The CIA as Executioner: Murder as an Instrument of U.S. Foreign Policy
By LIAQUAT ALI KHAN - November 03, 2011
The legitimization of extra-judicial killing is a disturbing development in international law as other nations are certain to follow suit. In pursuit of pre-meditated murders...the killing of the obviously innocent...has been extensive. The claim that such murders can be executed with electronic precision...serves as an incentive for other nations to develop drones to perpetrate their own surgical assassinations. For now, however, the CIA enjoys the monopoly over drone kills.
