My Comment: What I find interesting about this story is not the news that Anwar al-Awlaki has been put on a "to-kill" list, it is that most main stream media publications have chosen (so far) to not report it. With the exception of Reuters, Washington Post, and FOX .... everyone else is quiet.

Hmmm .... this is interesting, because when an American is targeted for assassination by his own government, you would think that it would be front page news everywhere.
