How the shooting of a drone into an Pakistan village at suspects, and inadvertently killing women and children and innocent bystanders, isn't going to look good in the court record. It's probably illegal as hell to shoot a drone at any 'non-enemy combatant'. And that kind of action probably won't stand up in the International Court. I wouldn't be at all surprised if Obama is marched off to prison himself for authorizing drone attacks against suspects on foreign soil. In a civilian court in the U.S., it's usually a big deal if you're shot at with a U.S. military drone, BEFORE YOUR TRIAL even begins!!!
