There’s a real sickness of being unable to grant basic human consideration to your opponents.
It’s impossible for many to just acknowledge that someone on the other side could possibly be a victim of anything.
It is frightening to see a man who is debating with college students- exercising freedom of speech and democracy - stating his views and openly engaging minds, shot down and killed by an assassin.
But do we feel equally uncomfortable about the numerous and increasing number of drone strikes the US has perpetrated against 'enemy combatant suspects' for decades now, in breach of international law, where an estimated 50 bystanders are killed for every enemy combatant suspect?
There is no trial, no court, no jurisdiction even- just the global tyranny of US power projection into nations where no war is declared between them and the US.
Hundreds of military bases globally enable these hi tech remotely controlled killings in the name of US imperialism.
