The President can designate such a combatant if he belongs to an entity—a government, say, or a terrorist network like al Qaeda—that has taken up arms against the United States as part of an internationally recognized armed conflict. That does not include Hanoi Jane. Looks like she's taken up arms to me.

The other thing to note is that she was never prosecuted. So not only was there no attack on her as a US citizen, there was also no prosecution of her. No charges were ever brought.
Because she’s famous .... ya think?
