Special court to approve of killing Americans with drones?. (VIDEO)

The issue of drones and extrajudicial killings has become so mainstream that even former-Defense Secretary Robert Gates is speaking out about ways to make the program more palatable.

Over the weekend, he came out in support of making a special independent court be responsible for evaluating the necessity of any given drone strike.

Meanwhile, lawmakers and civilians alike are demanding more oversight for the drone program, almost ten years after it started.
