No, it is just another way to get to the enemy. We no longer have to meet in single combat to kill our enemies. We no longer have to deal with invasions and armies fighting each other either, unless we want to occupy their lands. Send a drone, kill the target with little to no "collateral damage" and save lives. IMHO.

That's like saying to the first person who threw a spear, "Don't you think spear attacks are cowardice? And...to the first person who used a sling. To the first person who used a bow and arrow. To the first person who used a crossbow. To the first person who used a rifle. Etc. You get the idea. It's not cowardice. It's technology that provides the possesser with more ability to attack the desired target...from a greater distance, and/or granting some other military advantage(s).

11stevo73 Would you shoot someone in the back? Or King hit them when they aren't lookiong? -
www.bible-reviews.com I don't know what "king hit" means. If my life or the life of my fellows depended on it I would shoot someone in the back. Otherwise: no.

11stevo73 A king hit would be to Hit someone in the head when they aren't looking or hit them in the back of the head.

The object of fighting a war is to win. Other than humanitarian rules (like the Geneva Conventions), opponents generally use whatever weapons are at their disposal. "Cowardice"? Drone attacks are no more "cowardice" than dropping atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki from an altitude of 30,000 feet. They couldn't face their enemy, either.

Drones have the same effect as a guided missile with a smaller payload.

Drones and cyber attacks will be the war weapons in the future. Conventional warfare is out.

People in the 2020's - "Drone attacks are a sign of cowardice, face us!" People in the 1990's - "Smart bombs are a sign of cowardice!" People in the 1970's - "Air strikes are a sign of cowardice!" People in the 1960's - "Missile strikes are a sign of cowardice!" People in the 1910's - "Come out of the trenches and face us!" People in the 1800's - "Guerilla warfare is a sign of cowardice!" People in the 1600's - "Only wimps use guns, stab me like a real man!" People in 500 BC - "Iron swords are for cowards, use bronze like the good old days!" People in 10000 BC - "No fair, you hit me with a rock, come here and punch me like a real man!" The method of violence always changes, so maybe the true sign of cowardice is the lack of reluctance to resort to violence in general.

Do you think its ok supplying the Ukraine with drones so they can aim terrorist attacks at Moscow? -

It's okay, yes. What's the standard to measure this against? The Swiss were commended for remaining neutral in WWII, but don't think, even for one second, that they weren't selling arms and munitions to both sides, in order to profit. Also don't make the mistake of thinking that this entire war is NOT about a struggle between eastern and western blocs. Russia (Putin in particular) courted with the west to try to fit in, then saw that it was an old boys club and it was stupid, and felt insulted that he wasn't treated as an equal, despite ruling over one of the most powerful nations in the world. So, ultimately, selling drones to Ukraine is pretty much expected. Ukraine attacking Moscow is pretty much expected. Everyone is playing the roles they are "supposed to," even though this whole thing is stupid. I think that everyone involved knows that, if they stop playing along, it'll make things just that much worse for them, unless if everyone stops playing along, which will never happen, because people magically become stupid in large groups. -

Do you want a war with Russia keep giving Ukraine terrorist weapons what do you think is going to happen? Who will you blame? What did we learn from world war 2 ? Scumbags use war to get countrys into debt so they can steal them is what happens wake up. No one in my country was any better off after any war grandpa might of liked tossing off he went to war and got us into debt for the next 60 years. -

I, personally, don't want anyone to be at war. I don't, personally, want anyone to be selling weapons to any unstable government. I, personally, don't want my nation to get involved in any foreign conflicts. I think we learned a lot from WW2, but the people who were adults back then are dying now of old age and we are forgetting the lessons we learned. I'm sure you already know this, but every place is run by scumbags.

No, drones are not a *magic bullet* that win wars. They just do a better job in protecting civilians because they provide real-time pictures of situations as they develop on the ground. Soldiers can act more quickly and more decisively.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-66368016 Would you say that is terrorism? Or is it all right since Ukraine did it? -

Any military capabilities and forces that pose a threat to society is terrorism. Although you can't blame the most advanced countries who get the advantage using drones.
