'NYT' Demands Obama Reveal 'Kill' Rules

Editorial today states their glad the White House may be "codifying" its rules on killing folks abroad via drones and whatnot but they need to release them when completed.
Mr. Obama has acknowledged the need for a “legal architecture” to be put in place “to make sure that not only am I reined in but any president’s reined in.” Yet his administration has resisted legal efforts by The Times and the American Civil Liberties Union to make public its secret legal opinions on these killings. Once the rules are completed, they should be shown to a world skeptical of countries that use deadly force without explanation.
