al-Awlaki Strikes Again

I'd like to offer my deepest love for the victims of the Boston Marathon bombing. It's jarring when terror strikes home. And especially in the aftermath of such an abhorrent attack, it's important to realize how lucky we are not to be terrorized like this on a daily basis, like we see in so many places around the world. 

Love to all victims.


That being said, let's slice into the shit.

Pentagon spokesnetwork CNN is re-indicting American-born radical cleric Anwar al-Awlaki for inspiring everything from the most recent Boston attacks to Guy Fawkes' attempted bombing of the British House of Lords in 1605. 

Western Decadence DEMANDS that you pull my finger

The revealing article presents new evidence from US officials, detailing the Tsarnaev brothers' process of radicalization. The article drops this bombshell of a quote pinning the connection between the Tsarnaev brothers and the assassinated cleric:

"the preachings of Anwar al-Awlaki were likely to have been among the videos they watched."

Holy SHIT. 

Folks, let's put aside the fact the al-Awlaki's assassination marked the first time in our history that an executive order gave the green light for killing an American citizen overseas without due process, and let's also put aside the fact that two weeks later the we killed his 16 year old son in the same fashion (omitted from the CNN article but no big deal it's not relevant), the reality is that CNN is continuing to justify the Obama administration's out of control drone campaign doing what a news outlet should be doing: exposing truth, making connections, and reminding us that sometimes you just need to take a guy out.

The team at American Difter proposes we find al-Awlaki's body, re-animate him, and drone strike him again while blasting Miley Cyrus' "Party in the USA."

The first time obviously didn't get the message across.
