Are we not innocent until proven guilty?
A formerly undisclosed Justice Department memo was leaked to NBC News. This document, titled Lawfulness of a Lethal Operation Directed Against a U.S. Citizen who is a Senior Operational Leader of Al Qa’ida or An Associated Force, outlines the Obama Administration’s legal basis for the targeted assassination of American citizens. The memo was leaked just before John Brennan goes before the Senate for his confirmation hearings as the new CIA Director.
