| Title | Intersections: Lethal Targeted Killings and the Right to Life - A Case study of Kenya, Israel, and the United States of America |
| Summary | The purpose of this thesis is to interrogate the legality of targeted killings in international law; and to assess whether targeted killings breach the international law protection of the right to life from arbitrary deprivation. It is argued that although targeted killings can be legally justified, under the law enforcement and armed conflict paradigm, the danger with targeted killings lies in the threat that this practice poses to the right the right to life especially in non-international armed conflicts. |
