Obama Killed a 16-Year-Old American in Yemen. Trump Just Killed His 8-Year-Old Sister.

Why was a little girl present in the locale of a legitimate terrorist/military target?

That the administration says it was a legitimate target doesn't make it so. Regardless, are you implying that an 8 year old girl was a terrorist?

In 2010, President Obama directed the CIA to assassinate an American citizen in Yemen, Anwar al-Awlaki, despite the fact that he had never been charged with (let alone convicted of) any crime, and the agency successfully carried out that order a year later with a September, 2011 drone strike. While that assassination created widespread debate – the once-again-beloved ACLU sued Obama to restrain him from the assassination on the ground of due process and then, when that suit was dismissed, sued Obama again after the killing was carried out – another killing carried out shortly thereafter was perhaps even more significant yet generated relatively little attention.

Two weeks after the killing of Awlaki, a separate CIA drone strike in Yemen killed his 16-year-old American-born son, Abdulrahman, along with the boy’s 17-year-old cousin and several other innocent Yemenis. The U.S. eventually claimed that the boy was not their target but merely “collateral damage.” Abdulrahman’s grief-stricken grandfather, Nasser al-Awlaki, urged the Washington Post “to visit a Facebook memorial page for Abdulrahman,” which explained: “Look at his pictures, his friends, and his hobbies His Facebook page shows a typical kid.”

Few events pulled the mask off Obama officials like this one. It highlighted how the Obama administration was ravaging Yemen, one of the world’s poorest countries: just weeks after he won the Nobel Prize, Obama used cluster bombs that killed 35 Yemeni women and children. Even Obama-supporting liberal comedians mocked the Obama DOJ’s arguments for why it had the right to execute Americans with no charges: “Due Process Just Means There’s A Process That You Do,” snarked Stephen Colbert. And a firestorm erupted when former Obama Press Secretary Robert Gibbs offered a sociopathic justification for killing the Colorado-born teenager, apparently blaming him for his own killing by saying he should have “had a more responsible father.”

Obama Killed a 16-Year-Old American in Yemen. Trump Just Killed His 8-Year-Old Sister.

“Why kill children?,” the grandfather asked. “This is the new (U.S.) administration – it’s very sad, a big crime.”

Unfortunately there's nothing new about the U.S. government killing children in the Middle East.

Never mind that, when does Trump get his Nobel Peace Prize?

Republicans don't get peace prizes, silly.

When you find a post of mine promoting leftist causes get back to me.

Mooselimb sympathy is a leftist cause you tool.

The challenge stands.

YOU go "coexist" with them. The rest of us don't care to have them around.

No. I'm implying that her caretakers put her at risk. Duh...

your citation is BULL SHIT----kevin. How do I know? -------I get the real story
from Yemenis-------lots of Yemens in the USA ------my best informant is desperate to save family members from the filth of IRANIAN ARMED HOUTHIS who have
devastated Yemen the past two decade-------amongst other tribal
war devastations over the past in excess of 65 years.. The Iranians have also
dispatched the dogs and pigs called HEZBOLLAH in order wreck bloody hell in
Yemen ------AND THEIR BIG TIME AMBITION----invade Saudi Arabia and grab
the BIG BLACK TURD IN MECCA as a gift to the little bastard sleeping in the
well in QOM. Saudi Arabia is building a wall to keep the filth of IRANIAN
armed houthis and Hezbollah out (GREAT IDEA) (ps---my hubby was born
in Yemen long ago------would be dead now if his parents had not escaped with
the poor little boy) (pps---the notion that starvation in yemen is the result of
SA fighting of the houthi and Hezbollah pigs------is HILARIOUS---for those who do
not know-----the ONLY interest SA has in Yemen is that it not be used AS AN
ENTRY INTO MECCA BY IMPERIALIST FASCIST IRAN (not that fascist
Saudi arabia is a big bargain for humanity)

Killing Al Awlaki was the best thing Obama did. The same SHOULD have been
done by the USA to------your other heros------Al Assad Saddam Hussein (like---about 1968) Gamel Abdul Nasser-----(like about 1960) Hafez al assad (like about 1972) and Adolf Hitler (like about 1934)

When you can't actually dispute the facts just bust out a quick zing. Good job.

After she got sold by her father she probably would have given birth to several.

Sympathy for human life is "leftist?" I thought it was basic humanity regardless of political ideology, and makes up a large part of the Christian faith. Guess I was wrong.

Assuming that the administration is telling the truth. A big assumption given we know that they already lied about civilian deaths in this raid.

Our excessive concern for collateral damage is what has extended this war into its 16th year.

We have no concern for humanity at all, including our own.

Some project concern into the womb, though, and insist on their concerns taking precedence over the person in whom the womb is.

Bullshit, if you gave a shit about "human life" you wouldn't be here all the time pissing and moaning about how zealots of a violent cult are being resisted and killed.

A real tragedy. Poor kid
I believe this was a pure coincidence but it's sad anyway

That's not any type of concern for others, that's a christian version of sharia.

Following that logic... Its just an assumption that the 8 year old girl existed at all.

That's reality pal, deal with it.

Little girls are frequently sold into "marriage" at ages civilized people would consider criminal all over Yemen.

If anything the poor girl was saved from a harsh life of servitude and rape.

Meh, who cares, pretty much the same thing now.

That the administration says it was a legitimate target doesn't make it so. Regardless, are you implying that an 8 year old girl was a terrorist?

Or among them. But what evidence do you have that it wasn't a legit target? Other than your firm beliefs.

It was a fantastic raid.

A dozen Al Qaeda / ISIS operatives were killed.

One of the Americans was KIA in the raid unfortunately.

Lots of good intel was gathered.

Al Qaeda and ISIS plant their nests where the local civilians serve them as human shields get killed too.

That's their own fault.

They are all dead now and in Hell.

Good riddance.
