We're a little late to the party on this one, but Ben and fellow Brookings scholar Daniel Byman will discuss their lengthy report "Tools and Tradeoffs: Confronting U.S. Citizen Terrorist Suspects Abroad" at 1 PM at Brookings today. The paper is about how the United States goes after American terrorists abroad, and, as Ben said in an earlier post:
[I]t is an attempt to survey the bewildering array of authorities and powers the United States has deployed against its citizens when they are believed to have allied themselves with Al Qaeda or its associated forces overseas and to try to look at the costs and benefits of the various tools at the disposal of the United States.The event will be moderated by Bruce Riedel, also of Brookings, and will be available as an episode of the Lawfare Podcast.
Ritika Singh was a project coordinator at the Brookings Institution where she focused on national security law and policy. She graduated with majors in International Affairs and Government from Skidmore College in 2011, and wrote her thesis on Russia’s energy agenda in Europe and its strategic implications for America.
