at the new technology and discuss the resulting paradigm shift in warfare. Some raise questions, including whether it's principled, dignified or otherwise in America's best interest to post drone prone in the first place. Most comments are along the lines of, "Hell yeah HOOOAH BABY!"

1. I post sometimes on Code Pink Facebook wall
you would not believe the horrible things some people post on there. armchair warriors attacking Code Pink ladies, real idiots. the mentality of these morons is below that of a grub.
I do not doubt they love these 'games' . the adolescent chest thumping 12 yr old bullshit reeks.
and whats sad is, the Code Pink women are trying to end the wars.
but the 12 yr olds seem to be running this country. hooahh indeed. frigging adults who need to grow the fuck up.

But those ladies are troopers.
