Cia-LicenseToKill

From 911Encyclopedia:

Described by Village Voice's Nat Henthoff (->) as "shadow Constitution". Since 2002, the CIA is officially authorized to kill, if capture is impractical and civilian casualties can be minimized. In December 2002, the CIA fired a Hellfire antitank missile" at a car in a remote region of Yemen, killing six, including an "Al Qaeda leader", Salim Sinan al-Harethi, and "one suspected al-Qaeda operative with United States citizenship." That dead American passenger was Kamal Derwish, who, according to the Bush administration, was the leader of an alleged cell of Al Qaeda sleepers in Lackawanna, a Buffalo, New York, suburb. http://www.villagevoice.com/issues/0308/hentoff.php
