"Murder as Policy": Death Toll Tops 200 in U.S. Strikes on Latin American Boats



More than 200 people have now been killed in U.S. military strikes on boats in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific. Since September, the Pentagon has struck more than 60 vessels, claiming, without evidence, that the boats were engaged in "narco-trafficking" operations. Human rights groups have roundly condemned the attacks as extrajudicial killings.
