		The missile fired Sunday, reportedly from a crewless Predator aircraft, hit a car carrying Ali Qaed Sinan al-Harthi, a suspected key terrorist organizer in Yemen, and five lower-level associates, the U.S. official confirmed.
		Al-Harthi was believed to be a close associate of Al Qaeda leader and Sept. 11 mastermind Osama bin Laden and was instrumental, terrorist experts say, in the planning of the attack that killed 17 sailors on a U.S. Navy destroyer as it was anchored near the port city of Aden.

	Article or Op-Ed
		And now, nine months later, although two prominent Al Qaeda terrorists and dozens of lesser operatives remain at large in Yemen, there is a sense in Washington that Sanaa is genuinely cooperating.
		The London-based Arabic daily Al-Sharq al-Awsat reports that the FBI office in Yemen is now looking for Anwar Al Aulaqi, an American of Yemeni descent who was mentioned in Congress's report on the September 11 attacks for his ties to two of the hijackers -- Nawaf Al Hazmi and Khalid Al Mihdhar.
		U.S. Marines are also training elite Yemeni forces to ferret out shadowy Al Qaeda elements, and, in late June and July, Yemeni forces arrested 37 militants in operations against the Islamic Army of Aden, a local group with known ties to Al Qaeda, in a village some 280 miles south of Sanaa.

		The six Al Qaeda suspects killed in their car Monday were not victims of a car bomb as some sources indicated immediately after the incident.
		However, according to Gulf intelligence sources cited in an Al Bawaba exclusive, the attack was launched from the USS Abraham Lincoln and "carried out by four US Navy F/A-18 'Hornet' fighter bombers."

	PakDef Forums - secret CIA assassination policy for citizens
		The president has authorized a broad discretionary use of assassination as an alternative to the capture of terrorist suspects, including citizens.
		In fact, in November, a CIA drone was used to kill a U.S. citizen, Ahmed Hijazi, who was riding in a car with Al Qaeda leader Ali Qaed Sinan al-Harthi.
		In fairness to the CIA, if anyone deserved a droning it was al-Harthi and the CIA can hardly ask for any possible citizens to exit a vehicle before it is vaporized.

	Yemen's Innovative Approach to the War on Terror
		Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Salih appears to have weathered the worst of his terrorist problem.
		To be sure, the Yemeni president has not been hesitant to order military action against hardened extremists when necessary — as he did in the November 2002 assassination of Ali Qaed Sinan al-Harthi, believed by U.S. and Yemeni authorities to be a close friend of Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda's key operative in Yemen.
		Perhaps the most interesting of these weapons is a Yemeni qadi, or religious judge, named Humud al-Hattar, who was named by Salih as "chairman of the committee for religious dialogue with Al-Qaeda supporters in Yemen" in August 2002.

		The attack took place in a remote Yemeni desert, killing the man American intelligence says ran al-Qaida in Yemen, Ali Qaed Sinan al-Harthi.
		A key Osama bin Laden aide, he is believed to be the mastermind of the attacks on the U-S-S Cole in the Yemeni port of Aden that killed 17 U-S sailors and the recent attack on a French civilian supertanker off Yemen.
		As one of al-Qaida's senior operatives, [Mr.] al-Harithi, also known as Qaed Salim Sinan al-Harithi, was a right-hand man to Osama bin Laden and likely played a role in the two-thousand (year of 2000) bombing of the U-S-S Cole.

	TIME.com: Yemen Strike Opens New Chapter in War on Terror -- Page 1
		The officially unacknowledged CIA missile strike that killed a key al-Qaeda leader on Sunday is a major tactical victory in the U.S. war on terrorism — a war whose rules and terms are quite unlike any America has ever known.
		Indeed, the assassination by Predator drone of Ali Qaed Sinan al-Harthi in the wilds of northern Yemen encapsulates much about the new war — one of covert actions, sometimes in murky circumstances, designed to disrupt the terrorists' efforts to regroup far from erstwhile sanctuaries in Afghanistan.
		Yemeni President Abdullah Ali Saleh has unambiguously chosen Washington's side in its war with al-Qaeda, arresting scores of al-Qaeda suspects — even, reportedly, bin Laden's youngest wife, 20-year-old Amal al-Saddah.

	the scmb - Bombing by CIA drone. 6 terror suspects die.
		There are claims by Yemeni officials that the persons killed (by the CIA drone) were indeed suspected members of al Qaeda (one of them tied directly to the 9/11 WTC attack).
		Now, there is little doubt in my mind that Ali Qaed Sinan al-Harthi is "guilty" as he was a top al-Qaida leader but that's not the point.
		There's no question that the U.S. is in the right to go after al Qeada terrorists.

	Unmanned Aerial Vehicles/Unmanned Combat Aerial Vechiles: Likely Missions and Challenges for the Policy-Relevant Future
		This was the first use of the Predator as a weapons platform.
		On 3 November 2002, almost a year later, a CIA-operated armed Predator flying over Yemen, with Yemen’s approval, killed a top al-Qaeda operative, Ali Qaed Sinan al-Harthi, and his five companions traveling in the same car.
		It is unlikely that political and military authorities would leave the “kill” decision to automated systems, for such a move would empower a machine to autonomously make the decision to kill a human.
