As a point of law, or a footnote in some romantic notion of fairness, the killing of Awlaki was wrong.
You could argue that he never picked up a gun and shot somebody, never strapped on vest and blew something up. He merely "counseled" people. He was al-Qaeda's Charlie Manson, (he never killed anybody either). The thing is, he joined the other team. Citizen or not, if you declare war on your own country, I don't see how you can claim the protection of that country's laws. The man was a self proclaimed terrorist, and there was no doubt of his intentions, yet some of you want to hold him up as an "American". Some things are wrong on principle, yet right in practicality. Anwar Awlaki was, in part, responsible for the events that led up to TSA agents feeling up your junk at airports. As far as I'm concerned, that's reason enough to bomb the prick. Fuck him. American or not, I'm glad he's dead. JC |
I think his death sets a bad president

Zoomie, this is not really a precedent. "We", have killed plenty of Americans without due process.
At least this time we killed one we can feel good about. I hate ferret faced motherfuckers like him, much more than I do the actual shooters/bombers. Asshole sits there with a web cam, and tells everybody else that THEY should go die. Cowardly piece of shit, you go first if it's such a great idea. Look on the bright side, we didn't torture him.
