The Washington Times reports that the Geezers for Sitting on Our Hands (otherwise know as Veterans for Peace) is sponsoring a national ad campaign urging drone pilots to refuse to fly their crafts;
“Drone pilots, please refuse to fly,” says one 15-second ad, which features stock footage of individuals digging through drone wreckage interspersed with images of dead children. “No one has to follow an immoral law,” scrolls across the screen.
“We want to get the word out. You hear that they are saving American lives, but you don’t really hear about the innocent women and children being targeted on the ground,” Mr. Vellucci, an Army veteran, told The Bee.
Yeah, as we’ve documented countless times here, there are very few actual veterans in VfP, and if there are any drone pilots who are going to get their professional development and legal advice from these shithouse lawyers, they deserve what they get.
Well, isn’t that special, and another colossal waste of time. But, as long as it’s their time and money, good entertainment for the rest of us.
How come they aren’t using the picture of the starving Afghan boy in their ad?
Copyright I’m sure.
How’s the book going?
Whatever. Just more electronic liquid manure we get poured in our lap each day.
We won’t change their minds until we’re fighting in our own streets. Probably not even then.
How is this not sedition?
If they were actually interested in stopping drone attacks, why are they going after the drone pilots rather than the President they voted for and put into office? You’d think they’d hold President Mom Jeans more responsible for the orders he gives than the people who take the orders, wouldn’t you?
MikeD: holding the current Occupant, 1600 Pa Ave accountable would mean admitting electing him was a mistake in the first place. Don’t hold your breath waiting.
And yet, if it had been a Republitard who had given the drone attack orders, think of the noise. . . .
Teh stoopid runs deep with these, it does.
MikeD, I keep telling everyone this – you are using common sense here and those types will not stand for that!
How dare you point out that it’s their guy that’s doing all this!! Everyone knows that this is Bush’s fault, blah, blah…
“How can I bring peace to the world if George Bush still commands the military?!”
mumble…rustle…mumble (“I am commander in chief? Really? will shit!”)…mumble…
“Okay! I may be commander in chief and they may be following my orders but it is still Bush’s fault!”
Don’t confuse the issue with facts Mike.
It’s easy for them to dispence this free advice when it is not them that will suffer the consequences of disobeying a lawfull order.
AND I agree, its their guy that pushed this type of warfare, but they cant admit they were wrong.
When there is fighting in American streets and Americans are affraid to go to the store due to a fear of attack, the liberals will be looking for #1 a conservative to blame and #2 someone to protect them because our military has been cut to an ineffectual fighting force but is a picture perfect example of social engineering. Do you think they’ll be proud of their accomplishments then.
Now that I think about, they’re right.
A couple dozen B52s dropping ordinance does a lot more than some little ole drone with a couple of Hellfires.
After a bombing run with the BUFFs, you won’t be able to determine who the body parts belong to.
See – that was easy.
Maybe if you stop calling them “drones” I’ll take you seriously.
…Maybe not.
