Awlaki was an enemy combatant as far as I am concerned and could have been whacked at will anywhere outside the US by US forces, but why hide “the memo” that provides the constitutional protections against frivolous determinations by the President that any Joe Blow is an enemy combatant?
“Trust but verify” is needed, not “Trust me”!
Don’t you have to be in combat to be a combatant? You know, like on a battlefield or something? Wasn’t this just a guy saying stuff somewhere outside the US?
