    I'm with you, good riddance, doesn't matter that they were born here in the UK, they chose the path of terror.

    How is it that they were plotting terrorism that was a danger to the UK? It seems like we have killed thousands of people who were allegedly on the verge of being a threat against western countries, but unless our governments have secretly developed flawless future prediction like in minority report, doesn't it seem a bit ridiculous to assume all of these people were actually potential terrorists?

    isis fanatics should be killed on the spot regardless the nationality, the moment they join the caliphate they give up any right and should be eradicated

    A declaration of war against ISIS would enable such "homegrowns" to be found guilty of treason. Here in the US, treason gets you the death penalty.

    What are the legal ramifications of this? I know some people are very against the US targeting American-born terrorists overseas, with Anwar al-Awlaki being the most known case. Obviously he was killed by drone strike, so the US govt sees it as legal.

    Should get hanged, drawn and quartered like the good old days for treason. Treason would always get you a slow and painful death as it was the worst crime to commit. No mercy for people who go and join terror groups.

    Thankfully we no longer have the death penalty for any crime. These two were enemy combatants in a warzone, so were subject to military action, not criminal action.

    Good. Anyone signing up to a murder cult should be shot alongside them, no exceptions.

    Yep. We keep gun violence out of our country as best we can, but if they want to go to a country that has freedom to shoot each other and be shot by the military there, thats all on them.

    The Labour party are apparently demanding Cameron reveal details of the intelligence that prompted the strike. I hope he tells them he thought one of them might have had a WMD on him, and that that should be good enough for them with their record.

    Although the reason this story has any relevance is that where we killed them is not actually a designated war zone.

    The UK government has only designated ISIS in Iraq a war zone, ISIS in Syria is not because we can't be seen to side with Assad
