Journal Journal: Kill 'em with cancer 3

A little slower than a drone or navy SEAL attack or a coup, but every bit as effective ,and of course, plausible deniability is an easy pull.

Journal Journal: The Man He Killed - By Thomas Hardy 2

Had he and I but met
By some old ancient inn,
We should have set us down to wet
Right many a nipperkin!

But ranged as infantry,
And staring face to face,
I shot at him as he at me,
And killed him in his place.

I shot him dead because--
Because he was my foe,
Just so: my foe of course he was;
That's clear enough; although

He thought he'd 'list, perhaps,
Off-hand like--just as I--
Was out of work--had sold his traps--
No other reason why.

Yes; quaint and curious war is!
You shoot a fellow down
You'd treat, if met where any bar is,
Or help to half a crown.

He sank your battleship. I sure have nothing to add.

Journal Journal: Gangland Style 1

So, what's your gang affiliation? Everybody has one. There is no other way.
Question was inspired by this
...violence is a tool of statecraft. What, after all, is a drone strike if not a drive-by shooting? In either case, obscure intelligence suggests that some person who may or may not be whom someone thinks he is and may or may not be affiliated with a group with whom we are currently in something like conflict may or may not be at a certain place at a certain time, and so we shoot in that general direction, and whomever we hit should've known better, been elsewhere, been someone else, had a better father.
