My problem with this perspective is that you&#x27;re suggesting we go out of our way to put more people (US soldiers) in danger.<p>If we (the US, or the military, or what have you) determine that a certain military act is justified, I think the approach should be to do it in a way to minimizes the danger as much as possible.<p>I can&#x27;t imagine going to a soldier (who might be your son) and saying, &quot;Hey, so, we could do this with a drone, but we&#x27;d prefer instead to put your life on the line.&quot;
