Isn’t this a slippery slope? Could the argument be made that anyone who isn’t a U.S. citizen isn’t protected by the constitution then? Not a citizen, you can’t say what you want when you want. Not a citizen you don’t get the right to due process. Etc.

The US just assassinated a high ranking military official of a nation we arent at war with openly without even attempting it covertly. It would seem that they are already well invested in carrying out justice against foreign nationals as they see fit
