From the article;

“...quietly process targets.”

Ya gotta love the verbiage.

Don’t let the Democrats find out. They’ll make drones illegal.

Good article.

If you go to the link, on the right hand side is the clickable link "Video Fix: Bulletproof Glass vs. RPG".

I highly recommend viewing it; lots of slo-mo RPG action.

Better watch out the way things have been going on over there it will not be long before the drone operators are charged with war crimes for killing innocent civilians stopping along side the road. Sarc

There are people that do not want us to win against terrorism.
