(1) UNITED STATES CITIZENS- The requirement to detain a person in military custody under this section does not extend to citizens of the United States.
No, I'm saying that's the first time our government openly did it and told us about it.
Link please.
No I believe they're capable of doing that. But the only articles I found about the crash say that although some of the troops killed were members of Seal Team 6 but that none of them were part of the bin Laden raid team. Of course, we don't know who was there and who wasn't so, so who knows.
You're missing two very important points. First, a "US Citizen" is defined as someone not collaborating with Al-Qaeda or other terrorist organizations - if they allege you're taking part in the "War" on Terror, you are no longer exempt.
