Had anyone in the U.S. military had a clear shot at Lee at any time during the Civil War, killing him would have been justifiable.

Lee was not acting on behalf of any state recognized by the U.S. He was born in the U.S. and was a citizen. Yet, he was a legitimate military target while he was engaged in hostilities against our government.
