McChrystal, Ex-Commander of U.S. Forces in Afghanistan, Questions Drone Warfare 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


 
Speaking to Reuters, the former commander of U.S. troops in Afghanistan,
retired General Stanley Mc Chrystal, became one of the highest-ranking
former military officials to publicly question the drone attacks,
saying: "The resentment created by American use of unmanned strikes ...
is much greater than the average American appreciates. They are hated on
a visceral level, even by people who’ve never seen one or seen the
effects of one."
