“We have concluded that Ahmed Farouq, an American who was an al-Qa’ida leader, was killed in the same operation that resulted in the deaths of Dr. Weinstein and Mr. Lo Porto. We have also concluded that Adam Gadahn, an American who became a prominent member of al-Qa’ida, was killed in January, likely in a separate U.S. Government counterterrorism operation.”

As “careful” as the Hussein Regime has been about AVOIDING US casualties in hostage situations, allegedly aborting missions in an “abundance” of caution, etc, it makes one wonder whether the intended targets were indeed hit.

To Whom It May Concern:
If I am ever held hostage by ISIS I give FULL PERMISSION to drone strike the crap out of them even if it means killing me.
In fact I’ll wear a tracker to help you find them

...now CNN and Fox are reporting that the White House CLAIMS that Obama did not order the strike.

Something is rotten in Denmark.

Think busted military helicopters in the Iranian desert circa April 1980.

Remember, Obama personally approves drone strikes. And it has been reported that he takes great enjoyment from them.

Interesting... the Gadahn droning was back in January but this article says the hostages were killed “recently” with al Farouk was nailed.

Other articles are reporting the hostages were killed in January.

And the radio reported the hostages were killed in a special forces rescue attempt, not a drone strike.

Maybe that’s what the Theodore Roosevelt was sent for, not just for Yemen’s situation.

This occurred in January. Why are we learning about it now? Was it because the Wall Street Journal was about to report that it indeed occurred that the administration is now trying to get in front of the story? Was it their intention never to divulge that it occurred?

Al Quaida killed these men. Not a drone strike. I know it’s not much consolation for them or their families but I would certainly rather be blown up by my own country while taking out a bunch of those barbarians than dressed in an orange jump suit and beheaded on camera for youtube.

Interesting comments on this post. Here is my question. Since the Obama drones keep on mentioning the he got Bin Laden, the next time it is thrown in our faces, can we now say with that logic, Obama is personnaly responsible for killing this American citizen?

0 will not be criticized for it. Change it to a Republican, and it’s outrage all over the place.

Iam pretty sure there is someone in the oval office of the White Hut working for al-Qa’ida.
