Sana'a(dpa) - Yemen's security agencies have no substantial evidence that al-Qaeda leader Anwar al-Awlaki was killed in a recent airstrike in the eastern province of Mareb, an official security source said Thursday.
'The latest information available to the security agencies is that al-Awlaki was driving in a motorcade of three cars when a US drone targeted them (on September 30),' the source told the Yemeni website Mareb Press on condition of anonymity.
He added that one car had been hit, while the other two escaped.
'There is no irrefutable information that al-Awlaki was inside the hit car,' he said.
According to the source, it was hard to identify the remains left after the raid.
'There was no actual body. All that was left after the incident were mere remains mixed with wrecked pieces of the targeted car,' he said. 'These remains were collected and buried by residents in the area.'

Al Awlaki was most likely a CIA disinformation asset. So, it is reasonable to believe that nothing the CIA says about him is true--not even his death. It was likely a staged event--for purposes of making the point that our government can unconstitutionally deprive someone of life, liberty or property without due process. His 'death' was a scare tactic to teach everybody that the US government is completely unconstrained by anything to dispose of anyone. We seem to be falling for this. I see no organized demonstrations against it. That would be like cheering for the Viet Cong during the Vietnam war. Not politically correct to protest violations of the constitution.

He probably had to check in back at the Pentagon before his vacation.
