Well, the precedent is set now. The American Government can assassinate us without even a pretense of bringing us to trial.

Where are all these "Back to the Constitution" people protesting this huge violation of our civil rights?

Well, since Yemin has no extradition treaty with us, how exactly were we to give this person any trial? And since he WAS supporting the enemy how else should we have treated him?
