In this case, I can live with it. The man was a traitor and a butcher. And he was not just picked off while walking through Encino. He was conducting ops against us from abroad. Its war.

I get the implication. It would be nice if some people were consistent in their outlook. None the less, this was more than justified.

if this happened during the Bush years you would be calling for Bush to be impeached, turned over to the Hague and hung by the neck until dead.


I would have then (and do now) praise any president who takes the war to the bad guys.

I dont like Obama on many levels. I do like what he has done here.

A self-proclaimed enemy to the US who is not only encouraging attacks on US citizens but is also planning them? I'm good with killing him no matter who is president.

Actually it did. On September 29, 2004 the CIA using a Predator drone fired a Hellfire missile into a car occupied by Abu Ali al-Harithi, a suspected planner of the bombing plot. In the vehicle was Ahmed Hijazi, a U.S. citizen. Both were killed.

He was a citizen of Yemen at the time of his death, not the United States.
