the problem with bombs is that they tend to kill a bunch of not-bad guys also which is really bad karma and PR for the US of A

this isn't so much a problem with bombs as it is a problem with launching them at targets you have identified only through the IR camera of an aerial robot, using information as tenuous as "height" to determine whether the white speck you're looking at is the intended target or not (I'm not loving kidding)

they made war lame, the great great etc. grandfathers of those guys would have lit the isis guys' village on fire and put the lot of them to the axe just for being foreign and died of the plague with no office desks or video game conrollers in sight and that's the way things should be

dying in war owns, but getting killed by a robot, or air force officer who isn't piloting a fighter jet, would be fail aids

ps, if you are an air force officer and you kill me while piloting a fighter jet, please deliver an appropriate top gun reference upon doing so

unless you strafe me while I'm parachuting, in which case you're a human being, that's worse than getting killed by a robot
