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

      If you think extrajudicial murder means a killing done without an order from the government, and since the US sanctions its own killing they aren’t extrajudicial, shouldn’t that same logic apply equally to the Taliban? Surely the Taliban sanctions the killings done by the Taliban.

      Intrajudicial killings are when you blow up civili—I’m sorry, the “terrorists” with a huge number of drone strikes, am I right fellow liberal?

      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.
