My contention is that we are at war with Al Qaeda and its affiliates. Osama bin Laden formally stated this on two occasions. Let me know if anyone needs to see a link, I think we have all seen his pronouncements on this score.

The above link contains a list of all prominent figures among Al Qaeda and its affiliates and supporters. The folks not already dead or captured have two choices, surrender, or be killed. I have no problem with that given their groups stated intent to wage war against us.

It is not considered execution of a US citizen if you are killed in support of a group with whom we are at war and make no mistake, the conditions between the United States and Al Qaeda completely meet the UN definition of a state of war.
