#3 If we want to limit civilian casualties, why isn't the ISIS territory buzzing with drones looking to take out specific targets?

#5 ..cause the AF insists only pilots run drones? There are only so many available who are not working their careers up through the fighter mafia ranks.

#7 Yup. That's the reason there haven't been any ARCLIGHT strikes in the Muddled East, even though the Vietnam War proved how effective they are in destroying the will of an enemy to fight. One ARCLIGHT strike over Raqqa or Mosul would have more effect than all the precision strikes since 9/11. Our "leadership" isn't just incompetent, it's on the other side.

#11 The Enemy = "Threat" is ALWAYS WATCHING, STUDYING, ANALYZING, + ALTERING HIS METHODS AS NEEDED.
