@hazelpress @charlie_savage Ah, thanks for the reference - that was closer to what I remembered reading a few years ago.
@charlie_savage Yes. One of abt 5 datapoints that strongly suggest Awlaki targeted. @jeremyscahill @ioerror @hazelpress

@emptywheel@jeremyscahill@ioerror@hazelpress No, I do not think Nasser's claim tells us anything about US targeting theory on 12/24 -
@charlie_savage If Nasser's claim is true, then Awlaki targeted when US believed him non-operational@jeremyscahill@ioerror@hazelpress -
@emptywheel@jeremyscahill@ioerror@hazelpress Nasser was in no position to know anything. -
@charlie_savage Are you saying Saleh's call never happened, or Nasser didn't know why it happened?@jeremyscahill@ioerror@hazelpress -
@emptywheel@jeremyscahill@ioerror@hazelpress The latter. Plus gathering of dozens AQAPers, incl Wuhaysi & Shihri, means it was targetable -
@emptywheel@jeremyscahill@ioerror@hazelpress ...amid (correct) intel saying AQAP attack on US interests imminent. Awlaki irrelevant -
@charlie_savage There's something hysterical abt your Wuhayshi/Shihri arg given Abdulmutallab evidence@jeremyscahill@ioerror@hazelpress
