    I'm sorry what? What do you think the US was doing in Afghanistan for 20 years. The US loves an extrajudicial killing.

    The Taliban have achieved this by offering better prices for food crops, which is what they need due to us sanctions. So it turns out that the us did have the power all along.

    Also, that's another thing the us likes to do, starve countries that don't dance to their tune.

      Your first paragraph makes it clear you don't understand what extrajudicial means. Is there any point in reading past there?

        Aren't you the one saying that an order an executive branch to murder isn't an extrajudicial killing?

        Extrajudicial means a killing without a legal ruling, what do you thing it means? The taleban executing someone isn't extrajudicial, because the government of Afghanistan (the taleban) has ruled that it isn't. Notice how legality in no way informs morality. Also the United States killed a shitton of people extrajudiciously in Afghanistan.
