Why did a US drone kill his mother ???

This is a question we ALL should be asking:

Please tell me, Mr President, why a US drone assassinated my mother*

No one ever asked us who was killed or injured that day. Not the United States or my own government. Nobody has come to investigate nor has anyone been held accountable. Quite simply, nobody seems to care.


I care, though. And so does my family and my community. We want to understand why a 67-year-old grandmother posed a threat to one of the most powerful countries in the world. We want to understand how nine children, some playing in the field, some just returned from school, could possibly have threatened the safety of those living a continent and an ocean away.


Most importantly, we want to understand why President Obama [ad-Dajjal], when asked whom drones are killing, says they are killing terrorists. My mother was not a terrorist. My children are not terrorists. Nobody in our family is a terrorist.


These drone attacks are MURDER. Where in the US Constitution are Obama ad-Dajjal and John Brennan authorized to commit murder? Why aren't WE holding THEM accountable? Is it because WE condone these murders?


As a partial answer to why this woman was murdered, consider a statement from America's "Indian Wars":


Damn any man who sympathizes with Indians! ... I have come to kill Indians, and believe it is right and honorable to use any means under God's heaven to kill Indians. ... Kill and scalp all, big and little; nits make lice.

Col. John Milton Chivington

This lady was a midwife. Her death cripples the ability of her village to safely birth future generations. That's the way America wages war: "nits make lice" = kill them all = ours are wars of extermination. Ours are illegal wars or, as Jeremy Scahill dubbed them, DIRTY WARS. The dirtier the better. The more lies we have to tell, the happier we seem to be, wallowing in the oceans of blood of our delusional fantasies, this time about "defeating terrorism" by murdering an unarmed grandmother.


By the way, John Chivington was a Methodist preacher. In my view, however, he was no Christian. And neither are any of America's drone murderers.


*OK, it's not a question. But you get the picture.
