    Hmmmm...destroy the drone and kill the hackers who managed to take control of the USA's spy drone.
    Interesting...to say the least...

    A. Destroying the drone would be futile at this point.
    They've already examined, documented and shared with the Chinese.
    So what would be the point?
    A show of violent capabilities?
    Would that make any sense what-so-ever?

    B. Kill the perpetrators? REALLY???

    IMO...Adults need to develop the capability to actually think before they react.
    Lack of that adult skill is what got the USA into trouble in the first place.
    I'm talking pre-9/11.
    "American Exceptionalism" has caused the US to do a great deal of damage globally, in the name of greed and more greed.
    Isn't it time to turn it down just a notch?
    Adults do things they have to to defend the country.
    Moderates are not republicans

    Most adults seem to know the difference between defending their country and engaging in clearly hostile acts which are anything but.

    From your own sig:

    our foreign operations around the world to maintain our empire is now approaching $1 trillion a year. That's where the money is going and that's where it has to be cut so we can take care of education and medical cares that are needed here in this country.

    How exactly is starting a war over a lost drone "defending our country?"

    Furthermore, according to international law, the drone belongs to Iran. Therefore, not only would we be starting a war, we would have no legal precident to stand on.
