Junaid Hussein Drone Strike, Twitter Propagandist Targeting
The U.S. military used a drone strike to kill Junaid Hussein, a 21-year-old British ISIS member described as a senior propagandist and leader of the "Cyber Caliphate." Some counterterrorism officials criticized the move as targeting "low-hanging fruit" rather than actual leadership. The discussion questions the ethics of droning individuals primarily for their social media activity.
