We Need a Debate on Drone Killings — Whether They Should Be Happening At All.

The legitimacy of targeted killing (assassination off the battlefield) is in question as well as that of the unintended victims.

The proposed autonomy agreement for areas of Mindanao in the Philippines may now never be ratified.

An autonomous zone for a specific ethnic group is sometimes a good way to resolve disputes — as long as human rights are protected.

In the Philippines, I was told that this proposed autonomous zone would be allowed to set its own definition of human rights. I fear this means trashing human rights in accord with Shari'a law, against women and against those who want to stop being Muslim. Thus, I do not regret the failure of this agreement. I hope they negotiate another agreement that respects the human rights of everyone in the autonomous zone, not only the males that want to be Muslims.
