At the risk of bordering on the SoapBox, those who send them were targeted directly by the Israelis. They were condemned by the international community for "assassinations". Now "everyone" send drones to do it and it's become OK. Funny how that works, but, once the leaders were turning up dead they scream and yell plenty.
So, perhaps I answer my own question, and cause my own refrain: those who profit from this, and they do, as it gives them profit in power and wealth - the world is better when they're not in it. So, they, they beat me - because I'd feed their loathsome carcasses to animals and video it for their followers to see. Even the low-level-drones; so the other drones can see what's in store for them. And they'll scream and yell and curse at our inhumanity . . . and then plant yet another bomb to kill families in restaurants or children at a rock concert.
And now I'm part of it. When will we ever learn?

Indeed a subject for the soapbox. But to answer your question: That's politics. Dirty business must be done all the time. That's no problem. Someone getting caught in the act merely opens opportunities for others to get the upper hand in other messy business. Don't look for morals or any deeper logic.

Is it politics? Or perhaps, it's just business.
Or is there a difference?

It's the underlying corrupt principle of most things that happen. The bad guys are not punished for what they did. When they get caught, they either are hanged by someone who needs to show the rest of the world what a great guy he is, or they are hanged by someone who has greatest interest in preventing them from saying too much. Usually that's called politics.

Where should the answer be delivered?
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

I was serious. OP says it should not go unanswered. Who should get the answer?

That's the big problem of all this... You actually not only do not know, you CAN not know with enough certainty to actually deliver the answer... On a front line it is clear, but we are struggle in a 'war' with no frontiers...

You know this is almost a daily, for sure weekly occurrence in Syria but not once do people post condolences for them.
Guess some people really are less important than others.
Not impressed at all. Selective sympathy: take it somewhere else.

You choose to neglect the state of war in Syria.
Person by person, the sadness is the same for all. Senseless death. Lost potential. Unfulfilled dreams.
Somehow, I see a difference if some lunatic is inspired to drive on a sidewalk to run down whoever is unfortunate enough to be there with no purpose other than to kill. Or pull a knife or scissor and stab the person next to you because they're not your religion. Or a bomb in at a concert.
But - you're right. When Taliban and al Quida and Da'ach are killed, I've no sympathy for their parents.
When I saw a Kurdish village gassed by Saddam Hussein on TV - I actually cried. There's context. If an equal number were killed in battle - I doubt the effect on me would be the same.
You go on - pretend all acts that have the same result are equal. Everything has a context. Evil is no less evil. Context doesn't need race or religion. Some day you'll figure that out.
Until then, use you flimsy excuse of one tragedy to absolve yourself from feeling anything for another.

Where did they imply that? In fact, that's what he was implying about you.

Not logical in that I did, with the very start of the thread, show empathy.
On the other hand - his call for me to not bother is a strong implication that that is the route he chooses for this event and uses Syria's tragedy as a cover.
E.O.F.

But only for the event in Manchester. That's his point. You did not show empathy for the loss of life that happens daily anywhere else. That's all.

I certainly do not think so.

And I'm saying it a BullTurd excuse.
If you can't do all - then do none. Easy way out. Hell - why doesn't he chastise members who post the endless R I P's for celebrities? Other people die every day. What about them? Same damn arguments apply. Stupid arguments.
Here, couch this Edmund Burke quote to fit this situation:
Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could do only a little.
