Right. They're just doing it to make a political statement and pull in donations/new members. Maybe they could get a religious organization that Abdulrahman al-Awlaki was a member of in Denver to join as a plaintive and argue that by killing citizen members of their group the government was interfering with the practice of their religion. But, I don't think that would even pass in US courts since you couldn't prove Abdulrahman al-Awlaki was under direct surveillance while on US soil and that it played a role in his killing. The American Intelligence Community is completely untouchable. Honestly, I don't even think Obama is powerful enough to stop the surveillance if he wanted to. It would just go "compartmental" in the organization or they'd get rid of Obama.
