How is murdering someone in peacetime ethical? I don't like the Ayalotah, but becoming an even bigger p.o.s. than him could hardly be a step forward?

Just because it's not a nation doesn't mean it's not a war.
If an individual is be remotely murdered, not having explosives involved is clearly better as the article points out due to reducing collateral damage. My concern is that the increase in "precision" will lead to an increase in such strikes in general. Killing people without due process should not be normalized just because the technology has improved.
Christ, I get their moral arithmetic but... goddamn, that's a hell of a way to kill someone.
