Under any circumstances? I don't know the details of this latest killing, but your policy seems like it would unreasonably shackle our counter-terrorism efforts. I assume that you would not oppose the extra-judicial killing of an American citizen who is wearing a uniform and fighting against us in a war (declared or otherwise). Is that true? If so, where and how would you draw the line between permissible and impermissible extra-judicial killing?
