When two non-citizens push out a baby on American soil
‘it’ becomes a citizen a.k.a anchor baby.
Anwar was no more an American citizen than maggot.

His trusty sidekick kicked the bucket, too? I have to wonder what was on his bucket list?

Obama, Code Pink, and the Treason Wing of politics deeply saddened.

A young American who edited al Qaeda’s English-language magazine...

This bag of burned dog food may have been a "U.S. citizen" BUT HE WAS NOT AN AMERICAN! There is a huge difference.

It's being reported that both bodies are decimated beyond the point of being able to be identified.......interesting. That's 3 Obama kills that can't be id’d.

Mr. Awlaki

We've been fighting Islamic terrorists for how long and the newsies still have no clue about how Arabic names work?

Unless this is an extremely rare case, al-Awlaki is not surname, it is a "nisbah" -- a reference to membership in a city, tribe, organization, or sometimes profession. Case in point: Saddam Hussein al-Tikriti -- al-Tikriti wasn't a family name, it simply said that he (and roughly 90% of his inner circle) came from the city of Tikrit.

In some Arabic-speaking cultures, there is no such thing as a surname -- you have your personal (given) name, and typically one or more additional names specifying your paternal lineage. Example: Osama bin Laden would be in these cases Osama, son of Laden, with "bin" sometimes optional based on region/dialect. However, note in some Arabic cultures that have "modernized" to use a stable family surname, that a paternal name like bin Laden may be "fossilized" as the family surname.

I thought he fit into the last section under “Treason Wing”, but that works for me.

Honestly I can’t get excited about it because they’re like shark teeth.

At some point we’re going to have to figure out how to kill the shark.

***Update: Let’s not forget, however, that we’ve prematurely celebrated the end of this jihadi at least once before.***

I can think of a few others.

Che was declared dead by the CIA back in the late 1960s then showed up alive in Bolivia.

General Giap of North Vietnam was declared dead but later was found very much alive.
