Speakeasy forum: More of BO's overreach of authority

is the wording.......Supreme Court "who is a PART of enemy forces"

vs

BO's wording of "SUSPICION" being enough 'proof' to kill them.

regarding the 'man whose picture was in the article' has exactly what to do with your other statement that was an actual quote that you bolded?

What if an American student journalist goes overseas in order to get a 'scoop' by interviewing terrorists? Happens all the time with people who want to make a name for themselves, including that one guy who kept going back and forth to Afghanistan to find and kill OBL, remember him? He was a private citizen on a mission but wasn't himself a terrorist......but obviously he would have had to have contact with SOME elements in order to get information regarding location and hangouts, etc. Would HE be considered to be a target for a drone attack because he was 'hanging with terrorists'?

This administration's own memo states that BO's people would only have to SUSPECT them of an action.....

Whereas with Bush, good people were forced to resign over three....count them....three waterboarding events that gleaned valuable information in finally getting to OBL. BO has already droned three Americans, KILLING them. Nobody died during the waterboarding.......can't say that about BO's policies.

I have no problem with killing Americans who have been PROVEN to be terrorists via intel (which usually means infiltrating a cell by covert ops or capturing someone else who can prove it)........any American who has practiced any terrorist activity against the US deserves to die by any means we can come up with (just like the Ft Hood killer) even without a trial. I have a problem with the "I THINK you are, so I'm gonna kill you" attitude and now written policy. I'd be very interested in seeing BO's kill list exposed finally........he's conveniently forgotten that he was supposed to produce that since the Congressional Hearing committee requested it long ago.

Dictionary: SUSPECTS:

1. Believe guilty
2. believe to be guilty
3. Hold in suspicion;

"Suspect" is a noun, "To Suspect" is a verb and their meanings are quite separate in their usage from the adjective "Suspicion" particularly in Law.

It's usage in legal parlance is different too. You want to learn that difference, go to Law School.

Rob

Like one or more reputed to be in Algeria?

got it.

while living in Canada and constantly go off about US matters and politics and so forth, deliberately and personally insult participants on a regular basis, and when something involving Canada or their citizens is validly mentioned, your thin skin can't take it whatsoever.

......managed to get an interview with bin Laden in 1996. You can probably find it on YouTube. He's also told the story of what he had to do to get to wherever OBL was at the time -- blindfolded in a car, etc.

Miller took a lot of high risk assignments. He did so many stories on John Gotti that he had to hire a bodyguard.

how BO controls the press.......if BO hadn't had him killed, they could have been best of buds.

but with this president, it's only a matter of time.......the bad guys are getting bolder and bolder outside of the USA against us. You think they won't make another attempt here in the next four years with a weak opponent who stays disconnected to his own national security and leaves it all up to underlings?

...set it up where they all have equal chance to hate and kill each other instead?

is BO's overreach and hypocrisy........Bush was immoral and overreached according to BO when he was running for office because Bush ok'd waterboarding in three instances (and nobody died).....but BO can kill Americans using drones (four times already) under a suspicion that they are terrorists.

AND....I guess you are in line with BO's 'work related incident' and not a terror attack when it came to the Ft. Hood mass killings, even though the killer was chanting "Allah whatever" while pulling that trigger. AND.......aren't our embassies and consulates considered to be US SOIL?

being or not being an actual terrorist attack?

How many died during Embassy or Consulate attacks during the Bush Administration compared to BO's? How many were denied protection or had their existing protection pulled during Bush?
