Well, I think that is an extraordinary circumstance allowing the President to authorize the military to use lethal force within the territory of the United States. The scenario Holder presented involved terrorists acting within the United States in the aftermath of a catastrophic attack like 9/11. If they are located, is there a significant difference between dispatching a SWAT team to take them out rather than a drone?

Not all armed drones are operated by the Department of Defense.
