I LEARNED that my 16-year-old grandson, Abdulrahman - a United States citizen - had been killed by an American drone strike from news reports the morning after he died.
The missile killed him, his teenage cousin and at least five other civilians on Oct. 14, 2011, while the boys were eating dinner at an open-air restaurant in southern Yemen....
The United States government has refused to explain why Abdulrahman was killed. It was not until May of this year that the Obama administration, in a supposed effort to be more transparent, publicly acknowledged what the world already knew — that it was responsible for his death.
The attorney general, Eric H. Holder Jr., said only that Abdulrahman was not "specifically targeted," raising more questions than he answered.
My grandson was killed by his own government. The Obama administration must answer for its actions and be held accountable. On Friday, I will petition a federal court in Washington to require the government to do just that.

The media goes ape because of the proposal.
But Barack Hussein Obama KILLS AMERICANS WITHOUT DUE PROCESS OF THE LAW and the media is as silent as a mouse.
I only wish our Reapers could reload.
Isn’t there an American travel prohibition to Yemen? Muslims are slaughtering each other there.
I’m not generally into the taint of attainder. But if anyone asked for it, it was Al-Anwaliki, a traitor of the highest order, an American citizen who urged mass murder. Sorry about the kid, on the off chance he wasn’t infected, but Big Al had to go.
I don’t see the problem here. You go to a city that is basically run by ISIS and you are shocked that bombs fell on your innocent kid??? Interesting.
I HATE the idea oF a young cilvilian being killed.
I hated it during WWII.
I hated it during The Korean was.
I hated it during Viet Nam.
I hated it in Iraq and Afghanistan.
IT IS WAR AND WAR IS HELL.

Well, next time, tell him to eat indoors.
Problem solved. You're welcome.
Good riddance.
Drones do not ask to see your passport.
Sorry, Abdul. I don’t care. You are a raghead. Your grandson was a raghead. I don’t have any sympathy for ragheads. You’re way ahead of us on body count.
him, his teenage cousin and at least five other civilians
Civilians?
How could you tell?
According to Islam everyone is a combatant,
including women and kids.
They were in a war zone occupied by the enemy. They were unwise to be there.
0blama made a mistake and killed a future terrorist!
Never have lunch with islamo scum in an islamo scum location.
“Isn’t there an American travel prohibition to Yemen? Muslims are slaughtering each other there.”....
Why the hell would anyone need to go to Yemen to get slaughtered, a simple trip to Chicago could get that done. Americans a killing one another daily there. (Many of them are blacks killing each other although I’m uncertain as to their religious affiliations).
Duh duh duh,
Another one bites the dust!
