The Afghan government wants us there but has previously threatened to kick us out of the civilian non combatants getting killed by airstrikes didn't stop.

I don't see how whether the "pilot" is in the actual bomber, or on his sofa 8,000 miles away would have an impact on this. Considering how far they lanch their bombs from, they can't accurately see the target with their naked eye, they are relying on instriments to convey the information. So what is the difference in the information being conveyed to the cockpit, or the couch?
