I’m not sure what “alleged combatants” (the vast majority of those killed) are when it comes to targeted killings, or assassination. I am also afraid, this is only the beginning.

It’s also interesting to note that as time goes on, the civilian/children casualties drop in numbers. As well, almost half of the children casualties are the result of one single incident close to the start (2006) of the drone campaign.

I’m with you in condemning the US’s use of drones in this (or practically any!) fashion, but as far as the stats from this chart seem to go, it appears to indicate drone use is becoming more effective as time goes on.

Which isn’t a good thing in my books.

Thanks. I had become interested in the approach by Lu and Steinhart using girih tiles (published in Science magazine in 2007). You can find this set of prototiles here: http://aliqapoo.com/2009/04/26/abstract-art/
Most designs can actually be constructed by using this set (although there is no prove that artisans had actually used it or are still using it when repairing the decoration).
Best, HP

I want to paint large abstracts based on this style but don’t know where to start, so any advice/help from experts is most welcome. happy new year (belatedly) to all, with thanks Jeremy:))

I like how you bring into focus how when these things happen else where its not thought of the same. I caught some flak for bringing up such a point in my original post on the tragedy in Connecticut and how it was already being politicized around gun control.

http://forlibertysake.wordpress.com/2012/12/15/never-let-a-serious-crisis-go-to-waste-gun-regulation-talk-after-connecticut-tragedy/

I also just finished my post related to a proper understanding of gun control, the 2nd amendment, and right wing extremism as it relates to the Constitution and liberty.

Thanks for your insights. I would greatly appreciate any feedback you may be able to give.

For Liberty Sake!
