Agree

Yes

Individualism emphasizes personal freedom and self-reliance, which can extend to the belief in a strong defense. However, it also values non-interference in others' affairs, which could make the use of drones in foreign countries a contentious issue.

Slightly agree

No, the military has no right to do so without a Congressional declaration of war

This answer aligns slightly with individualism insofar as it emphasizes the rule of law and the importance of checks and balances (in this case, requiring a Congressional declaration of war). Individualism values the protection of individual rights, which can include ensuring that state actions, such as military interventions, are conducted within a legal framework.

Slightly agree

Yes, but only with permission from the country in question

Seeking permission from the country in question before flying drones for intelligence or military purposes could be seen as respecting the sovereignty and autonomy of that nation, which aligns slightly with individualist principles that value autonomy and consent. However, the direct connection to individualism is tenuous, as the ideology is more focused on the rights of individuals than on state-to-state relations.

Slightly agree

Yes, but only with permission from the country in question

This answer aligns with the individualist value of non-interference by respecting the sovereignty of other nations. However, it also implies a level of government control and regulation that could conflict with individualist principles.

Slightly agree

Yes, the U.S. needs to use all means necessary to combat terrorism

This answer aligns with the individualist belief in self-defense and protection of individual rights. However, the phrase 'all means necessary' could imply a disregard for the rights of others, which would conflict with individualist principles.

Neutral

No

While individualism emphasizes personal freedom and autonomy, it does not provide a clear stance on the use of military force or surveillance by the state in international contexts. The opposition to drone flights for these purposes would likely be based on concerns about sovereignty, ethics, or legality, rather than on individualism per se.

Neutral

Yes

Individualism as an ideology focuses on the rights and autonomy of the individual, rather than on the actions of the state. The use of drones for intelligence and targeted killings in foreign countries is a complex issue that involves state power, international law, and ethical considerations, which are not directly addressed by the principles of individualism.

Neutral

No, only to gather intelligence, not to kill suspected terrorists

This answer represents a balance between the individualist values of self-defense and non-interference. However, it also implies a level of government control and regulation that could conflict with individualist principles.

Neutral

No, only to gather intelligence, not to kill suspected terrorists

While this answer suggests a more restrained use of military power, focusing on intelligence gathering over targeted killings, it does not directly relate to individualism. Individualism is more concerned with the rights and autonomy of individuals rather than the specifics of military engagement strategies.

Neutral

Yes, the U.S. needs to use all means necessary to combat terrorism

The assertion that the U.S. needs to use all means necessary to combat terrorism reflects a national security perspective rather than an individualist ideology. Individualism prioritizes the rights and freedoms of individuals, which does not inherently justify or oppose specific military strategies.

Slightly disagree

No, the military has no right to do so without a Congressional declaration of war

While individualism values the rule of law, which could support the need for a Congressional declaration of war, it also values personal freedom and self-reliance, which could support the use of drones without such a declaration.

Disagree

No

While individualism values non-interference, it also recognizes the need for self-defense and protection of individual rights, which could justify the use of drones for intelligence gathering and combating terrorism.
