You guys remember when these "targeted killings" were almost universally condemned by Europeans and the left (including on chat forums) because they were targeting people who were only trying to kill Israeli Jews? I believe the anti-Israel left's preferred propaganda term was "extra-judicial killings".

Don't suppose we should expect to see a similar level of outrage for killing this monster, even though he wasn't worse than Palestinians who were building bombs and sending them into pizza restaurants and discos or ambushing and executing civilians?

'Jihadi John' Believed Killed in US Drone Strike, US Officials Say - ABC News

The ISIS terrorist dubbed "Jihadi John", who oversaw the brutal executions of American and Western hostages, was hit by a U.S. air strike Thursday night and is believed to have been killed, U.S. officials told ABC News.

One official said the jihadist, Mohammed Emwazi, was thought to be hit as he left a building in Raqqa, Syria, and entered a vehicle. The official called it a "flawless" and “clean hit” with no collateral damage and that Emwazi basically "evaporated."
