Well, from my perspective it behooves us to err towards following the Constitution. There are several reasons I can think of. Perhaps the best one is that it'd be a damn shame for the SCOTUS to throw out the case because the individual wasn't given due process. Also, if we're seen to be following the highest standard possible, it gives less fuel to the fires that feed recruitment for those who would do us harm.
wellI finds this hard to mesh. We are bombing and killing guys ( 7 yesterday?) with predators, there is no due process to be had. They could be , what everything from goat herders with an ak to serious guys we need to hit. They get kablooyed all over the countryside.
We have a guy whom should be dead but isn’t, pulled the trigger on the murder of 275-300 (?) people…. He could whom could have given us good actionable intel, and now we are saying we might get info. As we plea bargain?

You’re worried about due process…? He will never see the light of day again….

I am trying to square that circle but can’t…
