6 Killed in US Drone Strike in Afghanistan, Main Victims Civilians
http://www.islamicinvitationturk…
...The spokesman further said that the drone strike took place in the provincial Lal Pur district on Wednesday.
A similar strike on Wednesday, reportedly killed at least 3 people in Afghanistan’s eastern province of Logar. The US-led terror drones also killed at least seven people in the neighboring province of Khost on Sunday.
The US carries out targeted killings through drone strikes in Yemen, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Somalia.
Washington claims the targets of the drone attacks are al-Qaeda militants, but local officials and witnesses maintain that civilians have been the main victims of the attacks over the past few years.

so... a western media sees the world as: drone strike in hostile territory = casualties of war. jihadist killings in own country = terrorism. right? is that your point?

They don't need drones, in afghanistan many afghans are killed by other afghans who are islamists, and many afghans asked the westerners for help so you can't compare that.

now lets move to syria
what irony though,
“The missile was very powerful and destroyed the building completely,” said al Ali. “According to the information we gathered, 80 bodies were found after the strike, 25 of them are Islamic State fighters and the rest are prisoners.” More than half of those were believed to be civilians held for violations of Sharia.

If drones are used for surgical removal of enemies, why are they still using explosive missiles.
Relying on explosions as the solution seems a bit "bad design" to me. Can't they fire something that penetrates a bunker and then stabs through the intended target?
