Administration Missile Kills of U.S. Citizens WiIthout a Jury Trial is Threat to Security of Individual Civil RIghts

The Obama administration admitted recently that it had killed four U.S. citizens with air launched missile strikes intentionally or unintentionally. That admission to a policy letting the government kill citizens without a jury trial is onerous and anti-democratic. It's definitely a step in the wrong direction as far as classical liberal protection of individual civil liberties, and really not necessary as might Abraham Lincoln have argued in behalf of his largest ever public hanging of first citizens for a reservation revolt during the civil war, or F.D.R. for ordering the internment without trial of Japanese-Americans in California. We hope the Congress gives American citizens at least as much protection from government killing without trial as foreign heads of state.

In the Brave New World of corrupt global and network-even collective power the properties of individual civil rights are in decline in favor of mass, collective fiat. The administration has barely reduced the U.S. unemployment rate yet has bailed out the rich, banks and Wall Street without end. In the Obamacare health plan the poor and working poor are left in the cold on the reality of applying Medicare for themselves. If one is injured as a journeyman worker would he or she really get adequate coverage or more realistically get a large bill from the emergency room visit? The taking of human life without necessity is unfortunate; when that human life is American it is a crime if developed without public trial with objective standards applicable to all.

It is not at all reasonable to argue that any American killed by the President's murder-from-the-sky drone program was necessary to prevent loss of American life. While the Homeland Security program isn't well regarded at stopping illegal alien entry, the ingression of terrorists over the border to cache weapons or explosives from Mexico, or able to meaningfully well screen out potential terrorists such as the Tsarnaevs even if warned by the F.S.B. or other foreign intelligence agencies it is necessary to rely upon their law enforcement work rather than to kill Americans abroad with missiles from robotic aircraft.

The Delta Force combined in some sort of BlackOPBop team with elements of the F.B.I. hostage rescue team perhaps helped by the N.S.A. and a high tech Skunk Works for development of technology to arrest Americans abroad wanted for terrorism should be able to capture and return for trial to the U.S.A. U.S. desperados instead of killing them. 

The four easy kills with robotic missile strikes are more of a threat to the security of all U.S. citizens than a reinforcement in many senses, for the security of individual citizens from state terrorism and these days corporate and media terrorism was always at the heart of the progress of civil liberties in the west from the day of The Lord to the U.S. and French revolutions.
