War is a racket. It always has been, and in the U.S., it enriches the political elites as innocents die overseas.  Far too many Americans have become far too comfortable with the killing being done in their name.  According to RT, the Trump administration has not only expanded the U.S.' covert and lethal drone program but has taken the covering up of its civilian death toll to a whole new level.  For an administration claiming to be "pro-life," this new revelation should be incredibly disturbing to everyone.

Like most of the battlefields opened more widely under the Obama administration, Donald Trump ramped up airstrikes against the infamous Al-Shabaab terrorist group in Somalia approximately two years ago. But at least Obama never claimed to be pro-life.  He was pretty open about his disregard for others. And, like most drone wars expanded under Obama and dramatically widened under Trump, the details of this covert assault are continuously swept under the rug, particularly when it comes to civilian casualties.
