Is the Obama administration using targeted killing to assassinate people who might otherwise have been detained? In this episode of Up w/ Chris Hayes, Jeremy Scahill of The Nation Institute argues that President Obama is “running an assassination program,” and that killing innocents gives people a non-ideological reason to hate this country and to join the ranks of those fighting against it.
