Some interesting info on the US drone & assassination program.

You could have picked a more sensational title to attract attention than the bore you choose.  Anyway, thank gawd there's still true investigative journalists and whistleblowers left out there that aren't afraid of the Powers That Be.  Doing the right thing is never easy.

The articles in The Drone Papers were produced by a team of reporters and researchers from The Intercept that has spent months analyzing the documents. The series is intended to serve as a long-overdue public examination of the methods and outcomes of America’s assassination program. This campaign, carried out by two presidents through four presidential terms, has been shrouded in excessive secrecy. The public has a right to see these documents not only to engage in an informed debate about the future of U.S. wars, both overt and covert, but also to understand the circumstances under which the U.S. government arrogates to itself the right to sentence individuals to death without the established checks and balances of arrest, trial, and appeal.

Short answer: The US government does whatever it wants because no one can stop it.

Yep, that's pretty much all there is to it.

So turn in your guns, everyone, you can trust the U.S. government!
