The Obama Administration and Predator Drones

Hosted by

CIA operators use unmanned drones to kill suspected terrorists thousands of miles away, a practice that has stirred heated debate about international law and human rights. Their use in Afghanistan, Pakistan and other places is not officially acknowledged by the Pentagon. A UN report says President Obama is expanding the practice in possible violation of international laws that protect human rights, especially when innocent civilians become "collateral damage."
