    Fewer civilian casualties is literally the reason the US started using drone strikes instead of boots on the ground.

      Dude. They started using drones because there’s no congressional hearing when a drone is shot down in some random African country. But you lose one green beret and there’s years of hearings. That’s why we went to drones.

        No. We used drones in an active warzone first
