Release more information on the decision making process that leads to targeted drone strikes

Created by M.B. on February 05, 2013

As one of the many Obama supporters who continued to support him in 2012, despite the unfulfilled promises made in 2008, it is time for the President to come forward and elaborate on his administration's policy of launching drone strikes in sovereign nations against unproven "enemies".

This is not NECESSARILY an appeal to end all drone strikes, but after the justice department memo obtained by NBC news regarding the legal reasoning for these strikes was published, the American people AT LEAST deserve to know how often these attacks happen, and how individuals are targeted.

Drone Strikes may be a necessary evil, but if the President will not facilitate a national dialogue about these tactics, he should face the same backlash the Bush administration faced for torture.
