I think he means Gaddafi, but he was killed by Libyans, not Americans.

Perhaps, but there are reports coming out now that a Predator drone fired on his convoy, so the US wasn't exactly hands off.

I don't think the Libyans would have been able to kill him without our help.

Providing material support to a revolution isn't the same thing as an assassination. Due process doesn't apply on a battlefield, but it should apply to a prisoner in custody.
