WSJ: U.S. Pursues Sale of Armed Drones


Dec 15, 2011 p. A1

"The Obama administration has been quietly pushing to sell armed drones to key allies, but has run into resistance from U.S. lawmakers concerned about the proliferation of technology and know-how..."

Majia here: There have been quite a few articles about how drones are being used in the US by domestic "law enforcement." Civil libertarians have rather obvious concerns.

 
The migraine inside my head today worsens as I read about Obama's efforts to proliferate drones throughout the world. What is good for the defense industry is clearly not good for citizens everywhere...
