The drone documentary that we watched in class held a lot of
weight to it. The psychological impact that the bunkers had on the operators
was astonishing. They were forced to emotionlessly shoot with the drones and
obey orders, despite the possibility of not having an accurate shot on the
target. Because of this problem, there were many innocent civilians that
continued to get killed from the American drones that were in Afghanistan. This
issue really made me wonder—is it worth using these drones with less accuracy
and killing innocent bystanders if it terminates the lives of dangerous people?
I agree with your final question, sure we are taking a lot of military men out of the actual war but we are hurting a lot more innocent people.
