U.S. MINIATURE FLYING DRONES PROMISE NEW WAY OF KILLING

The Washington Post runs a story today by Rick Weiss on flying drones armed with miniature cameras that look just like dragon flies. People have observed the drones flying above political events and demonstrations, leading to the suspicion that the U.S. government is using them to spy on participants. Bush and Cheney can justify anything in their "war on terror."

Reports Weiss quoting an observer:

""I'd never seen anything like it in my life," the Washington lawyer said. "They were large for dragonflies. I thought, 'Is that mechanical, or is that alive?' "

"That is just one of the questions hovering over a handful of similar sightings at political events in Washington and New York. Some suspect the insectlike drones are high-tech surveillance tools, perhaps deployed by the Department of Homeland Security."

The next thing to expect is that the government will arm these insect-like drones with miniature weapons and bombs. That has been the progression of flying machines since the Wright brothers. Take a new technology of flight and make it an instrument for killing your enemies. Arm the unsophisticated bi-plane with lethal cannon and drop fiery explosive devices on the enemy. What should benefit mankind is turned demonically by government leaders into a new way of killing others.
