Thanks for pointing that out. I was also pointing out an argument that goes along with what you were saying and pointing out how, for even those whom the law does apply to, it does not eliminate due process. So I do agree with you that this law should not necessarily be seen as a sort of move towards Nazi Germany or Maoist China. The law would allow someone to lose citizenship under sections 1-6 or 8-but ONLY if they actively decided not to invoke their due process.

I also note, this is basically the same thing as the Terrorist Expatriation Act introduced by Lieberman in 2010:

which means the TEA and EEA clearly werent designed specifically to cioncide with NDAA 2012. Incidentally, Lieberman’s bill still hasnt made it past the Congressional Committee and the EEA, which was introduced in Oct last year, hasnt made it past committee either. They could try to tack it onto NDAA, but since it ammends statute 1481, I am not sure how that would work.
