> Send a surgical strike into a country that aside from having the presence of the bad actor had nothing to do with it?

Work with law enforcement agencies in those countries to apprehend the person. If the country won't cooperate or shields the attackers, then sure, a drone strike could work.

Extra-judicial executions for unauthorized information access is not the right way to conduct yourself as a nation.

Hard disagree. First, you downplay "unauthorized information access". Foreign adversaries have targeted our industrial SCADA systems, which can lead to death and destruction.

Second, there's no moral absolutes that dictate how a nation should act. I value the lives and information of my family and friends more than I value the lives of someone attacking them. Don't like it, don't attack... :shrug:

Yeah, let's drone strike Edward Snowden because you have a small dick. Fucking moron.

It's kinda funny that when talking about foreign adversaries attacking the United States, you went to Edward Snowden.

You said it, not me.

Now that the American empire is going to shit, how are you going to get your dick hard without being able to murder people just because you feel like it?

What's your obsession with my penis? This is your second comment about it. I ignored it the first time, so you try harder the second time? You're a creepy dude.
