Dateline - Washington DC
Today it was revealed that an Obama Administration Justice Department confidential memo states that the killing of American citizens, including by drone attacks, is legal - if an “informed, high-level” official of the U.S. government has determined that the targeted American has been “recently” involved in “activities” posing a threat of a violent attack and “there is no evidence suggesting that he has renounced or abandoned such activities.” The memo does not define “recently” or “activities.”
Combined with the National Defense Authorization Act of 2012 (NDAA), which allows the [size=-1]Armed Forces to engage in civilian law enforcement and to selectively suspend due process and habeas corpus as well as other rights guaranteed by the 5th and 6th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution, and the recent purchase of [size=-1]approximately 2 billion rounds of hollow point ammunition by the Department of Homelan[size=-1]d Security, one can only agree with Alice that "it gets curiouser and curiouser"[size=-1].
