>From Glenn Greenwald today:<br><br>"But this is one of the towering, unanswerable <a target="_blank" href="http://opiniojuris.org/2010/02/06/are-obamas-assassinations-of-us-citizens-constitutional/">hypocrisies</a> of Democratic Party politics. The very same faction that pretended for years to be so distraught by Bush’s mere <strong>eavesdropping on</strong> and <strong>detention of</strong> accused Terrorists without due process is now perfectly content to have their own President <strong>kill</strong>
accused Terrorists without due process, even when those targeted are
their fellow citizens: obviously a far more Draconian and permanent
abuse than eavesdropping or detention (identically, the very same
faction that objected to Bush’s radical<em> whole-world-is-a-Battlefield</em> theory
now must embrace exactly that theory to justify how someone riding in a
car, or sitting at home, or sleeping in his bed, in a country where no
war is declared, is “on a battlefield” at the time the CIA ends his
life)."<br><br>Entire column:<br><br>http://www.salon.com/2012/01/30/leon_panettas_explicitly_authoritarian_decree/singleton/<br><br>Sunil<br> </div></body>
