Yes, there should be oversight before the act and scrutiny after. Yes, it should be formalized.
- useriousbro 6y agoAnd I am asking.. does this look like one of those situations and do you think there is appropriate oversight in this situation? our shock I guess is that we don't think that there is scrutiny and that these ends do not justify these means.
- jacobush 6y agoI can imagine these too, but some imaginary scenarios come too close to "24" TV series scenarios, i.e. completely unrealistic. But I will give you that, even if you subscribe to the idea it came sometimes make some sense with extrajudicial killing, what we currently have is drone killings on a factory scale. It's disgusting.
- RandoHolmes 6y agoI think that's a reasonable opinion, but I would also like to point out that in the US it's neither formalized, nor scrutinized.
