I'd rather have neither. I'm just saying some isolated metric doesn't give the full picture.
I think it paints a strong picture if you think bombing/striking/whatever other countries is wrong.
Sounds like you were saying getting drone striked is probably better, but English is not my native language so you are probably right
You'll end up pink mist either way, but a drone strike can be targeted more precisely, so it's likely to cause far fewer innocent casualties.
A drone strike more precisely targeted than a guy going in? OK interesting. Probably the reason civilian casualties are so low
If I had a gun to my head and was forced to choose whether a ground/army invasion is better than the drone strike, I would choose the latter.
However, I'd prefer neither happen.
Why do you want to die fast and give your life to the enemy like a gift? What is this, I american't anymore
