Re: Spend the money on drones
Unfortunately, it is likely that the move to drones will increase war.
The logic goes: 1) drones/autonomous fighting vehicles etc will not risk our soldiers lives.
2) Soldiers will therefore die less often
3) Their grieving relatives will not appear on news programmes to embarrass the government
4) There will be less political pressure to avoid war...
Obvious icon is obvious.
