Barack Obama: ‘drone strikes have saved lives’

Subscribe to the Guardian HERE: http://bitly.com/UvkFpD

The US president defends his country’s use of unmanned drones as part of their continued counter-terror policy. Barack Obama says the actions save lives in America and internationally and are legal, referring to federal agreement over the use of force in retaliation to the 9/11 terrorist attack. He calls the air strikes a ‘last resort’, saying the US’s preference is to detain, interrogate and prosecute, rather than carry out strikes.

    Dear Editor,
    Obama’s drone strikes have killed thousands of innocent people. (90+% of the victims were innocent!If an American drone killed an innocent member of my family , I would spend my last breath getting revenge. Obama is no dummy and I’m no genius. Being that Obama appointed self admitted communists to run the FBI and CIA and he was raised by parents who had no love for America, I almost have to think that Obama was intentionally fanning the flames of hatred of the United States to guarantee our expulsion from the region by doing this.

    Launch a drone attack on white house if you think it saves lives

  22. Cara Garnier on July 25, 2021 at 9:38 pm

    Obama/Biden sent 30,000 troops to Afghanistan.
    Stop pretending. Listen to The Intercept Podcast episode “We need to Talk About Joe.”

    This guy will be eviscerated by history for his wanton slaughter.



  25. vvjokinen on July 25, 2021 at 9:39 pm

    Like that 90% civilian death rate



  26. StS9LBJ23 on July 25, 2021 at 9:40 pm

    Thank you for you legacy. Your legacy is TRUMP.
    That’s going to be a tough pill to swallow for all of eternity as you rot in hell barry.



  27. Diego Velasquez on July 25, 2021 at 9:41 pm

    If i searched for the definition of a tyrant I expect this video to pop up



  30. Soak it Up on July 25, 2021 at 9:44 pm

    ONE TOO MANY DRONE STRIKES MR OBAMA



  31. Europa on July 25, 2021 at 9:45 pm

    I thought like 90% of the people that have died from these strikes have been civilians…



  32. Victor Miranda on July 25, 2021 at 9:45 pm

    disappointed with obama



  33. Grant Griffiths on July 25, 2021 at 9:45 pm

    They need to just bomb the whole damn country. Look at how ignorant and uncivilised these fucks look at the end. Not really a surprise that there was so much terrorist activity going on there.



  34. Grimmbleaper on July 25, 2021 at 9:45 pm

    HAHA



  35. Bernardo Santos on July 25, 2021 at 9:47 pm

    Although I really like Obama, his drone policies are disastrous



  36. Technologic on July 25, 2021 at 9:49 pm

    guess what Biden is going to bring back!



  37. Abraham Tsfaye on July 25, 2021 at 9:50 pm

    His drone attacks killed innocent black civilians.
    How many drones did he drop on europeans?



  38. Sky on July 25, 2021 at 9:53 pm

    1:27~ logical fallacy



  39. Grimmbleaper on July 25, 2021 at 9:53 pm

    i think this is funny



  40. namelessone on July 25, 2021 at 9:54 pm

    354 children were killed in drone strikes. not 1000 lives are worth saving if even 1 child is the cost



  41. Miroslaw Wisniewski on July 25, 2021 at 9:55 pm

    USA/USRAEL = terrorists, mega killers, liars. A parasitic system earning usury and wars



  42. Ole Christian Henne on July 25, 2021 at 9:55 pm

    By whoo mister obama by whoo 0.14



  43. Jean-Jacques Rousseau on July 25, 2021 at 9:56 pm

    Is this guy supposed to be a liberal? He sounds like a war-hungry neocon.



  44. Addicted to PNOR on July 25, 2021 at 9:57 pm

    How about we put this murderer under a drone to save his life?



  45. jjab430 on July 25, 2021 at 9:59 pm

    evil man



  46. McKinly Snyder on July 25, 2021 at 10:03 pm

    I understand the public’s disapproval of Trump as he has unprofessionally and overtly abused his office, but this dude professionally and covertly abused his office many many times.



  47. kanimo24 on July 25, 2021 at 10:03 pm

    Of who?



  48. joe momma on July 25, 2021 at 10:06 pm

    insane man



  49. Lonely Stranger on July 25, 2021 at 10:08 pm

    Trump has expanded the drone program and passed laws to keep civilian casualties secret but that is expected of a narcissistic sociopath like him. What bothers me that the architect of the drone program, this military-industrial complex corporate shill Obama was awarded the Nobel Prize.



  50. Akniy on July 25, 2021 at 10:10 pm

    It’s funny how the guardian are criticising Obama are now criticising Trump.
