Episode description

A former military Chaplain, Professor Peter Lee talked to drone operators and their families and found out that in spite of popular belief, operating drones in warfare does not detach operators from the act of killing, or the mental health consequences.

 

In this episode he explains his perspective that technology cannot remove the innately human nature of war and conflict.
