Barry Hussein strikes without congressional approval vs Trump’s.

[dblack]

Look you stupid racist fuck, Trump has increased the rate of drone strikes & is killing far more civilians with them.

You assfucks need to get a fucking education.

Under Donald Trump, drone strikes far exceed Obama's numbers

Your token negro killed over 300 innocent civilians and bragged about it. Most likely becaus Machelle never takes the boot off his throat. Your token negro, the half black guy you voted for in hopes of getting cried with your black friends got his jollies killing woman and children and you support it. you, and dumb sheep like you never questioned his personal kill list or what he dubbed "the disposition matrix". It's stupid lemmings like you that got us the govrenment we have now. Now stop being emotional. I swear you are like a tween gal on the rag.

OH SHUT THE FUCK UP, you blithering Breitbart parrot.

You shut the fuck up. You just can't get over the rack that your hero Barry killed woman and children and bragged about it. Deal with it.

When did Obama brag about killing women & children.

Obama worked to keep civilian casualties to a minimum. They tracked the number killed.

Your fat assed orange buddy told the military to quit tracking them.

If we are to use drones, there will be civilian casualties. Obama cared & tried to reduce them. Trump declared them irrelevant.

Posted a link. You love a woman killing presidant. I'll take a pussy grabber over a woman/child killer any day.

Huh... those the only two choices??

It's only an issue because Trump don't have a cool name for droning bad guys. Token negro called it "the disposition matrix". All trump has to do is call it something cool and then all will be well.

Token negro?
Wonder where that came from?

Urban Dictionary: Token Negro

Token Negro
That one negro in TV shows when everyone else is white, and has to be there for political correct reasons.
Fifty percent of the time, this token negro has a trophy white wife, usually a blonde.
No one really likes the token negro as he is falsely described as intelligent, easy going, and the peacemaker. As if to say that whites are bad and blacks are the children of God.
Also has a bland personality.
2. Token Negro, The kind who tokes his weed.
That Dr. Quinn from SeaLab 2021.

That damn token negro gets the blonde and saves the day. That's about as likely as cats given birth to puppies.
The saving the day part. Stupid white chicks dig black man.
2. That token negro be sniffing the weed all day long


That sums Bammer up nicely. All he is is a guy white people can say they voted for to prove they are okay with black men. Other then being half black, Bammer is an empty suit.

Fuck you you racist POS.

I guess if a black man gains any office or such it is because he is a token.

In have news you racist fuck, Obama if far far far better educated than Trump,. Had far far far more experience in government than Trump.

Nah, God destroys Iran by Fire, Giant Hailstones, Brimstone, Plague and Insanity in a single night. Ezekiel 38 BSB

Let's also not forget about what Obama, Biden and Clinton did in Libya

Remember when Gadaffi blew up a commercial jet and splattered all those Americans across the Lockerbie landscape.

ISIS formed during the Iraq war while Bush was in office.

Remember when you criticized Reagan for going after Qadaffi?

All you have are lies and lying. I have always criticized Reagan for his weak response to Lockerbie.

Did you know Nancy Pelosi is a near Idiot? She is going Senile and her IQ barely Cracks 100.

I have got to give the crooked witch a hand for staying in the game this long.

You know who is smarter than her? Reagan IQ 139 & Trump IQ 140.

Dumbo Nancy is not going to win her little game and stuttering dummy Joe Biden is never going to be President, and Donald J. Trump has outsmarted her and all The DemNazis for 3 straight years every single day.

BTW, Hillary Clinton was a dummy too,and that is why she was corrupt, because she had to cheat to stay in the game with people smarter than her. Even Bill Clinton was a Genius compared to Clinton.

So a near idiot is outsmarting Trump?

If I gave you a pop quiz on recent current events, I bet you’d do pretty well, thanks to a 24-hour cable news cycle, late night talk shows, social media and popular culture.

You undoubtedly know that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle had their first child this week. You can likely go into some detail about the Mueller report. You probably have an opinion of Attorney General William Barr.

OPINION

But what would you say if I asked you the following multiple choice question?

When it comes to President Obama’s drone wars, President Trump has:

A. Ended them

B. Continued them

C. Escalated them

You’re forgiven for not knowing the answer. It’s C. This administration has not only surpassed the previous one’s drone strike volume overseas, it has made the drone wars even more secretive, if that’s possible.

We can cobble together some reporting on the numbers, but finding exact figures on drone strikes in the Trump administration is difficult. More on that in a minute.

According to a 2018 report in The Daily Beast, Obama launched 186 drone strikes in Yemen, Somalia and Pakistan during his first two years in office. In Trump’s first two years, he launched 238.

The Trump administration has carried out 176 strikes in Yemen in just two years, compared with 154 there during all eight years of Obama’s tenure, according to a count by The Associated Press and the Bureau of Investigative Journalism.

Experts also say drone strikes under President Trump have surged in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria.

And, as was the case during Obama’s presidency, these strikes have resulted in untold numbers of civilian casualties. According to the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan, U.S. drone strikes in Afghanistan killed more than 150 civilians in the first nine months of 2018.

Amnesty International reports drones have killed at least 14 civilians in Somalia since 2017.

As of January of this year, U.S. drone strikes fighting ISIS in Iraq and Syria have killed at least 1,257 civilians, according to the Pentagon, and a monitoring group, Airwars, estimates the number to be as great as 7,500.

That you might not be aware of what should be a startling and deeply troubling escalation in unaccountable remote-control warfare by the U.S. is both by design and default.

For one, the Obama administration paved the way for popularizing and normalizing drone wars, which also included the extrajudicial killing of U.S. citizens, first by hiding it, then by begrudgingly acknowledging it, and then by pretending to meaningfully constrain it.

Obama eventually put in place arcane requirements to issue public reports on civilian death tolls (but just in certain military theaters), to limit targets to high-level militants (again, in certain battlefields), and require interagency approval (also only for certain targets).

Trump has peeled back all of those requirements because, well, he can. We now know more than we did about U.S. drone wars when Obama first took office, but less than when he left.

You can also blame cowardly, partisan politics for hearing little from lawmakers about these escalations. Republicans, of course, no longer criticize these sorts of things — even if they subscribe to Trump’s Obama-rebuking, “America First” isolationism. And Democrats who might take issue with unaccountable wars and civilian deaths know to do so they’d have to acknowledge Obama’s role in the mess, and so …Trump’s tax returns it is.

You can’t, however, blame the media for this one. Refreshingly, many mainstream outlets have been reporting on this escalation for months if not years. From Foreign Policy to The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal to Fox News, The Washington Post to CNN, the issue is getting coverage. Whether Americans care or not is another story.

De-escalating our involvement — even shadow or unmanned — in overseas conflicts was something that many Trump critics and supporters were rug, especially abroad. One CBC headline from 2016 read, “Drone King Barack Obama will not be missed.” Another, from The Guardian: “At least President Trump would ground the drones.”

It was all wishful thinking.

Obama eventually put in place arcane requirements to issue public reports on civilian death tolls (but just in certain military theaters), to limit targets to high-level militants (again, in certain battlefields), and require interagency approval (also only for certain targets).

Trump has peeled back all of those requirements because, well, he can. We now know more than we did about U.S. drone wars when Obama first took office, but less than when he left.

You can also blame cowardly, partisan politics for hearing little from lawmakers about these escalations. Republicans, of course, no longer criticize these sorts of things — even if they subscribe to Trump’s Obama-rebuking, “America First” isolationism. And Democrats who might take issue with unaccountable wars and civilian deaths know to do so they’d have to acknowledge Obama’s role in the mess, and so …Trump’s tax returns it is.

You can’t, however, blame the media for this one. Refreshingly, many mainstream outlets have been reporting on this escalation for months if not years. From Foreign Policy to The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal to Fox News, The Washington Post to CNN, the issue is getting coverage. Whether Americans care or not is another story.

De-escalating our involvement — even shadow or unmanned — in overseas conflicts was something that many Trump critics and supporters were rug, especially abroad. One CBC headline from 2016 read, “Drone King Barack Obama will not be missed.” Another, from The Guardian: “At least President Trump would ground the drones.”

It was all wishful thinking.

The big difference is Trump attacks Terrorists, Obama hit hospitals and civilians.


Oops!

Trump's civilian death count was so high, he ordered the military to quit counting them.

Yes Obama did do that during his illegal wars that you supported!

Under Donald Trump, drone strikes far exceed Obama's numbers

If I gave you a pop quiz on recent current events, I bet you’d do pretty well, thanks to a 24-hour cable news cycle, late night talk shows, social media and popular culture.

You undoubtedly know that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle had their first child this week. You can likely go into some detail about the Mueller report. You probably have an opinion of Attorney General William Barr.

OPINION

But what would you say if I asked you the following multiple choice question?

When it comes to President Obama’s drone wars, President Trump has:

A. Ended them

B. Continued them

C. Escalated them

You’re forgiven for not knowing the answer. It’s C. This administration has not only surpassed the previous one’s drone strike volume overseas, it has made the drone wars even more secretive, if that’s possible.

We can cobble together some reporting on the numbers, but finding exact figures on drone strikes in the Trump administration is difficult. More on that in a minute.

According to a 2018 report in The Daily Beast, Obama launched 186 drone strikes in Yemen, Somalia and Pakistan during his first two years in office. In Trump’s first two years, he launched 238.

The Trump administration has carried out 176 strikes in Yemen in just two years, compared with 154 there during all eight years of Obama’s tenure, according to a count by The Associated Press and the Bureau of Investigative Journalism.

Experts also say drone strikes under President Trump have surged in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria.

And, as was the case during Obama’s presidency, these strikes have resulted in untold numbers of civilian casualties. According to the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan, U.S. drone strikes in Afghanistan killed more than 150 civilians in the first nine months of 2018.

Amnesty International reports drones have killed at least 14 civilians in Somalia since 2017.

As of January of this year, U.S. drone strikes fighting ISIS in Iraq and Syria have killed at least 1,257 civilians, according to the Pentagon, and a monitoring group, Airwars, estimates the number to be as great as 7,500.
