So here is something I don’t understand - how is that the dismembering a group of “suspected militants” via a remotely piloted drone over foreign soil where no declaration of war exists meets “constitutional standards” while belly slapping known terrorists at a US facility in Cuba is an unconstitutional act and cause for national shame?

I was recently lectured on my jingoism and predilection for fascism by LVQ and others because I didn’t subscribe to the notion that the existence of our detention facility at Gitmo stains America’s purity, nor do I agree that waterboarding and other such infrequently used EITS are torture. Then there were the lectures on due process.

Question for the morally pure out there - What due process does a non-combatant in a country who is not at war with the US receive when a hellfire missile kills him and any other bystanders who happened to be near him?
