RADICAL YEMENI CLERIC'S EXTENSIVE AMERICAN CONTACTS A SOURCE OF MAJOR CONCERN
INVESTIGATIVE PROJECT - IPT News ^ | January 19, 2010 | n/a

Posted on 01/19/2010 6:08:57 PM PST by Cindy

SNIPPET: "U.S. intelligence officials believe there are dozens -- perhaps hundreds - of Americans who have been in e-mail contact with the radical Yemeni cleric who is believed to have inspired and directed both the Fort Hood shooter and the failed Christmas Day airline bomber, the Investigative Project on Terrorism has learned. Efforts to learn the details of that communication, or even to target Anwar Al-Awlaki militarily, may be hindered by his status as an American citizen."

I wish Anwar Al-Awlaki would e-mail me. I would work hard to befriend him and learn his location.

I could use a foreign hunting trip right now. All scoped up and ready to travel!

As an American citizen, Awlaki still enjoys the same civil rights as anyone in the United States. Similarly, U.S. intelligence officials believe they could have used a Predator drone strike to try to kill Awlaki, but held back because he's an American, the IPT has learned.

Isn't there a legal way to strip a person of citizenship?

Okay....It is now apparent that Scott Brown will be the next Senator from the state of Massachusetts. It is my belief that FreeRepublic played no little role in this earth-shaking event. It is now time to send another message to those who would take away our freedoms, tax us into poverty and force socialism on us all.

Let's dig down deep tonight and do what we can to end this FReepathon. Let's make sure that the most popular conservative website continues long and strong.

Thank you!
