If extra judicial killing is a criminal activity, on whose laws? The US doesn’t recognise the world court and has a veto at the UN.

After all other nations would never commit an ‘execution’ outside of their own borders, so clearly this is new.

You are implying that the US is an independent rogue nation, not answerable to any international authority.

After all other nations would never commit an ‘execution’ outside of their own borders, so clearly this is new.

It is not new because the US Government is not the only national entity that has carried out UN defined criminal activities including extra-judicial killing. What is new is that such crimes are now no longer hidden and committed in the open by the USA on behalf of Americans.

The characterization of the United States as a "rogue nation" is not a formal international classification but rather a significant, long-standing
criticism of U.S. foreign policy and domestic actions by various scholars, authors, and international critics. This perspective emerged largely in response to American unilateralism and actions perceived as being outside the bounds of international law and cooperation
