Unfortunately these drone strikes are not nearly as surgical as the
government would have you believe. We are creating far more militants
than we kill.

And far less than troops on the ground. Pick your poison.

I just think the psychological effect of drones is the opposite of
what we want.
We act like there is some kind of Yamamoto out there that will
seriously degrade their capability if we kill him.
The reality is the knowledge is pretty freely disseminated among the
gangs and there is no one single leader or mechanic who is key to the
operation. We only make martyrs. When we take out a bunch of
innocents, it is just a recruiting tool. I suppose we can just kill
them all but there is over a billion of them world wide

That is correct. Having the biggest, baddest military in the world is
not relevant anymore.

Why is Russia spending whatever it can on revitalizing and expanding
it's military?

Why is China investing heavily into an expanded and modern Navy and Air
Force?

Do you know how much they'd have to be spending annually to catch up with
our level of military waste? Do you think either of them envision a
shooting war against the United States?

I think they envision a shooting war with Muslim's!

I think they envision doing what ever the **** they want and not having
to worry a lick about us... or what we think...
