I'm pretty sure you have to be an american operative for a terrorist organization.

As far as I'm concerned individuals can feel however they like about the U.S., it's a free world. But if they are knowingly helping to bring down an airplane that I might be on, I hope the CIA gets them.


Conversely, if they're knowingly helping to bring down an airplane that I might be on, I want them to be handled in accordance with the law rather than summarily executed by CIA operatives, just like any other type of criminal.


But if the law is that they should be summarily executed by CIA operatives, wouldn't that be handling them in accordance with the law?

Allow me to rephrase for clarity, if you would: I want them tried in a court of law.

Then of course, there is the case of Frank Olson who worked on mind control experiments for the CIA who was thrown through a high-story hotel plate-glass window to his death onto a midtown Manhattan street below \by agents who got away with it.

Read A Terrible Mistake: The Murder of Frank Olson and the CIA's Secret Cold War Experiments.

Olson was American.
