British Prime Minister David Cameron informed Parliament the government had launched a drone strike on August 21, which assassinated three people in Syria alleged to be Islamic State militants, including two British citizens.
The strike against British citizen Reyaad Khan, the “target of the strike,” was committed without approval from Parliament. British citizen Ruhul Amin, who was killed in the strike, was deemed an “associate” worthy of death.
Cameron admitted it was the first instance in the “War on Terrorism,” where the government had used a “British asset” to conduct a “strike in a country where Britain was not involved in a war.”

This is what "democracy" now looks like on an international scale - the two supposedly most wonderful bastions of democracy in the world now both have descended into the hell of high-tech cannibalism.
The entire world has been plunged into a Dark Age, and it wasn't Osama bin Laden, the Taliban, al-Qaeda, ISIS, or militant Islam that did it to us. It was the Five Eyes - US, UK, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand - who are responsible.
Update - This report points out that it was Israel which started the global trend of targeted assassination:

I would not argue with that claim, and I would add that the main reason the Five Eyes are following Israel's lead is their delusional belief that they (the Five Eyes nations) represent the Lost Tribes of Israel. Instead of doing what Jesus commanded us to do (i.e., to love one another as He loved us), they have decided to ignore the Gospels and jump to the end of the Book of Revelation so they can start the Battle of Armageddon as soon as possible.
Is that what G-d wants? I don't think so. But don't just believe me. Are they doing what Jesus said to do? The answer to that question is clearly NO.
Second Update - Here is an assessment which compares Britain's drone killings to tyranny, and I think it is spot on:

The same applies to US drone killings, but the American people seldom recognize tyranny when it rears its ugly head. If they acknowledge it at all, it is to embrace it.
