This is just so amazing considering the White House had no problem assassinating American citizens via drone strike in Yemen.
No due process for American citizens; but these men are going to get a civilian trial in a US court of law.
You just can't make this shit up. Un mother freaking real.
WASHINGTON Five men are under round-the-clock U.S. surveillance in Libya, wanted for questioning in the attack last year on the diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya.
The White House believes there is enough proof for a military force to seize them as terrorist suspects, officials say, but prefers to wait until investigators have enough evidence to try them in a U.S. civilian courtroom.
The decision not to seize the men militarily underscores the White House aim to move away from hunting terrorists as enemy combatants and toward a process in which most are apprehended and tried by the countries where they are living, or arrested by the U.S. with the host countrys cooperation and tried in the U.S. criminal justice system.
