11. "...unless there is explicit intelligence posthumously proving them innocent."

One of the most outrageous things I've ever read. This is fucking shameful to say the least. Had the name in the above post been Bush rather than Obama, this place would be positively boiling right now.

How big is a "strike zone"? How old is "military-age"? We are not fighting a uniformed military force so the term "military-age" isn't even pertinent to the conversation. Not pertinent at all. Is there such a thing as "terrorist-age"? I wonder what that would be... old enough to be strong enough to hold a gun? Old enough to wear an explosive belt?

Posthumously proving them innocent. Wrap your mind around that, if you can. I can't. I'm sure this admistration leaves no stone unturned in their effort to "posthumously find them innocent". No stone unturned.

A "top national security lawyer under the Bush administration" supports this. How quaint.
