I don't really understand how any of this contributes to "defense". Sounds like "offense" to me. Just patrolling the skies over non-white countries and launching missiles at weddings. The reason the Pentagon invests so heavily in this kind of technology is our wars are so indefensible, they can't convince Americans to sacrifice blood in any quantity for other people's natural resources.

Drones can be used for both offense and defense. For example the usage of drones in Ukraine can be classified as defense.

They are white [1].

Drones fly over Gaza all the time, scaring the shit out of people and sometimes murdering them senselessly. They have done this over many countries.

They certainly look white to me.

Are Spanish people white or Hispanic according to those definitions?

'Original peoples' is an interesting phrase. Neanderthals? Beaker people?

A single category for everyone from Pakistanis to Japanese is weird.

I think they meant Caucasian.

> Introduced in the 1780s by members of the Göttingen school of history, the term denoted one of three purported major races of humans: Caucasoid, Mongoloid, and Negroid

Sounds totally legit.

Caucasian includes South Asians and some East Africans according to that definition.
