You've made the mistake of thinking that this is about killing members of a drug cartel instead of killing people they decide to accuse of being members of a drug cartel

Whether those people on the boat were members of a cartel or not is not the point, it already is piracy and a war crime.

My point is that the stated ultimate goal is to fight drug cartels, and that would hit certain circles the hardest. Especially with cocaine, which is a drug predominantly used in richer circles.
