Cannabis was considered a harmful drug for many years despite the fact that scientific evidence to prove it is greatly lacking. All of the evidence points to this plant having great benefits for the human body. It’s 2014 now, and more people are becoming aware of the fact that our body actually produces compounds called endocannabinoids, and they play an important role in many processes within the body that help to create a healthy environment. Cannabis activates the cannabinoid receptors in the body. It’s important to note that the best method of ingestion is not through smoke, because this changes the chemical structure of the plant. Cannabis is a powerful key to good health when we eat it vs. smoking it.</span></div>

Keep in mind that these are the major funders of all ‘medical research’ that’s used to administer drugs and vaccinations. Despite these connections, medical research and documentation exists to show that vaccines might indeed be a cause for concern.</div><div style="border: 0px; font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14.399999618530273px; line-height: 30.799999237060547px; padding: 0px;"><br />

We’ve presented multiple studies, citing multiple research papers and published research conducted by doctors and universities from all across the world. <a href="http://www.ecomed.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/3-tomljenovic.pdf" style="-webkit-transition: all 0.2s ease-in; border: 0px; color: rgb(0, 51, 153) !important; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; transition: all 0.2s ease-in;" target="_blank">Here</a> is an example of a paper that describes how vaccine manufactures and medical ‘experts’ with drug industry connections have been aware of the multiple dangers associated with vaccinations for over 30 years. We’d also like to present medical research that indicates the many dangers associated with vaccines, and have done this on multiple occasions. We do this because the safety of vaccinations is commonly pushed by the mainstream media, without ever mentioning or citing the abundant medical research that should also be taken into consideration when discussing vaccinations. Please keep in mind that there is evidence on both sides. At the same time, some of the evidence on the side that negates a positive outlook on vaccination has been labelled fraudulent, but then again many haven’t.</div><div style="border: 0px; font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14.399999618530273px; line-height: 30.799999237060547px; padding: 0px;"><br />

It has been a tale of shifting beliefs as child vaccination rates remain high. On February 1998, Andrew Wakefield, a British gastroenterologist and his colleagues published a paper that supposedly linked Autism to Vaccines<a href="http://cid.oxfordjournals.org/content/48/4/456.full" style="-webkit-transition: all 0.2s ease-in; border: 0px; color: rgb(0, 51, 153) !important; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; transition: all 0.2s ease-in;" target="_blank">(5)</a>. More specifically, he claimed that the MMR vaccine was responsible for intestinal inflammation that led to translocation of usually non-permeable peptides to the bloodstream and, subsequently, to the brain, where they affected development(5). His work was unpublished, and he lost his medical license despite the fact multiple studies seem to support Andrew Wakefield’s work (<a href="http://vran.org/wp-content/documents/VRAN-Abnormal%20Measles-Mumps-Rubella-Antibodies-CNS-Autoimmunity-Children-Autism-Singh-Lin-Newell-Nelson.pdf" style="-webkit-transition: all 0.2s ease-in; border: 0px; color: rgb(0, 51, 153) !important; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; transition: all 0.2s ease-in;" target="_blank">here</a> is one example, and <a href="http://www.mdpi.com/1099-4300/14/11/2227" style="-webkit-transition: all 0.2s ease-in; border: 0px; color: rgb(0, 51, 153) !important; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; transition: all 0.2s ease-in;" target="_blank">here</a> is another.) He has been labelled a fraud by the mainstream medical world, some experts claim that his research and methods are weak and based on very little evidence. Dr Wakefield’s research will NOT be used in this article.</div><div style="border: 0px; font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14.399999618530273px; line-height: 30.799999237060547px; padding: 0px;"><br />

It can become quite confusing a subject given that we have multiple medical studies contradicting each other. Was Dr. Wakefield exposing something that the medical industry did not want you to know? It is known that vaccine manufacturers suppress harmful data regarding their product, as mentioned and illustrated earlier in the article. Regardless of the MMR vaccine and autism debate, there are still a number of studies that link vaccines to a possible autism connection. Please keep in mind that multiple courts worldwide have ruled in favour of vaccines causing autism, brain damage and other complications (6)(7), that include the MMR vaccine.</div><div style="border: 0px; font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14.399999618530273px; line-height: 30.799999237060547px; padding: 0px;"><a href="https://draft.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=5959300518432319010" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a>Below is a list of 22 medical studies that show possible connections to vaccines and autism. Please keep in mind that we’ve only presented 22 studies here, there are many more published papers that document the link. Hopefully this inspires you to further your research on the subject. Also keep in mind that Autism is only one of the multiple shown consequences of vaccine administration, as they have been linked to a number of other ailments.</div><div style="border: 0px; font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14.399999618530273px; line-height: 30.799999237060547px; padding: 0px;"><br />

They showed that the correlation between ASD prevalence and the Aluminum adjuvant exposure appears to be the highest at 3-4 months of age. The studies also show that children from countries with the highest ASD appear to have a much higher exposure to Aluminum from vaccines. The study points out that several prominent milestones of brain development coincide with major vaccination periods for infants. These include the onset of synaptogenesis (birth), maximal growth velocity of the hippocampus and the onset of amygdala maturation. Furthermore, major developmental transition in many bio-behavioral symptoms such as sleep, temperature regulation, respiration and brain wave patterns, all of which are regulated by the neuroendocrine network. Many of these aspects of brain function are known to be impaired in autism, such as sleeping and brain wave patterns.</div><div style="border: 0px; font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14.399999618530273px; line-height: 30.799999237060547px; padding: 0px;"><br />

Further according to the FDA, “this places significant emphasis on their vaccine safety”. While the FDA does set an upper limit for Aluminum in vaccines at no more that 850/mg/dose, it is important to note that this amount was selected empirically from data showing that Aluminum in such amounts enhanced the antigenicity of the vaccine, rather than from existing safety. Given that the scientific evidence appears to indicate that vaccine safety is not as firmly established as often believed, it would seem ill advised to exclude paediatric vaccinations as a possible cause of adverse long-term neurodevelopment outcomes , including those associated with autism.</div><div style="border: 0px; font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14.399999618530273px; line-height: 30.799999237060547px; padding: 0px;"><img src="http://streetdemocracy.files.wordpress.com/2013/06/movie_d-n.jpg" /></div><div style="border: 0px; font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14.399999618530273px; line-height: 30.799999237060547px; padding: 0px;"><br />

They determined that one of those triggers might be the “battery of vaccinations that young children receive.” Researchers found a positive and statistically significant relationship between autism and vaccinations. They determined that the higher the proportion of children receiving recommended vaccinations, the higher the prevalence of autism. A 1 % increase in vaccination was associated with an additional 680 children having autism. The results suggest that vaccines may be linked to autism and encourages more in depth study before continually administering these vaccines.</div><div style="border: 0px; font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14.399999618530273px; line-height: 30.799999237060547px; padding: 0px;"><br />

They looked at B-cells and their sensitivity levels to thimerosal, a commonly used additive in many vaccines. They determined that ASD patients have a heightened sensitivity to thimerosal which would restrict cell proliferation that is typically found after vaccination. The research shows that individuals who have this hypersensitivity to thimerosal could make them highly susceptible to toxins like thimerosal, and that individuals with a mild mitochondrial defect may be affected by thimerosal. The fact that ASD patients’ B cells exhibit hypersensitivity to thimerosal tells us something.</div><div style="border: 0px; font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14.399999618530273px; line-height: 30.799999237060547px; padding: 0px;"><br />

Researchers discovered that because many autistic children harbour elevated levels of measles antibodies, they should conduct a serological study of measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) and myelin basic protein (MBP) autoantibodies. They used serum samples of 125 autistic children and 92 controlled children. Their analysis showed a significant increase in the level of MMR antibodies in autistic children. The study concludes that the autistic children had an inappropriate or abnormal antibody response to MMR. The study determined that autism could be a result from an atypical measles infection that produces neurological symptoms in some children. The source of this virus could be a variant of MV, or it could be the MMR vaccine.</div><div style="border: 0px; font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14.399999618530273px; line-height: 30.799999237060547px; padding: 0px;"><br />

Evidence for mercury intoxication should be considered in the differential diagnosis as contributing to some regressive ASDs.</div><div style="border: 0px; font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14.399999618530273px; line-height: 30.799999237060547px; padding: 0px;"><br />

The objective of this study was to compare early infant cognition and behavior with amygdala size and opioid binding in rhesus macaques receiving the recommended childhood vaccines. The animal model, which examines for the first time, behavioral, functional and neuromorphometric consequences of the childhood vaccine regimen, mimics certain neurological abnormalities of autism. These findings raise important safety issues while providing a potential model for examining aspects of causation and disease pathogenesis in acquired disorders of behavior and development.</div><div style="border: 0px; font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14.399999618530273px; line-height: 30.799999237060547px; padding: 0px;"><br />

Statin Drugs Are the Greatest Medical Fraud of All Time: Study Reports

TheWake UpCall 0 Statin Drugs, Study 5:14 PM

<div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Statins are one of the most dangerous drugs prescribed by doctors. The risks from them were obvious before they were ever  marketed. Nonetheless, they are among the best selling drugs of all time. Finally, genuine science has been looking at their adverse effects and lack of benefit to document the truth that was obvious from the beginning:</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><strong><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Statins are the greatest medical fraud ever perpetrated.</span></strong><br />

Not only do they condemn the drugs, they also condemn the pseudo science behind it. Though they don’t state it, and obviously could not take such a risk, there is simply no way around the fact that the science behind statins has been largely fraudulent, and that fraud has been perpetrated by Big Pharma.</span></div><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">So what did the study actually say?</span><br />

<div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sultan and Hynes reviewed a large number of studies, using Pubmed, EM-BASE, and Cochrane review databases to find them. They focused primarily on clinical reviews, meta-analyses, and large-scale randomised controlled trials. The entire list of studies they selected is included in their paper, which you can read because it isn’t hidden behind a pay wall.</span></div>

<div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They stated:</span></div><blockquote style="border: 0px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 15px 15px 1px;"><div style="margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We seem to have fallen into the marketing trap and ignored the niggling side effects with regard to the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors</span></div></blockquote><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The “we” the authors referred to was the medical industry. HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors are statins. Their function is to interfere with HMG-CoA, which is a molecule that’s a precursor to cholesterol. Of course, the purpose of a statin is to reduce cholesterol, which they do accomplish.</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So what’s the problem? As the authors state:</span></div><blockquote style="border: 0px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 15px 15px 1px;"><div style="margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Cholesterol is crucial for energy, immunity, fat metabolism, leptin, thyroid hormone activity, liver related synthesis, stress intolerance, adrenal function, sex hormone</span></div></blockquote><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Cholesterol is a primary requirement for an enormous array of absolutely critical functions in the body. Obviously, if cholesterol is reduced, then health <strong>must</strong> be harmed:</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><strong><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There is simply no excuse for not recognizing that not only is there an obvious risk inherent in statins, but that it would be stunning if they didn’t produce harm.</span></strong></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In terms of benefit, the authors noted that the only people who are helped at all are middle aged men who have already suffered heart attacks. (Readers of Gaia Health will be familiar with this fact, as it’s been stated here many times.) And that benefit is minimal. In fact, the authors point out that statins produce less benefit for these men than aspirin. <em>Please note that Gaia Health does not support aspirin as a treatment for heart disease, either.</em></span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><br />
</div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><strong><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In effect, statins produce not one whit of benefit to anyone in any manner.</span></strong></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The authors found that, for every 10,000 individuals in good health who take statins:</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They also point out that statins cause erectile dysfunction, and that young men suffer 10 times as much erectile dysfunction on low doses of statins. Beyond all these adverse effects:</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here’s the most shocking health risk of statins:</span></div><blockquote style="border: 0px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 15px 15px 1px;"><div style="margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">[S]tatin use is associated with an increased prevalence and extent of coronary plaques calcification. Ironically for a drug which was marketed to lower the risk of cardiovascular disease, the confirm registry identified a strong association of statin use to the progression of coronary artery plaque features.</span></div></blockquote><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">This isn’t simply irony. </span><strong style="line-height: 18px;">Statins increase the harm that they are supposedly meant to decrease!</strong></span><br />
<div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In relation to this particular heart risk, the authors also found that:</span></div><blockquote style="border: 0px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 15px 15px 1px;"><div style="margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Statin use was correlated with a greater incidence of severe coronary artery stenosis as well as increase in the numbers of coronary vessels developing obstructive coronary artery disease. Furthermore, statin use was linked to an increase in the prevalence and extent of mixed calcific plaque. Five prospective studies have borne witness to the fact that statin therapy does not induce any coronary calcium regression and evolution of</span></div></blockquote><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That is, statins increase the narrowing of coronary arteries, which can only increase the chance of heart attacks. They increase the development of obstructive coronary artery disease. Statins may increase calcium-related arterial plaques.</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Statins also produce a significant increase in the risk of cancer and neurodegenerative dysfunction in the elderly.</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The authors point out even more than this—but just how much more do you need to know? Statins are health destroyers.</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The study points out that statins may increase the risk for nonmelanoma skin cancers by 1.6 times. The authors then state:</span></div><blockquote style="border: 0px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); line-height: 18px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 15px 15px 1px;"><div style="margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For unknown reasons, since these publications the squamous cell carcinoma has been excluded in all reports from subsequent statin trials.</span></div></blockquote><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Is there any way to interpret that other than that the statin industry does not want there to be more evidence that statins cause skin cancer?</span></div><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The authors referenced studies that had claimed to demonstrate benefits from statins. However, when they were reanalyzed by independent scientists—that is, scientists who genuinely didn’t have ties to Big Pharma—they found that the claimed results were false. The studies actually showed that statins produced no benefit and a great deal of harm.</span></span><br />
<div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It’s bad enough that Big Pharma produces studies that can only be called junk science to give an impression that statins are effective and safe. It’s obviously fraudulent, and all those who have willingly taken part in such  studies—whether by paying for them or doing them—should be prosecuted criminally. There is simply no way to get around the fact that, at the very least, many of these people are guilty of negligent homicide by providing false evidence of both efficacy and safety.</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The news industry has also been guilty, as this study was published over two months ago, yet there’s been virtually no coverage by the mainstream media. This is news that could save the lives of millions of people, yet the mainstream media hasn’t bothered with it. Clearly, their interests are not in real news, but are in their owners’ financial interests. Every mainstream media corporation in the United States is owned by another corporation that also owns at least one major pharmaceutical corporation or is controlled by someone with heavy interests in them. For example:</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If that weren’t enough, consider also that the pharmaceutical industry is, by far, the biggest advertiser on mainstream media. To suggest that the news media hasn’t also been complicit is either naive or intentionally misleading. The mainstream news media has clearly determined that their duty, to provide information that the public needs, is not their concern.</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The agencies that are supposed to protect us from harmful health products, such as the FDA, the CDC, and the NIH, have all been complicit in the promotion of statins. Even now, the CDC strongly<a href="http://www.cdc.gov/cholesterol/what_you_can_do.htm" style="outline: none; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">recommends</a> the use of statins. The FDA does nothing more than add <a href="http://www.fda.gov/drugs/drugsafety/ucm293101.htm" style="outline: none; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">warnings</a> to the package inserts of statins, an utterly meaningless endeavor that has never been shown to have any significant effect on sales of drugs. The <a href="http://gaia-health.com/gaia-blog/2013-09-18/statins-are-the-greatest-medical-fraud-of-all-time-study-reports/%22http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/statins.html" style="outline: none; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">NIH states</a>, “Statins are relatively safe for most people.”</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It’s obvious that our health agencies are acting almost exclusively as marketing agents for Big Pharma.</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><img src="http://wpmedia.blogs.theprovince.com/2012/03/pills.jpg" /></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Last, but certainly not least, are the doctors who prescribe statins. They tend to argue that it’s not their fault, that they can only go by the studies. But the reality is that it’s their job to stand between their patients and dangerous drugs. If they are unable or unwilling to do their jobs—which is clearly the case for any of them who prescribe statins without informing their patients of the risks and almost complete lack of benefit—then they are no different than those who produce pseudo science, junk science, or outright fraudulent science to support these poisons. At a minimum, they are guilty of failing in their duty to their patients. They may also be guilty of negligent homicide for any patient who dies as a result of their lack of diligence.</span></div></div><div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Statins are the greatest medical fraud of all time. It had to be known from the very beginning that they would likely produce a great deal of harm. As the authors point out, statins interfere with the production of cholesterol, thus producing deficits in metabolic functions that are necessary for life.</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There is, therefore, no excuse for doctors not to know.</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There is no excuse for the news media not to do the research that would have shown them the fraud being perpetrated.</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There is no excuse for the health agencies that approved statins or the ones that promote them. They had to have the relevant information.</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And finally, there is no excuse for the doctors, because they should have known. If they didn’t, then they were derelict in their duty.</span></div><div style="line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Everyone involved in the development, marketing, approval, promotion, and prescription of statins is guilty of perpetrating the greatest medical fraud of all time. Tallying up the death toll is most likely impossible, but there can be little doubt that the numbers run into multiple millions.</span></div></div><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Source: </span><a href="http://www.wakingtimes.com/2013/09/23/statin-drugs-greatest-medical-fraud-time-study-reports/">http://www.wakingtimes.com/2013/09/23/statin-drugs-greatest-medical-fraud-time-study-reports/</a><br />

New Study Finds That Drones Kill 10 Times More Civilians Than Manned Planes

<span style="font-family: Helvetica, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21.59375px;">A new </span><a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/jul/02/us-drone-strikes-afghan-civilians" style="border: 0px; color: #f37221; cursor: pointer; font-family: Helvetica, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21.59375px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none;">study</a><span style="font-family: Helvetica, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21.59375px;"> has found that the use of drones in Afghanistan resulted in 10 times more civilian deaths than manned aircraft. The study was conducted by Larry Lewis, a research scientist at the Center for Naval Analyses, and Sarah Holewinsk of the Center for Civilians in Conflict. The report used classified military data to calculate the number of civilian deaths caused by drones as opposed to manned fighter aircraft.</span><br />

<div style="border: 0px; font-family: Helvetica, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 20px; padding: 0px;">Lewis and Holewinsk examined the manned and unmanned strikes that occured in Afghanistan between mid 2010 and mid 2011, the most ferocious period of the air war, when up to <a href="http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2011/02/afghan-air-war-doubles-now-10-attacks-per-day/" style="border: 0px; color: #f37221; cursor: pointer; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none;">10 bombing missions a day</a> were conducted. This was double the previous rate seen during Gen. Stanley McChrystal's time as Commader of U.S. and NATO Coalition Forces. Gen. McChrystal's strategy had been to limit air strikes to avoid civilian casualties and the subsequent outrage from the local population.</div>

The findings may reinvigorate the debate between the effectiveness of pilots and the advantages of new technology.</div><div style="border: 0px; font-family: Helvetica, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 20px; padding: 0px;">From <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/jul/02/us-drone-strikes-afghan-civilians" style="border: 0px; color: #f37221; cursor: pointer; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none;"><em style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">The </em><em style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Guardian</em></a>:</div><blockquote style="border-left-color: rgb(230, 230, 231); border-left-style: solid; border-width: 0px 0px 0px 5px; font-family: Helvetica, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.5em; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 10px;"><div style="border: 0px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 20px; padding: 0px;">"These findings show us that it's not about the technology, it's about how the technology is used," said Holewinski. "Drones aren't magically better at avoiding civilians than fighter jets. When pilots flying jets were given clear directives and training on civilian protection, they were able to lower civilian casualty rates." Yet the demand for additional drone strikes by commanders in the war zone creates pressure to reduce training, Holewinski and Lewis note."Adding or improving training on civilian casualty prevention is a resource decision in direct tension with the increasing demand for more UAS [unmanned aerial systems] and more operations, since additional training on civilian protection means time must be taken from somewhere else including the mission itself," Lewis and Holewinski write in their Prism article.</div>
