‘Dozens’ of US citizens on assassination list, White House adviser hints
   

Source: Raw Story

When it was confirmed last winter by then-Director of National Intelligence Dennis Blair that the Obama administration had authorized the assassination of American citizens working with terrorist groups overseas, it appeared that no more than three Americans were being targeted in this manner.

In an interview last week with the Washington Times, however, Deputy White House National Security Adviser for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism John O. Brennan suggested that the number might actually amount to "dozens."

"There are, in my mind, dozens of U.S. persons who are in different parts of the world, and they are very concerning to us," Brennan stated, "not just because of the passport they hold, but because they understand our operational environment here, they bring with them certain skills, whether it be language skills or familiarity with potential targets, and they are very worrisome, and we are determined to take away their ability to assist with terrorist attacks,"

"If an American person or citizen is in a Yemen or in a Pakistan or in Somalia or another place, and they are trying to carry out attacks against U.S. interests, they also will face the full brunt of a U.S. response," Brennan continued. "What we need to do is to apply the appropriate tool and the appropriate response."

1. If they're plotting against the US, they're committing treason,
   
and should be on that list.

Yeah we all know when Bush was president you would have said the same thing. Oh wait sleep depriving detainees was the worst form of torture then.

OMG the hypocrisy. Waterboarding under Bush is bad, a hit list of Americans under Obama is good.

We can kill them, but listening to their phone calls is a big no-no.  Gotcha.

As far as the MSM is concerned, this will be big case of 'Republicans do it, impeach them; Democrats do it, nothing to see here, move along.'

Somehow, Bruno's words make me believe that many more Americans are on an assassination list here domestically.

With some in the Obama administration claiming that teabaggers and christians are terrorist, I can't help but wonder if maybe some on the hit list are "in Country".

That possibility cannot be entirely discounted.

I thought it was a given.
