This has always been a problem in warfare, just more so with drones because of the lesser quality of field information. But I believe there is a far greater concern. With the proliferation of drones and the subsequent reduction in the risk to live troops, I think it will increase the likelihood of countries viewing open conflict as a reasonable option.

Yes. Just as going to the all volunteer military made it easier to engage in foreign wars. 

All those cost factors which go into politicians war calculations are being removed.
