Many Americans hung their heads in shame during the height of Bush-era warmongering, but how would those same Americans react if they knew that drone strikes— perhaps the most evil-sounding of tech-based American military tactics — have increased fourfold since Bush left office?
Not only that, but the documented kill rate of militant leaders has decreased from 33% to 13%, meaning we're no longer reserving this treatment for high-value targets.
Of course, for Americans living on U.S. soil, drone strikes are only a distant concern. Over here, drones are only used to spy, as the FBI director openly admitted to Congress this June.
