US Confirms: Citizen Is on CIA Assassination List
New Mexico-born Muslim cleric Anwar al-Awlaki has officially become the first American citizen confirmed to be on the CIA’s assassination list, and officials for the Obama Administration insist he can be killed with impunity by the CIA or the military.
The move comes just two months after National Intelligence Director Dennis Blair informed the House of Representatives that the Obama Administration had reserved for itself the right to kill American citizens overseas as part of a “defined policy.”
“He’s in everybody’s sights,” noted one US official, while another alleged that he was an “operational figure for al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP).” One of the officials also added that “US citizenship hardly gives you blanket protection overseas.”
Despite the unending list of allegations against Awlaki, he has not been charged with any crime at all by the US government, let alone convicted of a capital crime. The cleric has been openly critical of US foreign policy, and speculation of his “link” to Christmas underbomber Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab has fueled the calls to “take him out.”
