The White House Press Secretary, Jay carney, responded today to the leaked Justice Department memo which states that the U.S. Government can use drones to kill Americans.
According to an article on Talking Points Memo, The White House believes that it’s not only legal to kill Americans with drones, but ethical as well:
“These strikes are legal, they are ethical and they are wise,” Carney said. The government takes “great care” when deciding where and whom to strike, he added.
