[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]United States Attorney General Eric Holder recently explained how the president can order the assassination of his own citizens abroad. But did his rationalization justify executions within the US? Apparently, the FBI wouldnââ¬â¢t exclude it.
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Responding to a congressional inquiry this week on the rationale of assassinating Americans, Federal Bureau of Investigation Director Robert Mueller affirmed that he himself isnââ¬â¢t too clear on the what Holder explained.
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]The attorney general addressed an audience at Northwestern University in Chicago this week with an explanation for US President Barack Obamaââ¬â¢s killing of three American citizens overseas last year. Alleged terrorist Anwar al-Awlaki and two other US-born citizens were executed in a drone strike last year in Yemen, a kill that the White House has been reluctant to discuss in detail until just recently. Speaking from Northwestern this week, Holder insisted, however, that the details the president acted on were sufficient under the Constitution for the United States to use lethal force against a US citizen abroad.
