US does it as well I am certain... you don't train assassins to just sit and wait for war... there isn't a government yet who doesn't or wouldn't do it. You are being naive.

I have no problem with the US using assassins, they simply can't do it here. If you think that our government can be entrusted to "preemptively" kill people on American soil then I think you have a unhealthy perception of the competence of government employees.

I agree. GW should put Hans Blix in charge of investigating the matter and ferretting out these anti-alqaeda assassins. Then, in a couple of years, or maybe three, Condi Rice tells Hans Blix we aren't interested in his next report... "Don't bother." Then Hans Blix puts on his Superman suit, with an S&M collar around his neck, and captures them. The President upholds his sworn duty to uphold the Constitution. He simply makes a bad decision regarding who investigates. If Lincoln could get away with having McClellan as his general for so many years without being impeached, I suppose Bush could make this 'mistake'.
