Don't need them. The US military has been flying unmanned aircraft since the 70's and have used them extensively in military operations since the 90's. I just finished reading a book on Desert Storm and all that was that war, and the military was using unmanned planes extensively during action there. It was regular operating procedure to fly an unmanned plane in prior to attacks to draw fire from Iraqi SAM and 3A sites and allow the attack aircraft to fly through with less resistance. Those aircraft were flown remotely from McDill airforce base in Tampa. Not a bad trick. Have a plane take off from Saudi Arabia, act as a decoy, and land back in Saudi Arabia, all controlled by a guy 8,000 miles away in a different country. Pilots were not a requirement if the US Government took an active role in this. I am not saying they did btw. I still think they knew the attack was coming and did nothing about it. The Pentagon attack still doesn't fit to me though. I think they may have taken advantage of a situation and fabricated something there to create a bigger mess and generate a greater sense of outrage and resolve in the American people. I think they took advantage of a situation to execute a plan they had cooked up long before they were in office.
