What do we want to be as a nation? A country with a permanent kill list? A country where people go to the office, launch a few kill shots and get home in time for dinner? A country that instructs workers in high-tech operations centres to kill human beings on the far side of the planet because some government agency determined that those individuals are terrorists?
Kurt Volker, quoted in the Economist’s article onĀ Unmanned aerial vehicles: Death from afar.
