The same logic applies to assassinations.

One sharpshooter, 1 gun and a $1.00 bullet can save thousands of lives in the battlefield or countless lives of civilians.

I know the reason we don't do it and the reason is that war is good for business. Just like the ACLU is good for the political and legal industry.

The time has come to spend $1.00 to save billions of dollars and countless lives, and to torture 1 to save thousands of lives.

Yes, you are right. Assassination is not something to be used lightly, but I was pleased that President Bush has used it, not against a head of state but against a few terrorist leaders that we know of.
