Not just the leaders, not just those with the most power. Everyone.

No arrests, no lawyers, no fair trials. Just kill anyone and everyone the Israeli government has decided is worthy of it.

Don't get me wrong, I think the "collateral damage" is a) disgusting and b) deliberate.

He shakes the hands of the accidental heroes; his appreciation is sincere, however uncouth he finds the pomp and circumstance. He offers his condolences to the last princess of Alderaan, and spares a thought to wonder at the hero the senator’s been quietly raising and what she might become. And then he leaves to do the task he’s been putting aside, shuffling it beneath more pressing concerns and contemplations of their collective doom, until now –

Now, he ventures into the labyrinth of passages the residents of the Yavin 4 base carved aside to forge something called home, and winds himself around to a doorstep he’s never before had reason to haunt. Its occupant only retreating to concede to the need for sleep at the utmost last moment; unwilling to rest idle, lest the ghosts of his past start to move in and make themselves comfortable.

Draven feels like the ghost now, his life a mockery in light of this one snuffed out too soon, too young, too stubborn.

He turns the corner, finds the door open already, and discovers he is not the only ghost haunting what little remains of Cassian Andor.
