You are innocently waiving your right to the most important legal protection you have and instead relying on 'not being accused.' When all it takes are accusations, you get the Salem witch trials,McCarthyism, internment camps and people using our criminal justice system to their own gain by accusing innocent people they disagree with...

Do you not understand that "our system of justice" does not apply in Yemen?

I understand my legal rights perfectly. I understand that when I leave the United States and enter a foreign country, American law does not apply.

An American citizen in a foreign country facing off the US military as an enemy combatant is not protected by the US Constitution. There is no trial, no attorneys, and no due process.

You know, it's not like this dead guy, American citizen or not, represents any great loss to civilization.

Moreover, dragging his sorry ass back here would have involved a million or more in legal costs (which the baggers would have then insisted be deducted from entitlements or some such), plus the likelihood of a few suicide bombers blowing themselves up here or there.

The really funny thing here is that I can remember when the online Republicans assumed that (then) President elect Obama would be "soft" on terrorism and they were all ready to pounce on his ass for that.
