Kill his family destroy his wealth, attack his health.

2) Satan is the ruler of this world, as such death as the direct result of sin can easily attributed to him.

3)True, but the OP is about speaking as satan speaks, and the three examples found in the OP have roots directly tied to scripture.

Then god is not all powerful to do anything in this world then if satan owns it.
Could Satan do whatever he wanted to do to Job before God removed his protective 'hedge' from him?

Let's say you own land. and you want to build a house on 'your land.' Are you so foolish to think that you can just build whatever you want without having to answer to a 'higher power?' in your case that higher power being the zoning commission and code enforcement. (You can not build a house on land that you own unless you have the proper permits from zonning and code enforcement or the government will tear it down.)

Like wise Satan does not have full authority over what he 'owns' He must still (per the story of Job and his own interactions with Christ) must yield to what ever the will of God is.
