"What hogwash, they are not unmanned they are remotely piloted, no different from any other weapons platform."

This conjures up the image of a 17 year old kid complete with lollipop hanging out the side of his mouth being summoned to appear before a UN High crimes tribunal.

Bad Dream! Say it isn't so.
