Actually, the article you quoted does not seem to support your claims. There is a legal framework for targeted killings, but that framework belongs to American and not international law.
Quoting from your article:
>Philip Alston, the former UN special rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary, or arbitrary executions, condemns the U.S. claims of self-defense as overly expansive, stating that "if other states were to claim the broad-based authority that the United States does, to kill people anywhere, anytime, the result would be chaos."
