The Lethal Presidency of Barack Obama

CuteOldGuy's Avatar
On October 14, 2011, Abdulrahman Al-awlaki was killed by U.S. airstrikes in Yemen. Al-awlaki was a 16 year old American citizen who was eating dinner with a group of his teenage friends when U.S. airstrikes took their lives. Al-awlaki, born in Denver, Colorado, was the son of Anwar al-Awlaki. Anwar al-Awlaki, of course, was the U.S. citizen suspected (but never prosecuted) of working with Al Qaeda; Awlaki was assassinated by the U.S. on September 30, 2011.

Barack Obama. The first President to assassinate an American teenager, and no coverage in the MSM can be found.

From the article:

The numbers, however, are at the very least suggestive. Since taking office, you have killed thousands of people identified as terrorists or militants outside the theater of Afghanistan. You have captured and detained one.

Proud to be an American?

yeah, as a matter of fact Iam proud to be an American.


are you proud to be pathetic?
Truman ordered nuclear strikes that killed American POWs.......so your claim of Obama being the 1st President to assassinate an American (your description, not mine) is false imo...Norman Brissette, a POW being held at Chugoku Military Police Headquarters in the center of Hiroshima was 19 at the time.....and his father wasn't a terrorist, and unlike your sympathetic Abdulrahman Al-awlaki, Norman Brissette was fighting our enemy, not hanging out breaking bread with them.

I think you need to correct the "facts" of your OP before you question my assertions, don't you think ?

That is rich, you make factual mis-statements in your OP, you are called out for them, and what do you do ???

You don't say, gee your right, let me correct/edit my OP, instead you go all attack dog......your a jerk.

"Truth is Treason in the Empire of Lies "

What a phony.....you get confronted with the truth about Presidential "assassinations" and you defend your own lies by attacking others.......fuck youi !

And this kid was killed by a drone strike ordered by the President with no authority from Congress and in a war that has never been declared, where no definition of victory has ever been offered, and no enemy clearly identified.

We kill all kinds of brown people overseas, on the notion that they "might" be terrorists. Yet our borders are wide open, allowing any one with intent to harm this country enter with impunity. And then our leaders are so cowardly, they want to be able to detain anyone without having to even meet a probable cause standard, and only because they "might" be a terrorist, or aided a terrorist, or met a terrorist, or saw a terrorist on TV, or spelled "terrorist" correctly in a spelling bee.

Instead of investigating real terrorists already in this country, we raid raw milk farms, guitar factories, and close unlawful lemonade stands. If we see someone who looks somewhat suspicious, however, let's toss them in jail, and deal with them if and when we get around to it.

This whole situation is bullshit, and has been used to turn this country into something the Founder's never intended. We have the most corrupt government in history, but if you question them, they shout "We must protect you from terrorists!" and that ends the conversation.

The terrorists are smart. Their one successful attack has been used to transform the US into a police state. They don't have to do another damn thing, we'll bring ourselves down, all in the name of "protecting ourselves". We're in more danger from our own government than we are from any terrorists.

In order to be an effective President of a super power like the United States, you must be tough. Really tough.

The Republicans are anxiously waiting for any excuse to label the President soft or weak on defense.

The fact is, that it is always easy to find a little weepy incident of something unintended that went wrong somewhere and use that as a reason to attack the Commander in Chief who has to deal forcefully with thugs and war lords that simply do not understand any other form of communication.

Yes, collateral damage is unfortunate, but it is part of the reality and brutality of war.

We actually have many more teenage deaths on the U.S. highways every day than this one particular incident, but is that justification to ban driving?

You really should get a job, old geezer or do some volunteer work instead of always trying to stir up emotional shit!

. . . You could be of better service to the community if you would empty bed pans instead of always filling them up with your crap!

Well, we knew your opinion before you wrote it, FastGoon. From the altar of his holiness, Barack Obama, who's name shall be praised. Obama Akhbar!

You understand that in real life, the President is nothing like you paint him, don't you? He's a sniveling coward hiding behind Valerie Jarrett's and Michelle's skirts.

But today anyone tagged a "terrorist" can be given a death sentence by the President, and that's actually how it used to be until recently.

In the cold war the CIA assassinated hundreds of thousands of people, either directly or indirectly. Then in 1975 the laws were changed so a Presidential finding, a lethal finding, would have to be used. The CIA station chief in Pakistan used to keep a copy of Carter's finding in his desk as he went about arming Afghan fighters.

The difference is of course that now it's American citizens who are able to be killed, formally and legally, and that's just stupid.

More people die of bee stings every year than terrorist acts.

In the 1970s the US trained and supplied all the world's major terrorists in an operation in Libya run by Frank Terpil and Edwin Wilson. Anyone who's seen the film, "Munich" can see how that program operated. It was actually ordered by President Nixon after the 1972 Munich Olympics attack. That project worked in that no terrorist group ever targeted any Americans until the program was destroyed by American law enforcement in 1980. After that US citizens started being killed and captured in Lebanon, the Phillipines, and other places.

Terrorism is theater.

It is not politics, or even security.

It is theater.
Did Hitler kill anyone?
