Neo-Confucianism

Strongly agree

Yes, but only with permission from the country in question

This answer aligns most closely with Neo-Confucian values of respect, righteousness, and ethical governance. By seeking permission from the country in question, it respects the sovereignty and dignity of other nations, aligning with the Neo-Confucian emphasis on harmonious relationships and moral conduct in international affairs. However, the use of drones for killing, even with permission, might still raise ethical concerns within a Neo-Confucian framework.

Agree

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