OK, this makes it even worse. Bit like the nonexistent WMD in Iraq. How many Iraqis had to die for that.
But it wouldn't heave been OK if the boat was on its way to the USA, either. Even if it was loaded with "drugs", with intent to sell.

Just want to point out that going to Suriname is going the wrong direction if you are trying to reach the USA. Also even IF the boat had drugs and IF it was destined for the USA, it seems like this would be a job for a coast guard vessel to intercept and arrest the smugglers. Just executing random people in the ocean because they might be smugglers is murder.
This might be obvious to you dear reader but I feel like we need to say these things loudly and often.
To be perfectly fair this ain't that different to the various drone aided bombings of civilians in the Middle East.
The US is just continuing some habitual military-sanctioned murder slightly closer to home.
And bragging about it again
We the people need to get control of our country back.
meanwhile the rest of the world reading this: Yeah that ain't happening.
That's not how America works, sadly.
Suriname?
Since when has being wrong ever prevented the US military from acting?
Could have ended up in the US. Could have! That's all he fucking needs.
