British jihadists killed in RAF drone strike

To quote someone fairly high up with maybe a little more knowledge than you of the subject:

"My first duty as Prime Minister is to keep the British people safe. That is what I will always do. There was a terrorist directing murder in our streets and no other means to stop them. But I am not prepared to stand here in the aftermath of a terrorist attack on our streets and have to explain why I did not take the chance to prevent it when I could have done."

I look forward to him sharing that knowledge, if he does not on national security grounds, then it's just his word.
 
Not sure "criminal organisations" is what you meant, but even if you did, crimes have to be commited within your jurisdiction for justice to be done.

As for "not really fussed", not this time maybe, but if we don't know what the legal justification was from the Solicitor General then what next? Popping radioactive poison in to some guys coffe because we consider him an enemy of the State? We take a rather dim view of that sort of thing, at least when it's done on our soil by agents of another country.
Like I said you make some fair and valid points and agree with you, but given the nature of these two I am not bothered, they relinquished their citizenship when they went to fight with ISIS

Does that include keeping our children 'safe' from the pedos?

This is absolutely the point. What is he supposed to do? We're pretty tolerant as a nation, but where do you draw the line?

I would imagine that the overwhelming majority in the UK will endorse these actions.
 
I put national security higher than your insecurities in my list of things I care about.

You are getting very wound up, relax and take a pill.

A lot of things are done in the name of national security, but these two British citizens were killed overseas in the name of national security, we take a dim view of that sort of thing when it is done by other countries, so we now need to know what that "real and present danger" was, if we are not told what it was then it is a matter of trust.
 
How do we hold them to law when they've illegally joined a terrorist organisation overseas?

If it wasn't for the cunts like ISIS in Syria, then little babies wouldn't be washing up on European shores.

This.

God the left can be fucking pathetic at times.
