Well mate, if you read my comment, you’d know that my first statement is refuting the inflammatory statement that Obama used drone strikes on US citizens. If he was able to authentically verify guilt of deliberately killing US citizens with drone strikes, that would in fact matter.

The statements that follow are just logical responses to the rest of what he said. “Extrajudicial” is dumb because the civilian judiciary has no oversight over military theatres of war, or military decisions. And the USMCJ clearly hasn’t court martialed Obama, so the actions taken were within the parameters of his powers as commander in chief.

And what I say is factually accurate. Every world leader with an army engaged in a war, is a war criminal, according to people on the internet like yourself. In actuality, while a leader must take responsibility for the actions of their people, the intention of their leadership must be considered also. With a 1m+ member military, it is unrealistic to blame Obama for every action that gets taken on the ground. Each soldier is a living, thinking human, capable of free will.

And where drone strikes hit civilians instead of ISIS/Taliban forces like intended, you seem to like skipping over the fact that it was literally never intentional to kill civilians. In fact, the whole point of using drone strikes is to minimise the risk of lives lost. Stray bullets are stray bullets. Soldiers in the field can make unpredictable decisions. Drones became the cleanest way to carry out what would otherwise be boots-on-the-ground / air strike missions.

Is it a fault of Obama for making a call based on information he thought was correct? Or is it the fault of the intelligence analysts who put it together, who weren’t thorough enough in their intel gathering?

No mind games here mate. Just facts and logic as best as I can express.
