Anwar al-Aulaqi gets new designation in death
By Greg Miller and Alice Fordham
Anwar al-Aulaqi (AP/Muhammad ud-Deen) U.S. officials have given Anwar al-Aulaqi a newly elevated designation on the day of his death by drone strike, describing him as “chief of external operations” for al-Qaeda’s affiliate in Yemen.
The new title, cited by officials at the White House and the CIA, reflects Aulaqi’s evolution from Muslim cleric to alleged terrorist plotter, as well as a desire by American officials to persuade the public that the extraordinary killing of a U.S. citizen overseas was warranted.

Even trying to suck all the glory away from the CIA and military that actually put their lives on the line......while they take as much credit for events as the media will allow without pointing out that its disgusting and offensive /
