May I ask what the billionaires owe you? The problem with america is people vote incapable politicians into office simply because those politicians promise "free" items to the masses. We do not need to spread around wealth so everyone is happy. If people would get off the couch and make a living this nation would be better off, but why work when such and such politician promises to give you freebies if you give your vote.

Judging by your posts that's clearly not true.
You're advocating the killing of men, women and children merely upon the proviso that the President of the United States has decreed that they are "terrorists."

Terrorists actually exist, I know you don't have first hand experience with that fact. I wonder why that is....

I never said they didn't. And you do have first hand experience? I haven't seen you post it, but if you have please share it with us.

America and russia has attacked many more countries then nazi germany ever did and killed way more people too. Get real man! Just because the nazi cause has been distorted and demonised to death does not mean it is worse than capitalism.
Nationalism Socialism is exactly what we need! Get the #ing foreigners out of my country!
This is all I needed to hear. We are completely opposed in our world views. I love all people, and wish freedom for every human life. In short - f*ck off with that BS.

I may come across as hateful but it is simply frustration from having to hear so many packaged lies for years on end with nothing to do about it. I don't hate people for the sake of hating them. But yes I do hate evil people who wish me and others harm.
It is time to see america and the world for what they are. America comes first for americans, and at a time of increaing problems, looking out for foreign entities is stupid, to put it mildely.

To my amazement we actually have never made a mistake there to my knowledge.
Shaye, a Yemeni journalist based in Sana'a, had a reputation for independent journalism through his neutral interviewing of al-Qaida operatives, and of critics of US policy such as Anwar al-Awlaki. Journalist colleagues in Yemen dismiss the notion of any terrorist affiliation: Shaye had worked for the Washington Post, ABC news, al-Jazeera, and other major media outlets.
Shaye went to al-Majala in Yemen, where a missile strike had killed a group that the US had called "al-Qaida". "What he discovered," reports Scahill, "were the remnants of Tomahawk cruise missiles and cluster bombs … some of them bearing the label 'Made in the USA', and distributed the photos to international media outlets."
Fourteen women and 21 children were killed. "Whether anyone actually active in al-Qaida was killed remains hotly contested." Shortly afterwards, Shaye was kidnapped and beaten by Yemeni security forces. In a trial that was criticized internationally by reporters' groups and human rights organizations, he was accused of terrorism. Shaye is currently serving a five-year sentence.

If you think my post above implies that terrorists don't exist you are wrong.
I am criticizing the fact that you seem to be wholly comfortable with the fact that the President has vested himself with the power to arbitrarily determine who is a terrorist and then have them executed.
Innocent people have been killed in drone strikes but you seem to think that's okay or because they were killed they MUST have been terrorists. You seem to base the things you say on the idea that everything the government says is inherently true and therefore should not be challenged.
That's a dangerous mindset.
With seven seconds left to go, there was no one to be seen on the ground. Bryant could still have diverted the missile at that point. Then it was down to three seconds. Bryant felt as if he had to count each individual pixel on the monitor. Suddenly a child walked around the corner, he says.
Second zero was the moment in which Bryant's digital world collided with the real one in a village between Baghlan and Mazar-e-Sharif.
Bryant saw a flash on the screen: the explosion. Parts of the building collapsed. The child had disappeared. Bryant had a sick feeling in his stomach.
"Did we just kill a kid?" he asked the man sitting next to him.
"Yeah, I guess that was a kid," the pilot replied.
"Was that a kid?" they wrote into a chat window on the monitor.
Then, someone they didn't know answered, someone sitting in a military command center somewhere in the world who had observed their attack. "No. That was a dog," the person wrote.
