Both the International law and US constitution prohibit killing outside of armed conflict without due process, “except as a resort to avert a concerete, specific, imminent threat of death or serious physical injury”, yet the United States continues the use of drone strikes in “targeted killings” of “suspected” terrorist overseas that “might” be plotting against it without due process of law. This has caused the unaccounted deaths of hundreds in Yemen, Somalia and Pakistan and widespread anger.
