Dear Dick --
On Thursday President Obama spoke before the American people giving a powerful and eloquent speech on the use of drones. Unfortunately the speech leaves many of the basic assumptions of a policy based on trying to kill our way to safety still in place. Help us change that.

Heckler-In-Chief:
CodePink’s Medea Benjamin
By Ed Rampell, May 24, 2013
CodePink
co-founder Medea Benjamin is at it again.
On
Thursday, she repeatedly interrupted and even got into a back-and-forth
exchange with President Obama, during his speech at the National
Defense University
in Washington , D.C.
Benjamin,
a veteran antiwar activist who is about five feet tall, has made a career of
disrupting high ranking officials and forcing them to confront uncomfortable
truths.
The
author of Drone Warfare,
Killing by Remote Control, Benjamin is particularly concerned about of the U.S.
Because
drone warfare is so secretive it’s difficult to tally the casualties.
In
February Senator Lindsay Graham estimated that there have been 4,700
fatalities.
According
to the London-based Bureau for Investigative Journalism up to 1,727 people have
been injured and up to 4,379 people have been killed by U.S. drone strikes between 2002 and 2013 in Pakistan , Yemen
and Somalia Afghanistan
and Iraq
Of
the dead, up to 209 have been children.

I
caught up with Medea Benjamin on April 10 after she spoke at an Interfaith
Communities United for Justice and Peace luncheon in Holman
United Methodist
Church in Los Angeles
As
Obama said when Benjamin repeatedly interrupted him: “The voice of that woman
is worth paying attention to.”
Q: Tell us about the drone policy.
MEDEA
BENJAMIN: There were
between 46 and 52 drone strikes under the Bush administration. And now there
are over 400 – that’s not counting Afghanistan Afghanistan Pakistan Yemen
Q: How are the subjects of the targeted killings
selected?
Benjamin: They’re supposed to be high-level Al Qaeda
operatives that pose an imminent threat to the U.S.
Q: How much does drone warfare cost?
Benjamin: There are hidden costs, such as hellfire missiles
costing $75,000 each and the requisite personnel, the expenditure is up to $20
million per drone and maybe 800 drones have been bought… It’s not as “cheap” as
it’s put out to be. One predator drone in one day of activity supposedly needs
168 people… to carry out the day’s operations… They crash a lot. So when you
calculate their costs, consider that the Air Force has said about a third of
their drones have crashed.
Q: On February 7 CodePink disrupted the Senate
hearings considering Obama’s nominee to become the CIA Director. Why?
Benjamin: John
Brennan has been the mastermind
of the drone program. He’s the one who’d convene the terror Tuesday meetings at
the White House… He was high up in the CIA during the Bush years, the chief of
staff in the CIA to George Tenet during the years when torture, extraordinary
rendition and indefinite detention were used… I thought it was quite astounding
that he’d even be nominated and I was flabbergasted when so many Democrats got
on board behind him.
Q: While Brennan’s confirmation process was going on,
during the live Academy Awards ceremony Mrs. Obama announced that Argo,
a movie glorifying the CIA, won the Best Picture Oscar. What did you think
about that?
Benjamin: There is a real attempt to sanitize the CIA
killings and to glorify the CIA and to give it a new face. That’s what happened
with Zero Dark Thirty, that’s what happened with Michelle Obama…
When she appeared my jaw dropped; I couldn’t believe it… These were really disgusting propaganda films, glorifying the
role of the CIA… The fact that this was happening while the CIA is in one of
its darkest periods ever in the history of this country -- there have been
several times in our history when the CIA
has gone rogue, and this is one of them… The CIA is absolutely out of
control. The CIA has been on a killing spree… The CIA has become a death squad
and to see these films get so much acclaim at the time when the CIA is in its
rogue killing phase is very disturbing.
Q: What do you think about the fact that the Senate Intelligence Committee’s report on
torture remains classified?
Benjamin: It’s horrible. That information, those 6,000 pages,
should be released to the public. It’s our right as U.S.
citizens to know what our government has done in our name just as I think that
these memos about the U.S.

On the agenda were "kill lists" — names of individuals
whose perceived threat to America 's
security made them targets for assassination by unmanned drone attacks in Pakistan , Yemen ,
and Somalia
The kill lists, scrutinised personally by Obama at the weekly
meetings, were soon expanded to become what US journalist Jeremy Scahill,
author of Dirty Wars, calls a form of "pre-crime" justice where
individuals are considered fair game if they met certain life patterns of
suspected terrorists.
Unidentified individuals, described as "military
aged-males", would be targeted if they were at a certain place at certain
times.
These are considered legitimate targets in "signature
strikes".
How Obama embraced the hawks and the unaccountable and secretive
Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) left behind by the Bush administration
is powerfully documented in Dirty Wars, published in Britain
"One of the enduring legacies of Obama's presidency is how
he has normalised assassination as a central component of what is called America
It has been easier for a Nobel Peace prize winning liberal
Democrat to get away with drone strikes, prosecuting and persecuting
whistleblowers, keeping Congress in the dark, than a Republican hawk, Scahill
suggests.
Congress has not been able, or not wanted, to question the drone
strikes, and polls show a majority in support of them.
"They are seen as a smarter, new way of cleaning up
war", said Scarhill. That encouraged him to call the book, Dirty Wars.
He added: "I believe we are creating more new enemies than
we are killing terrorists...And revenge is as powerful force".
Republicans, meanwhile, have chided Obama calling the drone
strikes as an alternative to transporting and interrogating terror suspects at Guantánamo Bay
Over the past decade, the US
has ordered at least 300 drone strikes in Pakistan ,
Afghanistan , Yemen , Iraq
and Mali
In his eight years in office, Bush ordered about 50 drone
strikes aimed at alleged terrorists. Obama is believed to have ordered nearly
300 in his first term as president.
The belated stirrings of a debate in the US will not be welcomed
by the British government which has already tried to distance itself from the
opposition drone strikes have provoked in Pakistan, Yemen, and elsewhere.
Drones are here to stay.
They are likely to be used more and more against targets in
north, east, and west Africa, and elsewhere. Scahill subtitles his book, The
World is a Battlefield.
Dirty Wars also chronicles in detail the life and death of Anwar
al-Awlaki, an American killed by a drone strike in Yemen
His son, Abdulrahman al-Awlaki, a 16-year-old American boy, was
killed in a drone strike a month later.

Other, equally horrific weapons go
unchallenged. Napalm (invented on the playing fields of Harvard University UK mourn each of their few dead in Iraq or Afghanistan
Enter the
drones. As Medea Benjamin's well-researched book points out, speculation about
the potential of autonomous flying vehicles long predates their actual
construction. But in the modern era we have to thank above all Abraham Karem,
chief designer for the Israeli airforce, who migrated to California
Today, drones range from the tiny
humming-bird sized surveillance devices to the plane-sized Predators and
Reapers carrying Hellfire missiles. "Gorgon Stare" drones can spy on an entire small
city. Miniaturisation promises solar-powered insect-sized drones capable of
staying aloft indefinitely or being steered into buildings to spy or kill.
Drones have spun off from the military and are now used commercially in various
ways, from delivering packages to spraying pesticides. You can buy your own
smartphone-controlled drone from Amazon for as little as $300. There's
no technical reason why they shouldn't in future replace pilots on passenger
planes. And as always, there's an enthusiastic community of DIYers building and
flying their own.
But it is their military use that is the focus
of Benjamin's book. Initially, they were used primarily for
surveillance; by 2003, US drones were logging 1500 hours a month in Iraq ; and by 2010, 20 Predator flights were
providing some 500 hours of video surveillance a day in Afghanistan Afghanistan but also Pakistan ,
an escalation already pioneered by the Israelis in Gaza US
citizen in Yemen
in 2011, or the accidental killing of 20 Pakistani soldiers in Waziristan has not limited their use. A recent
British poll found 54% were in favour of such targeted killing.
That
such extra-judicial killing is illegal is not in doubt – as has recently been
reconfirmed by the UN special rapporteur Ben Emmerson. Obama's
justification is similar to Bush's – that those killed are actively threatening the security of
the US US
air base in the Nevada
Is firing a missile from a drone
morally worse than dropping a 500lb bomb from 10,000ft? Or pressing the button
that launches a cruise missile? Perhaps what is repugnant is the unique
combination of deliberately firing at a specific individual, combined with
distance and the knowledge that you yourself are invulnerable to retaliation.
Time to reprise the ancient Greeks with their contempt for archers. Despite
some loose editing and repetition, Drone Warfare is both a justifiably angry sourcebook
and a call to action for the growing worldwide citizen opposition to the
drones.

Book Review: Terminator
Planet: The First History of Drone Warfare, 2001 – 2050
Nick Turse and Tom Engelhardt, Terminator Planet: The First History of Drone
Warfare, 2001 – 2050. Dispatch Books, 2012. 179 pp
For readers of the
popular website TomDispatch.com, editors Tom Engelhardt and Nick Turse need
little introduction. The weekly ‘Tomgrams’ (or articles) they write and oversee
are a ‘regular antidote to the mainstream media’, and contain opinion and
information on issues ranging from the ‘war on terror’ to the scoured
landscapes of neoliberalism and climate change. Terminator
Planet is the first
book from the pair, and each chapter is composed of entries previously penned
on their website, united by an analysis of the rise of remotely piloted
planes, or drones, and how these technologies are re-wiring the ‘American way
of war’. Often written in pithy, polemical, if not downright scathing language,
the book’s primary accomplishment is its engaging and sobering set of critiques
of our brave new Droneworld. For example, a common trope throughout the book is
a comparison of U.S.
Unfortunately the book has no real structure to it, other than
the chronological order the articles were published. This becomes a real
problem, especially when the book’s unavoidable redundancy starts to creep in.
Nonetheless, Turse and Engelhardt cover the main issues well. While over 50
nations are developing aircraft that can be operated from thousands of miles
away by ‘pilots’ sat in air-conditioned trailers, the U.S. has pioneered the
extrajudicial assassinations that generate so much controversy today. At over
300, the Obama administration has authorized far more strikes than Bush ever
did against people in Pakistan, Yemen and Somalia; firmly entrenching the drone
program as Washington’s favoured counter-terrorist strategy. As of October
2011, the MQ-1 Predator, part of an armada of over 7,500 drones, had flown more
than a million hours in the sky and dropped 703 ‘Hellfire’ missiles. The
geographic reach of this Droneworld is staggering: six countries have felt the
full force of Predators and Reapers in strikes often spearheaded by the CIA: Afghanistan , Iraq ,
Pakistan , Somalia , Yemen ,
and Libya U.S.
The global scale of drone strikes is matched by an equally
expansive ‘galaxy of drone bases’. In one of the stand-out chapters of the entire
book (Chapter 6, ‘America’s Secret Empire of Drone Bases’) Turse—using original
research—lists the 60 or so drone bases that are integral to U.S. military and
CIA drone operations. Outside of the many training facilities within the
continental U.S., the area of focus for these bases, which are often no more
than small, stripped-down airfields called ‘lily pads’, is concentrated in and
around the Middle East and the Horn of Africa, with bases recently constructed
on the island nation of the Seychelles, as well as others in Ethiopia,
Djibouti, and another ‘probably’ in Saudi Arabia. From these locations the CIA
and Special Forces strike against al-Qaeda affiliates in Somalia and Yemen Italy , Turkey , the UAE, Kuwait ,
Qatar , Pakistan , and Uzbekistan
Engelhardt hits his stride in Chapters 9 (‘Offshore Everywhere’)
and 11 (‘Remotely Piloted War’). The first reports on changing U.S. military strategy with an emphasis on
smaller, mobile, technologically advanced units positioned outside of the Middle East . The combination of U.S. Special Forces—which
number 60,000 in some 120 nations—with Predator and Reaper drones is indicative
of a new geopolitical strategy to eliminate ‘whoever’ ‘wherever’, with a small
‘footprint’; as the raid that killed Osama bin Laden in Pakistan illustrated.
‘From lily pads to aircraft carriers, advanced drones to special operations
teams, it’s offshore and into the shadows for U.S.
Two final themes
round out the book. The first is the precedence given to the ‘future’. Modern
drones are still quite basic technologies, and need significant human
involvement. But the future hints towards increased autonomy, intelligence,
high-definition surveillance, and cooperation between drones, as they work
together in ‘swarms’ that resemble groups of angry insects. Future scenarios
for drone use imagined by the military, lifted from theUnmanned Systems Integrated Roadmap, FY 2011-2036, are
used to illustrate the creative brains and possible futures that might be
hatched by DARPA and for-profit companies such as General Atomics. But as
Engelhardt reminds us, futuristic military technologies are never utopian
solutions: from the ‘electronic battlefield’ of Vietnam, to Reagan’s ‘Star
Wars’ defense initiative, to Rumsfeld’s ‘netcentric’ warfare, technology has
been a perennial false prophet, and what’s more, a source of blowback. ‘Since
we are incapable of thinking of ourselves [the U.S.] as either predators or
Predators, no less emotionless Terminators, it becomes impossible for us that
our air ‘war’ on terror is, in reality, a machine for creating what we call
“terrorists”’ (p.69).
The book is not
without its problems. As already mentioned, because Engelhardt and Turse have
left the chapters almost untouched from the online articles, there is an unavoidable
redundancy across the manuscript. Depending on how you look at it, you’ll
either find this repetition a necessary commitment to the original ink, or a
failed opportunity to add detail to their polemics. What makes the book a
success then can also hold it back: Engelhart’s clever barbs are eminently
engaging, but ultimately beg for more analysis, especially in a book with a
title that claims to be the first (modern) history of drone warfare. At its
best though, Terminator Planet, and the website and authors behind
it, remain go-to places for critical commentary on the science-fiction present
we have woken up in.

In the United States, the dominant narrative about

minimal downsides or collateral damage. This narrative is false.
