Assassination and the immunity theory Philosophia 33 (1-4): 129-147. 2005. This paper argues for a policy of assassination. Foreign leaders causing unjust wars forfeit their rights against being killed. Killing them also satisfies the conditions on defensive violence that accompany forfeiture (consider, for example, imminence, necessity, and proportionality). Assassination sometimes maximizes the good. In some cases, then, assassination is right and good.  https://philpeople.org/profiles/stephen-kershnar/publications?order=viewings
