If this report is correct, the guy who wasn’t a terrorist just because he talked to him, may indeed be a terrorist after all.
Sources tell ABC News that an air raid in Yemen this morning may have killed two top al Qaeda officials as well as an imam believed to have inspired the alleged Fort Hood shooter.
Those believed to have been present at the target in the eastern province Shabwa included the leader of Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, Nasser al-Wahayshi, his No. 2, Saeed al-Shehri, and Anwar al-Awlaki, who was quoted telling Al Jazeera Web that Maj. Nidal Hasan, asked him “about killing U.S. soldiers and officers. His question was is it legitimate” under Islamic law.
In other words, if Anwar al-Awlaki is enough of a threat that we blew him up, why wouldn’t it be a danger to receive advice and inspiration from him, and a criminal conspiracy to commit violence on his behalf?
