re: Killing people who are not attacking you or your countrymen is MURDER and anti-Christ

The UCMJ is not the controlling law on this issue

If UCMJ is not, than US Code? Where in US Code is assassination allowed?

For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. [2] Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves.

So much free wheeling, out of context Biblical interpretation going on here.

So resisting the Nazi govt was wrong and brought judgement on oneself from God? How about the govt of the USSR by Orthodox dissidents? Stop taking St. Paul’s words out of context based on what Pastor Bobby Ray said it means.

These drug smugglers are bringing in product that kills and ruining peoples lives. I say stop product coming in any way possible.

Ambrose Letter 25 Augustine City of God 5,24 and Letter 134,4 Clement of Alexandria Stromata 1:27 Thomas Aquinas ST II-II Q64, Part. 2

---

St Ambrose letter was encouragement to a Judge re: a criminal convicted under the LAW.

St. Clement’s letter was re: proper application of the LAW.

Thomas Aquinas the LAWyer also discussed same.

This discussion is about murdering folks neither charged, arrested, nor tried under any US LAW.

Hey dude, pay close attention if able…I am not an Obama supporter nor a supporter of any govt official who commits lawless acts. Period.

On reading about this, it is obvious Obama’s DOJ did some evil mental gymnastics to get him and military CoC from being charged.

I cited Federal statutes as they are the ONLY laws we have re: drug crimes…that includes interdictions OUTSIDE of territorial waters aka “high seas” by USCG.

So before you conflate the difference, know what you’re talking about.

---

It's my understanding that those statutes do not apply to military-style attacks on foreign agents or enemies, though.

If the USCG captures someone in a drug bust, they have to take them ashore and try them in a US court using due process, but due process doesn't apply in military-style engagements. For instance, even in a typical drug bust, the USCG doesn't need a warrant or probable cause to board a vessel in open seas like a police officer might need in pulling someone over on the road or searching someone's house.

So, the federal statues don't apply in the same way you are trying to make them apply here, so I don't understand why you cited them. Even if there are no other specific laws that pertain to the situation, citing federal statutes is also irrelevant, as I understand it.

Please cite in New Testament where Christians are told to “wage just war”

---

It's derived from the teaching of the totality of Scriptures, not from a singular overt command. If you'd like for me to defend it, I can do that, but I'll just say that it seems that you are lacking in some fundamental understandings of how Christian doctrine works, so I'm afraid I'll have to do more than just provide biblical warrant. I'll have to discuss how doctrine is derived from Scripture, both in direct command within context, as well as from good and necessary consequence of other commands and teachings.

…funny coming from a Calvinist citing Roman Catholic doctrine.

---

Just war isn't "Roman Catholic" any more than the Trinity is "Roman Catholic". It's biblical, and therefore I'm happy to believe it even if Rome also teaches it.

I think you have another fundamental misunderstanding: why Protestants disagree with Catholics where they do.

Never said that. You can’t even define what a narco terrorist is. Get off FoxNews and think for yourself.

This is Augustine (I realize it's not the NT):
They who have waged war in obedience to the divine command, or in conformity with His laws, have represented in their persons the public justice or the wisdom of government, and in this capacity have put to death wicked men; such persons have by no means violated the commandment ‘Thou shalt not kill’
