Will U.S. drones join drug war?
by Dane Schiller Express-News

November 21, 2010

Without leaving American airspace, remotely piloted surveillance drones — outfitted with cameras that provide real-time video — fly along the Texas border searching U.S. territory for drug smugglers, illegal immigrants and potential terrorists.

They also are fully capable of peering into Mexico, where narco terrorists eviscerate the rule of law.

But does the U.S. government ever risk the international fallout of using the aircrafts' high-tech surveillance abilities to take a peek south of the border — or share what they see with Mexican counterparts fighting for their lives?

The American public likely never will know.

“Officially, no,â€

So, these will just give us better pictures of the drugs dealers? They won't use them for anything else.

Heck no they will use the drones to watch US...
