what's there to dispute? drone strikes violate a country's sovereignty, there is no congressional approval for these drone strikes either, many civilians are caught in these drone strikes (in turn inciting more anger towards the US)..and much of congress is left in the dark about these drone strikes...it's one of the worst things that the obama administration have been doing.

also some of these drone strikes have targeted/killed US citizens, which further violates constitutional rights...

This statement, is false as can be.

The only dispute with respect to the 'legality' stems from the refusal of the US to abide by international legal conventions.

That's one thing.

But, what the hell are you talking about? Disputed exactly along partisan lines?

You make no sense.

A Democratic president has stepped up the drone warfare.

As I stated before, the right agrees with it, no criticism coming from them.

The 'left' doesn't criticize, because Obama has a 'D' in front of his name.

I don't get you, Squeal. Why is it that you are so invested in defense of the established power? You seem like a genuine guy, but you also are often illogical. Really, I can understand logic in most things. I have a problem with, but can nevertheless understand clearly, the arguments that the drone warfare is right, and just. Maybe I am wrong to have a problem with it, but I maintain this position, based on my personal sense of rightness and justness.

However, your statement like that it is disputed on "partisan lines" is purely disingenuous. There is no basis in facts for such a statement. You are slipping up, and exposing yourself as the hack that you really are, by producing such a false and irrational statement.

It is known that the US strikes a target multiple times, as policy. They strike once. Then, when people come to help, they strike again.

This is established. Look it up if you don't believe me. It is true.
