quote from page 30 of Time Magazine of Feb. 11th 2013
begin quote: "a U.N. special rapporteur has written, "If other states were to claim the broad based authority that the United States does, to kill people anywhere, anytime, the result would be chaos." end quote.
begin next quote same page,"---the practical effectiveness of drone strikes is undermined by their tendency to outrage and radicalize populations against the U.S. As controversial as it is, there was heartwarming bipartisan agreement in last fall's Presidential election that American drone policy wasn't going to be seriously discussed by either candidate." end quote.
Next quote same page, "Bottom line: the U.S. seems to be struggling to adapt its 20th century moral code of warfare to the 21st century practice of sending flying robots into other countries to kill people. It appears drones are evolving faster than American's ability to understand how, legally, and ethically to use them." end quote from page 30 of the Time magazine of Feb. 11th 2013.
