DoJ to reveal drone memo on targeting of USCITS.
WASHINGTON (AP) - On the eve of a critical Senate vote and under court order, the Obama administration signaled it will publicly reveal a secret memo describing its legal justification for using drones to kill U.S. citizens suspected of terrorism overseas.
Two administration officials told The Associated Press that the Justice Department has decided not to appeal a Court of Appeals ruling requiring disclosure of a redacted version of the memo under the Freedom of Information Act. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about the matter.
Redacted for what reason? Why was al-Awlaki targeted? Why would al-Awlaki or any other American citizen be targeted, denied due process? Let's have the truth.
