US 'still opposes' targeted killings
The United States has said it still opposes Israel's policy of targeted assassinations, despite its apparent use of the same tactic to kill six al-Qaeda suspects in Yemen on Sunday. "Our policy on targeted killings in the Israeli-Palestinian context has not changed," US State Department spokesman Richard Boucher said. Mr Boucher refused to talk about the Yemen attack, but said that Washington's reasons for opposing the targeted killings of Palestinians might not apply in other circumstances.
