Does this change the moral issue, the reputational issue, or the devaluation of human life, or how we use a functional tool of terror by just dropping explosives from the sky on foreigners and US citizens? Because it really doesn't if the local government was on board with us doing this for it to be wrong Zach. To be clear, I am not attacking our military here, I am attacking our government that makes these orders and tries to justify these actions. When US citizens are executed by legal order we expect a trial and due process because they have things like rights. We expect our government to continue to follow such processes in the execution of it's functions be that here or abroad because US laws apply to US citizens regardless of where they are or who they are dealing with. If these local governments wanted these people dead, that should have been something they should have done by their own processes and it can be on their hands and not at the cost of the American public.
