While many Americans thought they could not lose any more of their rights under President Obama, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder -- who represents the Obama administration -- has decided that drone (pilotless remote-controlled airplane) strikes to kill U.S. citizens on American soil are legal. Holder sent a letter to Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) on March 4 in which these stunning admissions were made public, the Inquisitr website reports today (March 6, 2013).
Sen. Paul had asked the Obama administration to come clean as to whether it believes it has the authority to order such domestic drone strikes to kill U.S. citizens.
This question came up after the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) authorized the use of drones over the United States.
Sen. Paul said, "I'm not talking about people engaged in lethal force. I'm talking about city people in a cafe having coffee." He added, "People like this are being killed around the world (by strikes from U.S. drones). We should not be doing this in America."
