And we couldn’t even try Awliki in absentia? Yemen apparently managed that much, at least. Get some evidence, run it by a judge and jury, and get your death sentence if warranted. Then carry it out with drones or whatever. It shouldn’t be hard to do.

I agree that the drones aren’t going to be flying like mayflies in the US, but the idea that in a basically perpetual war, enemies of the state can be put onto a kill list without judicial oversight is a problem.
