This isn’t a well reasoned position at all. You can’t summarily declare that all wars or actions taken by the military are morally equivalent to an ethnoreligios genocide.

Is there another use for these drones right now? Because all I've seen is pretty close to "ethnoreligious genocide". Many people straightforwardly advocate for it.

Can you really pretend that you're developing "neutral" weapons technology in this climate?

Appealing to mindless outrage is not a rational argument. Please list all of the genocides that the USA’s drone program has participated in.

If anything, it seems this google technology would reduce the number of civilian casualties.
