- adventured 9y agoThat's an entirely bullshit statement by the twitter user. WW2 generals were very arguably some of the greatest military minds the world has ever seen. They rapidly adopted what was radically new military technology at the time and figured out how to use it extraordinarily effectively through understanding it. Eisenhower, Montgomery, Rommel, MacArthur, Patton, Bradley would immediately understand drone strikes. I guarantee their questions would be vastly superior in every regard to what I just watched at the hearing today.
