What are the distinguishing differences between a “kamikaze drone” and a “cruise missile”?

For the last decades we’ve fired off quite a few of the latter.

Ukraine isn’t under sanctions, because Ukraine didn’t illegally invade any sovereign countries

When somebody comes up with a better mousetrap, you buy it and use it, then produce it yourself under license.

All of the below foreign-designed weapons were [Bofors 40mm AA gun] or are [the rest] currently in use by the U.S. military, built under license in America.

Reports are that Russia is now mass-producing the Iranian drones. Nothing new under the sun.

I take death very threats seriously.

This is the UkroNazi way.
1. Post a death threat publicly.
2. Somebody else local to the target kills him.
3. “Liquidated” is posted over the target’s face.

You make me laugh, Comrade Travis!

So we’ve learned

When you are paranoid, they may really be out to get you. You never really know

The Iranians getting involved in Ukraine, in support of Russia, has changed the game.

Russia’s Medvedev fumes as Israeli minister calls for weapons to Kyiv

Why is it ok for the USA to give $100,000,000,000 worth of weaponry to the Ukraine, but Russia can’t use Iranian weapons?

Because Russia attacked and illegally invaded Ukraine

Ukraine didn't attack or invade Russia

that's the difference ... see, Russia is the warmonger here

What are the distinguishing differences between a “kamikaze drone” and a “cruise missile”?

Cruise missiles are pre-programmed and autonomous after launch, whereas drones are human operator controlled (until AI eventually takes over and we get Terminator-style hunter-killer bots).

Illegally invaded according to who? Is the United States the sole arbiter of what is a just war? On!y the USA is allowed to invade other countries and perform war? Everything else is illegal unless we approve?

Biden should penalize Iran by sending more pallets of cash...
