Not once he becomes an enemy combatant.

Ding. Ding. Ding. IMHO, if done within an armed conflict authorized by Congress, the morality or legality of such action can be based on the same reasoning as the 'Just War' doctrine. This targeted bomb is a part of the shooting in contemporary warfare and if you are on the wrong side of the fight, regardless of your citizenship, you've forfeited any "special handling". You don't get a Miranda warning in a war.

Exactly...
Wouldn’t it be the same type of thing on a smaller scale,
if someone attacks me in my home - I wouldn’t read them
Miranda rights - the warning and the attacker would be
blasted right out the window...
