The West is shredding its values in the name of security as nuclear scientists, terrorism suspects and alleged militants in distant lands are killed with impunity State-sponsored killing is just murder by another name
Mehdi Hasan

I think he is right. I also think that in international relations, especially in war, if one side does not play by the rules (does Iran? Do the Jihadis? Do the Palestinian Arabs?) then the other side cannot play by the rules either. Unless of course they want to lose the war. And I suspect that writers like Mehdi Hassan want the West to lose the war against the Jihadis and the rest. And so does the Guardian.

I also think that since they complain, then this type of action must be hurting them. So guess what should be done?
