White House and CIA lawyers claim that an intelligence “finding” makes a difference because the ban on political assassinations doesn't apply in wartime. Hey presto! The right sort of finding puts everything on a war footing. They also say that the prohibition won’t prevent the U.S. taking action against terrorists. And in the wake of 9/11 it won’t stop the United States acting in self-defence.
So, all the U.S. has to do is invent or manufacture a “finding”, label the folk who stand in their way “terrorists” and claim the murder was an act of self-defence in a war situation, and they're home and dry.
Reports suggest the Bush administration has got together with Israel to establish the legal framework for a new American targeted-assassination policy. The Israelis, of course, are world experts. Annoying pockets of resistance to their land-grabs, ethnic cleansing, abductions, illegal settlements and other “criminal” activities in the West Bank and Gaza Strip are answered with the wholesale imposition of specially concocted warfare laws for the benefit of Israel's “self-defence”, or “homeland security”, but which trample on everyone else’s rights. This is the sort of chicanery that suits Bush admirably as he presses ahead with his war-without-end on terror.

I support this method instead of having to invading every country where Al Qaeda's scent is. Do we treat Al Qaeda as criminals or soldiers? Is it assassination or just killing tangos?

So,
No mention of Russian assassination policy? (which is far worse). But again, you think America and Israel are "masters" of international crime and terrorism
We could talk about Saudi funding and the Pakistani intelligence service, even nations (like Iran) who openly admit to funding terrorists.

The only nations openly engaging in mass terrorism are the US and Israel.
Iran has ties to Hezbollah, but that is it. Hezbollah is a resistance organization and has engaged in no single act of terrorism.
Speaking of Iran, who is funding and training the most active terrorist networks in Iran, MEK and Jundollah?

I have seen your other posts in which you claim the Jews carried out horrible crimes against all Arabs. In fact, you said zionists should be forcelly removed and "then we can talk about Jewish rights". All your posts contain the words "Jews", "Zionist" and "Israel".

You quote Al-Jazeera as a reliable source regarding information about the US and Israel and then turn around and say that claims proving Hezbollah conducted terrorist attacks are biased?
My goodness. Talk about credibility issues.

PFFF, look at the source.
The "terrorist times"
That source is "LESS" reliable than that "Sourcha Faa- (False Source')" clown.
It makes Bush/CNN and Fox news seem absolutely accurate about everything, in comparison.
