O' Zero with mosque decision

NY Post:

President Obama last night strongly backed the Ground Zero mosque while celebrating Ramadan with Muslim Americans at the White House -- saying it shows that the nation's commitment to religious tolerance is "unshakeable."

"Let me be clear. As a citizen, and as president, I believe that Muslims have the same right to practice their religion as everyone else in this country," Obama said to applause in his first comments on the controversy.

...
There he goes again with a false choice. This has never been a question about freedom of religion. It is a question about the sensitivity of building a trophy mosque near the site of an Islamic atrocity. We can talk all we want to about the hijackers hijacking a religion, but if this mosque goes in the proposed site it will be evidence that these guys were along for the ride.  This is an in your face insult to the US and the victims of this mass murder for Allah atrocity.

Fox News finds plenty of other critics of the decision by the President.  It is yet another issue on which he is on the wrong side of the people.

Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
