Time to allow 13 year old boys in the military. They would pay the government to allow them to sit behind a terminal and control a Predator drone. Might need some Marines nearby to drag them away for some sleep every 18 hours or so however.

Now THAT is some new very dangerous thinking!

It may come to this in the future, that our best fighters are the video game players. But currently, it's the B-52 and F-18 drivers who own the day, along with the brave targeting specialists on the ground.

Terrorists will rue the day that we can put our game players up front. For now, we have to Find them and Fight them!

Let's Roll!

And if the kids had to put quarters in the machine, the war would pay for itself.
