Drone War Civilian Casualties Including 178 Children

The Drone War continues with barely a mention in the U.S. media despite--since the beginning of Obama's presidency--drone strikes occurring every four days. When the Drone War does make the news, there is no mention of the extensive number of civilian casualties, and much is made of striking high level militants, which only represent 2% of total killed by drones.

Currently, it is estimated that there have been 800 civilian casualties, and of that number, 178  children. That, combined with frightened populations living under constant threat from a distant enemy should be enough to make Americans stand up against these illegal drone wars.
