John Rizzo who served as the US acting general counsel for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), is being pursued by UK and Pakistan human rights lawyers seeking an arrest warrant after he admitted approving drone attacks inside Pakistan. Rizzo has acknowledged that a list of targeted people had been prepared, and the predator drone was the weapon of choice. Although not at war with Pakistan, Rizzo personally approved monthly attacks within Pakistan on selected targets, a breach of international law. The assassination of the targets with indiscriminate drone weaponry creates extensive collateral damage and deaths to civilian women and children. The use of drones has increased fourfold under the Obama administration with estimates in excess of 2000 having been killed in Pakistan alone since 2004, clearly an ongoing crime against humanity.
