Friday Interview: Legal and Policy Questions Linked to ‘Killing By Drone’
RALEIGH — Advances in military technology have made it easier for the United States to use unmanned drone aircraft to target enemies. While so-called “killing by drone” is certainly safer for the American military, the practice raises important legal and policy questions. Scott Silliman, professor of the practice of law at Duke University Law School, director emeritus of the Center on Law, Ethics, and National Security, and a career Air Force attorney, addressed those questions earlier this year in a presentation to the John Locke Foundation’s Shaftesbury Society. Silliman also discussed the issue with Mitch Kokai for Carolina Journal Radio.
