But Holder, writing to Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, underlined that Obama “has no intention” of targeting his fellow citizens with unmanned aerial vehicles and would do so only if facing “an extraordinary circumstance.”
Paul had asked the Obama administration on Feb. 20 whether the president “has the power to authorize lethal force, such as a drone strike, against a U.S. citizen on U.S. soil and without trial.” On Tuesday, he denounced Holder’s response as “frightening” and “an affront to the Constitutional due process rights of all Americans.”
“The U.S. government has not carried out drone strikes in the United States and has no intention of doing so,” Holder assured Paul in the March 4, 2013 letter. The attorney general also underlined that “we reject the use of military force where well-established law enforcement authorities in this country provide the best means for incapacitating a terrorist threat.”

The 5th Amendment regarding due process makes an exception in “time of War or public danger”.
And they’ve declared a NEVER ENDING WAR on terrorism, even though terrorism is an idea/action. You can NEVER win or end a war against an idea or action (they don’t want it to end) and thanks to scum like Lindsey Graham, the entire world (including US Soil) is the ‘battlefield’. It’s absolutely disgusting.
