    Of course the Predators would not be capable of dropping bombs, or more likely, of launching missiles. It’s the re-engineered models manufactured later someplace else that would do that. Lately, Uncle Sap is always there, sticking his finger in his eye, it seems.

    They don’t need UAVs for weapons platforms. All they want the UAVs for is to determine where the “targets” (Israelis) are so they can hit them!

    If Obama puts the U.S. on the wrong side of this mess he may get introduced to real ‘hope and change’, French Revolution style. 🙁
