Don't think he really changed anything? Say that to the victims of his and hrc's 3k + drone strikes in northwest Pakistan (with a <10% chance of hitting the intended target)
Or the victims of his OVER 26,000 bombs dropped... in his last year in office alone
not of a fan of him but that argument is invalid. Terrorist hide in civilian facilities to avoid getting hit. Often times civilians aid in hiding some of these terrorist so many drones have little choice.
You don't have any evidence that what I said was "invalid" or even an argument.
I stated a well known fact as to the amount of bombs dropped and the accuracy rate of drone strikes.
As for accuracy I commented only in respect to drones which if you researched would know is due to our poor technology and abuse of power by the pilots themselves.
I am really turned off by how dismissive you were without knowing what you're talking about, since there are reports of pilots firing after people with little to no information whether it is the right person to begin with.
I did not even bring up collateral damage, if you read what I actually wrote it said chance of hitting the intended target, so even if ALL terrorists hid in school, hospitals, etc. if we were aiming at the right people always it would still be a 100% rate of hitting the target.
Other people being killed is incidental to how accurate drones are. I didn't claim 10% of all people killed were terrorists.
The majority of strikes don't kill any terrorists.
I'm asking out of curiosity, since I know basically nothing about this:was he completely aware of the likelihood of the drones hitting the correct location? Isn't there a cabinet member that helps with war-related things or whatever? Why would he willingly allow innocent people to be killed for a small chance that the bad guys will be killed as well?
Obama - Highly OVERRATED ?

If you check around on YouTube there are a couple great interviews with former drone 'pilots' that explain it far better than me.

You dont have this information. I will trust any former pilot more than arguments you make up.
