cease drone attacks in areas where there is a possibility of civilian casualty

Created by S.B. on November 02, 2014

Drone attacks in the Middle East are out of control, and American citizens are often kept in the dark about them. Drone attacks shape international views of America in many parts of the world, yet we rarely hear about them.

For the US government to approve drone attacks overseas, they require proof of an iminent threat, but an iminent threat is defined to "not require...clear evidence that a specific attack on U.S. persons and interests will take place in the immediate future."

In Yemen and Pakistan, children and adults alike live in fear created by our war on terror. No one deserves to live this fear.
