Is it legal for Bill Gates to hire a foreign ambassador to kill a terrorist for him?
<p>Is it legal for Bill Gates to hire a foreign ambassador (for example, the Prime Minister of Kazakhstan) to kill a terrorist for him?</p>

<p>For example, the terrorist could actually be trying to kill his family, maybe the Russian Prime Minister, or a dissident lawyer in Russia.</p>

<p>No.  It is illegal to hire someone to kill someone else.  Even if the killer enjoys diplomatic immunity, the person hiring the killer has committed a crime.</p>

<p>As to your last paragraph, that is properly a separate question, but the answer is that they can't do it because murder is illegal.</p>
