He was born in Las Cruces, New Mexico

“Al-Awlaki’s parents are from Yemen. His father, Nasser al-Aulaqi, was a Fulbright Scholar.[45] who earned a master’s degree in agricultural economics at New Mexico State University in 1971, received a doctorate at the University of Nebraska, and worked at the University of Minnesota from 1975 to 1977.[14][46]

“Anwar was seven years old when his family returned to Yemen in 1978.[2][16] He then lived in Yemen for 11 years, and studied at Azal Modern School.[50]

Al-Awlaki returned to Colorado in 1991 to attend college. He earned a B.S. in Civil Engineering from Colorado State University (1994), where he was President of the Muslim Student Association.”(Wiki)

The press is saying US born and American.

They are not calling him a citizen though, but by our current law he was.

So...I cautiously submit that 0bama ordered the killing of a US Citizen without Right to a trial. This could be the start of a dangerous precedent.

Essentially we didn't even give this guy the very thing the progressives demand for the combatants at Gitmo.

We often write here on FR...I may disagree with what you say, but I'll fight for your Right to say it.

Under our current law this citizen had certain Rights.
0bama again crossed borders into a country we're not engaged with to carry out the assination.
Recall all the lies told about the killing of Osama.

“He was born in Las Cruces, New Mexico”

When he came back to the US in ‘91, he should have stayed. He could have become president, at least according to a number of people here, Rush and Mark Levin.

Not sure that’s what the authors of the Constitution had in mind, but what do I know. The first “Yemeni-American” President. How historic. I’m sure he would have made a fine President.

Oh great, another Fulbright scholar.

Um, he attended Azal Modern?; I’d hate to see what would’ve happened had he attended Azal Medieval. /s
