The Conundrums of Emerging Virtuous War
After assuming office as President, Donald Trump on the third day authorized drones strikes in Yemen. Consequently, as per U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), five suspected member of al Qaeda were killed in central Yemen. Recently U.S. drone strikes killed two more suspected members in Abyan and other two provinces of Southern Yemen. As per, Pentagon “somewhere over 30 strikes” were carried out against al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) in two days. With the escalation of conflict in Yemen, drone strikes are likely to soar under Trump. Does this imply that Trump is following the footsteps of Obama in regard to US policy on drones and their utility in military operations?
