The unitary unilateral war on “narco-terrorism”

Source: Responsible Statecraft
by Mark Thompson

“As though he were Zeus unleashing lightning bolts, President Donald Trump announced on September 19 the unilateral destruction of a third boat in the Caribbean suspected of carrying illegal drugs destined for the U.S. It followed similar strikes announced September 2 and September 15. Trump declared the attacks had killed 17 ‘narcoterrorists.’ What’s peculiar about these attacks is that they’re being revealed by the president himself, on his Truth Social account. … These are plainly extra-judicial killings carried out ‘on my Orders,’ as Trump said in all three posts (perhaps he thinks capitalizing “Orders” makes them legal).” (09/25/25)
