FactCheck: US Presidential Debate Did Not Discuss Drone Warfare

I don't care which candidate you are for, whether you are an optimist or a pessimist, a liberal, undecided, or a conservative.  You did not get one iota of information or discussion about the current state of drone warfare around the world.

The fact is that the US is leading the drone warfare with it's superior military might, but the rest of the world will catch up, since American and Israeli military industrial corporations are selling equipment and technology all over the world.  How long before we reach a state at which we say it is a Terminator Planet?

You don't have to wait until 2025 to learn more, you can pick up a bookhttp://www.tomdispatch.com/books/ now and read more about it.  You can read Wired magazine, or Slate, or watch RT, or even read about it in the New York Times if you are really paying attention.

But you won't hear about it much on mass media.  That's because our media is owned by profit making corporations that benefit from sensational garbage and warmongering.

And you won't hear about it in the presidential debates either. Either candidate will continue the unmanned warfare since it frees them from having to explain the body bags of American soldiers.

And you will likely keep paying your taxes to fund the war.  Ignorance is bliss, isn't it?
