    It's clear this sort of tactic and technology is key to winning 21st Century wars. I read two really good books out on this topic. The first, MANHUNTING: REVERSING THE POLARITY OF WARFARE, argues that this how wars of the next century will be fought. The author traces the history of this sort of operation, and provides recommendations on how to make "manhunting" a formal national security option. The second book, CRUSH THE CELL: HOW TO DEFEAT TERRORISM WITHOUT TERRORIZING OURSELVES, makes a point that these are the types of tactics needed to counter terrorists. Thanks Newsweek -- this was a great article, and highlights a transformational aspect of combat operations.

    NOW JUST A MINUTE: ALL THEM DRONES FLYING ALL OVER THESE COUNTRIES AND THEY CAN'T LOCATE THAT Ben (whatever his name is) that ordered the destruction of over 300 lives on 911? Oh, Cheney and Bush was in power then too. They should have been watching the drone monitors, by now, one would think.

    BlueFoxOne, you're so silly.

    If Bush really was a dictator and did this kind of thing to individuals, he'd have a drone over YOUR house right now. Ooooooooo, maybe you'd better go outside and look!
