When those actions take the situation out of the realm of domestic law and into the realm of war. We didn’t try to arrest the Japanese forces defending Iwo Jima. The situation had, shall we say, escalated beyond the reach of the relatively polite exercise of force that law enforcement has at its disposal.

Right, but it’s unclear whether he would have had access to a fair trial even had he turned himself in. That’s really my question - say you get put on this list, for whatever reason. What recourse do you have?
