Official says US hunting Yemeni-American cleric
None
White House press secretary Robert Gibbs says the US is actively hunting American-born Yemeni cleric Anwar al-Awlaki.
The radical cleric is calling for the killing of American civilians, in a new video released Sunday by Yemen-based al-Qaeda offshoot, al-Qaeda of the Arabian Peninsula. The White House spokesman says President Barack Obama will continue to take action directly against terrorists like al-Awlaki, and keep the US safe from what Gibbs calls "murderous thugs." (AP)
