This was the topic I responded to: "If people were being "disappeared" in the US "
As far as your grievances go, I understand that many people are opposed to the US defending itself against al Qaida, and the measures taken, but that is a different question than what I responded to.
The use of drones or cruise missiles does not constitute "summary execution," but is attacking members of an enemy force at war with the United States. You may not like that, but it is true. Bin Laden declared war on the United States on behalf of al Qaida in 1996, the US Congress authorized military action against al Qaida in 2001 after 9/11.
The fact that US citizens have joined al Qaida renders them no protection on the battlefield any more than the hundreds of thousands of Americans fighting for the Confederate States of America in the Civil War. There were shot and killed all the same without arrest, charges, trial, conviction, or sentencing. War is war, not a matter of the criminal justice system.
Muslims are fine, as long as they are peaceful. If they take up arms to attack the country they may be killed just like German Christians were killed in WW1 & WW2, Chinese atheists in the Korean War, and so on.
You may be gratified to know that the prisoners detained at Guantanamo Bay received regular visits from the Red Cross.
