US Continues To Blow Up Small Boats

A US military strike on May 4 killed two mariners in an alleged “narco boat” campaign which now has a cumulative death toll of at least 188. The pace of extrajudicial executions is ramping up, according to The Guardian. But why? The serial murders could be, as the Trump administration claims, a genuine counter-narcotics operation. Or Mr. Trump and company may be conducting a demonstration exercise of executive power. Alternatively, the “kinetic strikes” may reflect more domestic concerns or perhaps foreign policy issues. Another possibility is that the administration is intentionally cultivating an image of unpredictability associated with “madman theory” of deterrence.

Attacked And Kidnapped At Sea, Fishermen Allege US Involvement

An Ecuadorian fisherman made a shocking allegation in a recent report published by the newspaper Primicias. Erick Fabricio Coello Saltos claimed that he and 19 other fishermen were attacked on the high seas by drones and then kidnapped by a US vessel. According to his testimony, they were hooded, held in a sort of container, and transported for over a week to El Salvador. There, the Ecuadorian fishermen were handed over to local authorities who, after medical evaluations, kept them in a reception center until their deportation to Manta (costing their families nearly USD 400).
