Same thing for violence perpetrated by the Border Patrol, ATF, DEA, what have you. Similar to the way that we refer to the imposition of the death penalty. But thank you for clarifying the thinking.<br /><br />Targeted drone strikes are a type of assassination. The collateral deaths associated with this are similar to the deaths associated with any type of warfare, be it bullets, missiles or bombs. Substituting one word for another means little. I believe there might have been some instances of the assassination of U.S. citizens abroad affiliated with terrorist organizations. I don't recall perfectly.<br /><br />This I know. Osama Bin Laden, (Sin-laden), was most definitely assassinated.Flying Juniorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02098313953658606206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-68314684743232763952015-04-24T18:57:12.620+02:002015-04-24T18:57:12.620+02:00I wonder how many American soldiers and innocent p...I wonder how many American soldiers and innocent people would die if we sent troops on the ground to get these terrorists? The tools of war are supposed to kill the enemy while saving American soldier's lives. To think there would be no collateral deaths in a war, is rank stupidity.

And then Obama did mention that he accidentally killed an American while bombing some Afghanis back in January.
