| Sponsored by Classical Pursuits On Friday, the United States military, at Donald Trump’s orders, bombed a speedboat in international waters, killing three people, for the alleged crime of drug trafficking. It was the third such bombing in as many weeks, bringing the death toll of the administration’s extrajudicial campaign to at least seventeen. “There was no conceivable legal authority for these killings,” writes David Cole in the NYR Online:
Indeed, Cole elaborates, “In the absence of any conceivable military justification for these acts, it is difficult to view them as anything but premeditated murder, pure and simple.” Below, alongside Cole’s essay, are four articles from our archive about the history of presidents invoking war powers—whether or not the United States is at war—to justify the use of lethal force.
