I am sure I'm going to get flamed for this, but how exactly does an Iranian American plot to kill a Saudi diplomat along with a little collateral damage differ from America using unmanned drones to kill people we don't like on foreign soil?

I'm just aksin? For my logic to run true, I find our case for outrage to be a bit single sided.

Nothing, all is fair in love and war.

Who dares first wins, so I hoped you don’t complain if total war ever commences. You are not “one of those” since your logic would be contradictory.

Big difference. They are “freedom fighters” we are just imperialistic oppressors.

They were also allegedly plotting to blow up Israel's embassy in Washington as well as those of Israel and Saudi Arabia in Argentina.

That is pretty simple. People who have been involved in terror attacks on American interests are fair game. If you haven’t been involved in actual attacks or planning/instigating attacks on American interests you are home free. It isn’t like the scum recently wiped off the fact of the earth was hanging out with den-mothers and missionaries either.

You don't see the difference between killing a Saudi diplomat and innocent people versus killing a terrorist on a kill list? Good grief.
