My comment :-
If this statement is true (from the above article)
"Brennan is reported to favor a more restrained drone war while liberal critics will seek disclosure of the legal justification for the extra-judicial assassination of U.S. citizens suspected of terrorism."
Why has Brennan remained as Obama's chief counter terrorism adviser when drone strikes have been ramped up by 10 times under Obama?
If Brennan disagreed with the policy his position would of been untenable and he would have been replaced.
It is far more likely that Brennan is the architect of the policy to massively ramp up drone strikes and also that he is supportive of, if not the architect of, the double tap drone strike policy.
It also seems likely that Brennan is also supportive of the policy of giving the CIA many more drones in the near future.
I also commented on the main theme of the article about the JFK assassination. But this was immediately removed as well.
It was similar to this one but with less info
