The U.S. government has declared that they can assassinate anyone in a foreign country, including U.S. citizens. As a U.S. citizen abroad, could I make their hitlist?

1. Are you a member of Al-queda or waging war against the US?

Then the answer is probably, yes.

2. No I'm not, but there are a few people in Gitmo who also are not

so I guess it's not up to me to decide

3. Executive Order 12333

prohibits assassination.

2.11 Prohibition on Assassination.

No person employed by or acting on behalf of the United States Government shall engage in, or conspire to engage in, assassination.

4. Well, they're breaking or have declared the intention to break that rule
