It depends, there are some things you have to do to legally renounce your US citizenship. If he did those things then he was no longer a citizen. If he didn't then he was still a citizen as far as the law is concerned.

Its bizarre how certain leftists *imagineer* technicalities for every situation they would scream "WAR CRIME!!!" over, if a Republican were president, which magically makes that same thing "heroic" when a Democrat does it... Hows that "liberate Libya" thing coming along anyway, boys... quote: ORIGINAL: DomKen quote: ORIGINAL: Politesub53 ~FR~ As Alwaki had renounced his US citizenship, how does he stand legally ?

quote: Well... except... one can hardly be apprehended by a drone and it's senseless to waste the cream of American troops on a faux firefight Unless I read the reports wrong there were special forces in Ospreys onsite and available along with carrier based fighter bombers. It does not seem much of a risk to me with that kind of support to at least make an attempt at capture...even if only a loudspeaker demand to stop... then fire away. The point is not the actual operation but how it is reported... It is down right stupid and incompetent not to of made an attempt no matter how weak before killing him...Under no circumstances can we kill citizens without a trial… Would you stand behind your local police force if they took it upon themselves to be judge jury and executioner. Now if in trying to appended a suspect and they resist arrest then a police force or our arm forces can and should use deadly force. Just damn common sense. What the hell is wrong with Obama and his advisors? Butch

Are you denying that if someone wants to renounce their US citizenship there is a legal way to do so? http://travel.state.gov/law/citizenship/citizenship_776.html

What, you mean like all of these Republicans who are throwing shitfits over a Kenyan Democrat carrying on in exactly the same fashion as the last Republican to run the country did? If you want to complain about partisan cognitive dissonance, you should probably address that one as well...

Or maybe... he is wondering why the same people who threw a shit fit over the "same fashion as the last Republican to run the country" seem to give the current a pass.

Lucylastic -> RE: TERROR - US Two U.S.-Born Terrorists Killed in CIA-Led Drone Strike (10/1/2011 1:38:04 PM)
unfortunately the last president didnt capture nearly half as many terrorist leaders as this one has done.. he lost interest didnt he... I guess finishing off the job his daddy should have done was good tho!!!! This one has deported almost as many illegal immigrants as bush let in.... The republican party became the party of no, WHY?? it wasnt because they tried to be interested in the people of the USA but because they have fought against EVERYTHING to deny that the divisions are down to just "him" are idiotic.

Sorry, Lucy, but absolute numbers and as a percentage of GDP might show something entirely different. Firm

Well yeah, that and which party had control of the House...

If you have got something different Firm..from treasury figures, please go ahead.

I'm sorry I ust have missed some news. When did the Obama administration start torturing people? When did the Obama administration invade a country that had never attacked us on trumped up reasons? When did Obama declare that he didn't really care where OBL was? When did the Obama administration try and deny people in its custody their most basic constitutional right?

You also forget I have often posted Bush was right to go after terrorists and invade Afghanistan. Then again, taking in what you read never was your strongpoint.

quote: ORIGINAL: FirmhandKY Does torture cause terrorism? No. quote: I did not say that it might not encourage it. It's just not the penultimate cause of it. Firm Semantics Firm. The torture of terrorists causes more terrorism, by the fact it acts as a recruiting agent. The question you posed wasnt what is the main cause of terrorism, but does torture cause terrorism. History shows it clearly does, since it acts as a rallying flag.

Iraq never attacked us and the invasion was based on trumped up reasons. Bush did quite famously say he did not care where OBL was and was not spending any time trying to find him. Obama used our national security apparatus to find and kill OBL. It required a distinct change in policy from GWB's to do so. How precisely did the Obama administration deny those two men a right they could only be afforded if they were in the custody of the US or a state or local government? How precisely were those two denied anything guaranteed in the US Constitution.

If you think the United States has not used enhanced interrogation techniques since President Obama came into office you are beyond naive. The United Nations authorized the invasion of Iraq and Congress went along with it as well... You might want the reasons to be trumped up but your reasoning has more to do with your political views. Your next line is just pure political pap. A United States citizen may renounce their citizenship, but they are incapable of renouncing their legal rights, especially their inalienable ones. They have them whether they want them or not and even in a foreign country, even when subjected to foreign laws.

Got any evidence for this claim? quote: The United Nations authorized the invasion of Iraq and Congress went along with it as well... You might want the reasons to be trumped up but your reasoning has more to do with your political views. Are you still under the belief that GWB and his handlers believed there were WMD's in Iraq? You need to read the Downing Street memos. quote: Your next line is just pure political pap. A United States citizen may renounce their citizenship, but they are incapable of renouncing their legal rights, especially their inalienable ones. They have them whether they want them or not and even in a foreign country, even when subjected to foreign laws. The discussion was of constitutional rights which do not apply to people not in the US or under the control of the US government.
