YES OBAMA is a terrorist and here is more proof to that fact...

Apparently new research out of NYU and Stanford have revealed that our CIA is purposely KILLING first responders to sites where they have droned "terrorists". As you Americans eat your Mcdonalds and watch your shytty reality shows, innocent civilians are getting droned, as well as any first responders that try to help the vicitms. Another awesome development on Obama's War on terror....:scusthov:

Drone 'Double Tap' Targets First Responders - Business Insider

New research from the NYU School of Law and Stanford Law School details how U.S. drones employ a tactic, known as the "double tap," that is considered to be a terrorist act by the U.S. government.
The double tap is when a targeted strike site is hit multiple times by hellfire missiles in relatively quick succession, meaning that the second missile often strikes first responders.
A 2007 report by the Homeland Security Institute called the double tap a "favorite tactic of Hamas" and the FBI considers it a tactic employed by terrorists.
The new report, Living Under Drones, provides first-hand accounts of its devastating effect on rescuers and humanitarian workers.
Here's one of those accounts:
The lone survivor of the Obama administration’s first strike in North Waziristan, Faheem Qureshi, stated that “sually, when a drone strikes and people die, nobody comes near the bodies for half an hour because they fear another missile will strike.” He believes that he would likely not have survived if he had not managed to walk out of the smoking rubble of his hujra on his own, because his neighbors would have waited too long in coming to rescue him.
The report concludes that double taps by U.S. drones raises "crucial moral and legal concerns. Not only does the practice put into question the extent to which secondary strikes comply with international humanitarian law’s basic rules ... but it also potentially violates specific legal protections for medical and humanitarian personnel, and for the wounded. As international law experts have noted, intentional strikes on first responders may constitute war crimes."
The report cites Pentagon Data to note that the Air Force may have began firing two missiles to "covertly compensate for" the lack of accuracy of Hellfire missiles, meaning that the missiles are "at most only 50% reliable, which is not how this system has been described to Congress."

Meanwhile, the actual kill rate of supposed "high ranking" Al-qaida militants is at a whopping 2%! And you nikkas wonder why they hate us...:smh:

It gets zero airtime because the party, (the democrats) that would be going anti war crazy, find it disloyal to second guess the POTUS

Sounds like a conspiracy/smear to me

It's from nyu research though.

My first thought was conspiracy but it does raise a moral dilemma. Why are first responders helping al Queda members though. I can understand if the CIA feels that they are other Al Queda members

NYU is great and all but still honestly..

Of course it poses a slight moral issue.


This is a war though after all.


I don't know what the policy is but I would imagine we don't just use drones on anyone. Cost/Intel that's literally tens of millions of dollars when you take into play all the pieces.


When Al Qaeda and other extremist groups come into play I think we need to use an iron fist. The Taliban or local groups we can try to work into a government in the future so they should be dealt with differently unless they are known explosives experts or people targeting civilians.


That's my 2 cents/

how about because 98% of the people killed by these "surgical drone strikes" are just hapless innocents caught between the cross fire on this bullshyt war on terror?

Its so sickening thinking about the people constantly being terrorized buy these fukking drones. And people have the nerve to get mad at Lupe when he calls out the president on this bullshyt.

@Hiphoplives4eva

Oh word b? You're going to swear at me and call me a fakkit?

You must really be a little sissy.


Nah I would deserve it. It's called personal responsibility? Have you ever heard of personal responsibility? Why don't you google personal responsibility real quick and let that settle in. Alright?
