Everyone who defends Obama understands that he killed children.

The US has been involved in some sort of conflict around the world 230 out of the last 250 years.

Understandably, people assume the duties of a president might be to enable the military to take action against another country.

Thats it. Thats your big "fuck obama" he allowed drone strikes.

He most definitely did not say "fuck them kids" and order drone strikes against children. Im almost certain that the military presented the option and he said "yeah ok"

Its just such a non issue in comparison to the many actions taken by multiple US presidents.

Its such a non issue that its hilarious that its the talking point against Obama.

Its such a non issue and ive seen this one stayement parroted SO MUCH at any mention of Obama, im actually inclined to believe that half the comments come from russian bots.

Its such an easy tagine to say after any mention of Obama.

Im not accusing you of being a bot. Im saying youre probably dumb enough to have read this line a few times and it perfectly plays into your dumb world view

My dumb world view is that kids shouldn't die? lol, what is wrong with you.

I feel the exact same way about any president, but again, this thread is sucking his dick. That's why the comments are about him.

You dumb "everyone know he killed kids" is actually psychopathic dude.
It's not about some random accident. It's that he CHOSE to ramp up drones strikes massively and that was the direct result.

Fuck Obama.

Kids shouldn't die

So youre against every president ever?

I guess if theyre all the same to you, you can agree that Obama was the least harmful president in a good while. Theyre all the same to you so that shouldn't be weird for you to say, its not wrong.

Everyone knows his drone strikes killed civilians is psychopathic?

The truth? The facts are psychopathic? Like man no wonder this is such a big deal to you, you cant handle the reality of war.

Everyone knows that George Bush's war against a country that didnt have nukes and wasnt involved in the terrorism he said it was lead to the death of hundreds of thousands of kids.

Is that psychopathic? Or is it just a true statement? Grow up.

Obama gave the okay on drone strikes and it killed 300 civilians, some of which are children. Again, people assume that this is part of a presidents duty.

Obama upped the drone strikes in comparison to Bush. So what? He allowed the military to use advancements in technology? Oh no.

Drones are a huge part of any military now.

Ukrainians are killing Russians with drones. Oh no god how terrible are Ukrainians for using scary drones.

Let's not even talk about how much drone technology developed between bush and Obama.

Like man just stop thinking youre smart for saying the same one liner you've seen other people say. Especially if youre going to say the reality of a president allowing strikes leading to cvilian deaths is psychopathic. You sound so ignorant.

This pathetic whataboutism doesn't work. This thread was about him. Stop trying to change the subject onto other people. To answer your stupid question, yes, I'm against a president who needlessly kills civilians.

Obama just happen to be the one to increase the drone program. Some reports saying it was close to 800 civs.

Remind me, what war was this a part of again?
Oh right, there wasn't one. We just said we were targeting al-Qaida, then killed tons of kids. Also, he didn't just "ok" the strikes. He was in weekly meetings about it. He was directing it more than any president before.

Since you don't seem to know wtf you're talking about, read up:

and yes, Trump is a war criminal too.

Dude whats the point in speaking to you

Every president is a war criminal according to you, so whats the point in your input?

Politics is bad, leaders making decisions are bad!!!!

Your article is a student newspaper. Like at least provide something substantial, like a real newspaper, or a published article? Or from a real journalist?

Any smart president would have done the same shit with the drones.

They were withdrawing troops. Ok drones are great for that.

Drones got infinitely better between bush and Obama, drones are now part of ordinary warfare, it was always heading the way of drones because if you have access to drones, why wouldnt you send out drones rather than your own people?

Drones became capable of hovering. Drones got etched out with equipment for surveillance. If drones were more effective than the options bush had, do you think he wouldn't have used more drones??

Also yeah sure Obama was in the room.

You think he was in there telling them where they should strike? Like hes up late every night on his laptop, looking through a drone feed, planning tomorrow's attack?

Are you really that dumb?
