Subject: RE: BS: Obama celebrates win, bombs Yeman
Not to jump on anyone but I approve of the use of drones in asymmetrical warfare. They use bombs either in cars, people's coats or planted in the road. We use drones. Both sides are minimizing losses to their own side and maximizing the damage to the enemy.

There was a report today that an Iranian fighter had fired on a recon drone over the Arabian Gulf [international waters] and missed. Does this mean that the US will soon be drawn into a shooting airwar with Iran?
