I'm not going to argue this further. It's a basic fact - you can't cut up / desecrate a corpse.

lol. Sure. But to say "It's totally a MAJOR WAR CRIME ya'll!" is dumb. There's already enough hyperbole on these dead gay comedy forums. :colbert:

Only if you've got something more appropriate available! :science:

In other words, if you've run out of machine gun ammo, and all you have left is a rocket, you don't have to just go "welp, I guess we gotta let them kill us now."

The MQ-9 Reaper represents the next step in remote plane technology. And that step is rigged to explode. The Reaper carries more ordinance than any other unmanned vehicle in the air, 3000+ lbs of explosives, or 14 Hellfire missiles. Standard Predators carry 2 or less. Each of these missiles are capable of taking out anything from snipers to tanks. The MQ-9 is the modern hunter-killer, made all the more remarkable because its pilots fly the UAVs in utter safety from Creech Air Force Base in Nevada.

The hellfire weighs just over 100 lbs. That's 1400 lbs, not 3000

The warhead is around 20 lbs, so the actual explosive weight is about 280 lbs.

It's already about as hard as I would expect a book that literally says it's trying to make you sympathetic to her point of view to be. It gets across that her point of view is batshit nuts, totally isolated from reality by entitlement, riches, and sycophants (there's a particularly memorable passage where she, baffled by Sanders and Trump's success, asks one of her aides, "what is everyone so angry about?") and that's why she confused the map for the territory and why she was such a deluded fool who ran without a reason and lost without enthusiasm. Even the authors can't resist the temptation to deflate her and her campaigns attempt to blame others for her loss and suggest that sometimes the problem is blindness to one's own problems. If you want to read a book that just straight up bashes Hitlery Cunton without any pretense of sympathy for her, there's practically a cottage industry of that since the 90s
