White House reportedly struggling to target US citizen with drone attack

He's been responsible for deadly attacks against Americans but Obama can't decide if he is worth taking out??? I guess they went through the same considerations about the consulate in Libya. I can see it now: Obama sitting in the back corner of the Situation Room, rubbing his hands together, whining about, "Well, I don't know what we should do, what if? what if? what if?" The President has the backbone of a dish rag.

“..who is a member of Al Qaeda..”

Speaks for itself, doesn’t it??

Simple answer: Target the terrorist standing next to him. He is then “collateral damage” and we can say how sorry we are he dies.
They tend to make things a lot harder than they need too.

I know simplistic answer. But this guy actively plots to kill American citizens, would like to overthrow our government and install a caliphate, kill Americans. And hides in a third world country to do all this and doesn’t want to expose himself to danger? Really does sound like an islamic terrorist leader. Kill him and don’t worry about the fallout.

The moment that Muslim, whoever he is, decided to plan attacks against Americans, he ceased to be an American.

I am highly suspicious of this public hand-wringing by our Socialist leader. He is up to something.

Why the Hell is this a national news story???? Can anyone keep their freaking mouths shut??

Let's set a precedent where the government can kill a US citizen in anothen country without going through the judicial process, and then let's lower the bar to let the government kill anyone whom they claim is a "terrorist" any time any place again without due process. After all it's to keep the children safe. Monumentally bad idea.

Which is the greater risk, some supposed terrorist or the entire US government with due process gradually removed?

Can you say trial ballon to test public opinion?

Agreed. The most corrupt leader in our history is afraid to kill a terrorist who has threatened us because of policy??

Germans and Italians who were American citizens fought in the Axis armies. They were slaughtered without any tears or reservations. Same logic applies.

[Little Ray]

Doesn’t matter if he is a “US citizen.” He should have the same chance to die as every other member of Al Qaeda.

I hope it is soon and I hope it hurts.

[Arrowhead1952]

An American citizen who is a member of Al Qaeda and friend of 0 bummer is actively planning attacks against Americans overseas, U.S. officials say, and the Obama administration is wrestling with whether to kill him with a drone strike and how to do so legally under its new stricter targeting policy issued last year.

0 is hoping there are strikes against US citizens worldwide. Probably gave him the go ahead as well. Disgusting POS.

Am I the only one here who finds this disturbing?

Soebarkah must kill the remaining Benghazi witnesses/participants.

Is this the same al-qaeda that Obama/McCain keep supplying w guns/Stingers?

Correction:

The President has the backbone of a TOWELIE.

Why the Hell is this a national news story????

To keep you distracted from the truth.

Can anyone keep their freaking mouths shut??

Can't make any money that way. Heck, they are being spoon fed the story by the White House, it's not as if it's a secret or even new. Barry just wants you to think he's struggling with the 'legality' of his drone use.

He's not. He's using the 'legality' issue to cover for why he hasn't used the drone on this guy already.

[Free Vulcan]

Yep. That’s why Justice is dragging it’s feet. It doesn’t want to do the due diligence because it wants to set the precedent, and slide it all under the rug.

Then old Joe Wysyzofbnyk, humble retired plumber from Skokie IL is now a terrorist because he’s a big property rights guy that fights predatory zoning and EPA land grabs.

[ßuddaßudd]

Propaganda and disinformation to to see raises their head and wiggles . .

You mean because Obama is trying to establish a legal precedence ? Once it's legal for him to target a U.S. Citizen, then....?
