Why I keep talking about crimes against humanity

There is no nexus to an armed conflict, so the murders are not war crimes. But the killings may yet amount to *another* atrocity crime:
As US strikes on fishing boats grow more widespread and systematic, there is a growing case these killings amount to murder, as a crime against humanity.
