  It’s not terrifying whatsoever. In an active combat zone there are two kinds of people - enemy combatants and allies.

  Your throw an RFID chip on allies and boom you’re done

      The vast majority of war zones have 0 civilians.

      I am not. Turns out you can pick and choose where and when to use drones.

        Preeeetty sure you are. And if you can, you should probably let the US military know they can do that, because they haven’t bothered to so far.

      I’m sorry but I just don’t see why a drone is scarier than a missile strike.
