A recent Reuters/Ipsos poll reveals that only 29% of Americans support U.S. military actions resulting in the deaths of drug suspects, amidst a backdrop of escalating military operations targeting alleged drug trafficking boats in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific. The U.S. has conducted its 20th strike in three months, resulting in significant civilian casualties, with reports indicating a total death toll exceeding 80. This ongoing campaign, endorsed by the Trump administration, has sparked calls for legal scrutiny, as military personnel seek advice on the legality of these operations. A controversial Justice Department memo claims that strikes are justified under the premise of targeting drugs rather than individuals, though legal experts question this stance. Meanwhile, families of victims are demanding justice, further complicating an already fraught policy landscape as opposition to these military strikes intensifies among the U.S. populace.
