More terrorist attacks still going on like the pentagon attack that happened on the same day. Nowadays we have new technology that we can help fight back against terrorist. The new technology is called drones. In the military, they are known as UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles). This piece of technology is very useful for the military. They can search enemy territory, kill enemies, and fly at really high altitude so the enemy won 't spot it. These drones are controlled by a at remote at the military base. Drones can be really helpful to fight against terrorism so are targeted strikes an effective way to fight

Drone strikes have achieved considerable accuracy as a means of eliminating terrorists while avoiding harm to civilians. A crowd of factors has made drone strike much better at killing the terrorist while not harming civilians. drone carries warheads that produce small blast range and the missiles that haul those warheads are navigating using lasers, millimeter wave, and infrared claimant. Civilian casualty rate for 2012 and the beginning of 2013 is only 4.5 percent. Drone strikes typically target individuals who have been placed on a “kill list” by the administration in a secret process that is not subject to oversight or transparency. The traditional weapons of war - bombs, shells, mines, mortars - cause more unintended ("collateral") damage to people and property than drones, whose accuracy and technical precision mostly limit casualties to combatants and intended targets. There are many types of drones for different work. And compared with a 500-pound bomb dropped from an F-16, the grenade like warheads carried by most drones create smaller, more precise blast zones that decrease the risk of unexpected structural damage and casualties.The CIA has about 30 Predator and Reaper drones, which are operated by Air Force pilots. The MQ-1B Predator is used for what the military calls "medium-altitude, long endurance" missions, offering intelligence gathering as well as "munitions capability." The MQ-9 Reaper is used primarily "in a hunter/killer role," and secondarily for intelligence, the military says.Two of the medium-sized drones currently in use in Afghanistan and Pakistan are the MQ-1B Predator and the MQ-9
