Re: EXCLUSIVE: Justice Department memo reveals legal case for drone strikes on Americ
Just to point out. Warning Americans that the government cannot guarantee their safety =/= warning Americans that their own government might decide to kill them.
I feel like I'm missing something here?
Even if he wasn't partaking in any terrorist activities, the US had been warning people for that entire year to leave Yemen to not go into Yemen because we could no longer ensure their safety there. Al-Alwaki's son was killed after that so unless there's evidence that he was clearly a target of the strike then the US is not at fault for his death.
