Stein told reporters in Iowa that she’d have brought him to justice instead, according to the Des Moines Register.

“I think assassinations ... they’re against international law to start with and to that effect, I think I would not have assassinated Osama bin Laden but would have captured him and brought him to trial,” Stein said.

During a rally in Iowa following her comments, Stein referred to both Republican Donald Trump Donald John TrumpBubba Wallace to be driver of Michael Jordan, Denny Hamlin NASCAR team Graham: GOP will confirm Trump's Supreme Court nominee before the election Southwest Airlines, unions call for six-month extension of government aid MORE and Democrat Hillary Clinton Hillary Diane Rodham ClintonJoe Biden looks to expand election battleground into Trump country Biden leads Trump by 12 points among Catholic voters: poll The Hill's Campaign Report: Biden goes on offense MORE as “war mongers.”

She said the 9/11 attacks “provided a pretext for the wrong wars, which have only gotten us into more trouble.”

Stein promised a “targeted” approach to tracking down terrorists and bringing them to justice for crimes against humanity if elected.
