The government apparently calls such attacks signature strikes
because the targets are identified based on intelligence “signatures”
that suggest involvement in terror plots or militant activity.
So what signatures does the U.S. look for and how much evidence is needed to justify a strike?
The Obama administration has never spoken publicly about
signature strikes. Instead, generally anonymous officials have offered
often vague examples of signatures. The resulting fragmentary picture
leaves many questions unanswered.
