Targeted Killings
November 3, 2002, a CIA-controlled Predator drone in Yemen bombed an SUV carrying Abu Ali al-Harithi, a suspected operational planner of the attack on the U.S.S. Cole, four Yemeni suspected terrorists, and Ahmed Hijazi, a naturalized U.S. citizen and ringleader of an alleged terrorist sleeper cell in Lackawanna, New York.
it was the first overt targeted killing after 9/11 outside of Afghanistan in what was then already being labeled by the Bush administration as the ’Global War on Terrorism.’
it was the first acknowledged targeted killing by the United States government, outside of a battlefield, since political assassinations were prohibited by President Gerald Ford in 1976
In early 2010, the Obama administration authorized the killing of al-Awlaki, he dead, more to follow in other posts
