US Continues Extra-Judicial Drone Assassinations In Spite Of Innocents Being Murdered
–
When will the Obama Administration learn that the highly misguided and illegal use of drones will always come back to haunt them? No matter how many times they try to justify the unlawful use of deadly force by drones, innocent people are always caught in the middle. The death of innocent women, children and elderly men has been a constant problem for both the CIA and the entire military chain of command responsible for these cold-blooded murders.

U.S. drone strike on Yemen wedding party kills 17
The US Federal Government appears to be the only one in the world that has unlawfully arrogated power unto itself to commit these extra-judicial assassinations. Just because the deadly weapons are discharged from drones by remote control does not make these crimes against humanity any more acceptable. Murder is murder regardless of the weapon that is used.
–
Most of the nations that have fallen victim to this high tech military aggression by the USA have protested bitterly. Nevertheless, the CIA and Armed Services continue to support these international crimes. Yemen, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Somalia have complained of the flagrant invasion of their national sovereignty which these missile attacks represent. Yemen has just voted to ban them on their soil.

Shocking Refusal To Express Public Regret Or Sincere Apology
What is most disturbing about this very sordid and ongoing saga is the persistent refusal of the US Government to issue any kind of apology for these atrocities. Because of the CIA’s routine lack of acknowledgment of these massacres, even the citizenry of the USA seems to be oblivious to such heinous crimes being committed in their name. They seem to occur and then are very quickly forgotten just like passing days of the week. Clearly, this is the most serious byproduct of these barbaric assaults in foreign lands. That the people have come to accept them as business as usual.
–
Only because these frequent fatal attacks are not being conducted in Western nations are they somehow justifiable. They have no legitimacy in international law, common law, natural law or federal law. Simply put, the drone assassination program operates completely outside of the framework of every body of law in existence, including military law.
–
How, then, does the USA continue to get away with these repugnant crimes?
There’s only one way. And that is the very same way that a global bully gets away with all of the military aggression and illicit attacks on other sovereign nations. The USA has come to embody, without any legitimacy whatsoever, the false precept of: “Might makes right”.
