part of what i found fascinating about the story is that you know there's a lot of smoke around a lockie did you have something to do with the underwear bomber you know he had written articles for inspire magazine which was. journal of the arabian peninsula and we don't know whether he was operationally involved with anything what we know is what we've seen on you tube of him speaking and what he's written in inspire but his case was completely litigated through leaks he was never charged with a crime no evidence was ever publicly presented against him even if even if anwar locky is guilty of every leak that john brennan and harold koh and all these people cooked up even if he's guilty of every single thing. prosecuted charged with a crime demand is extradition we don't judge who we are as a society and how we treat the popular the rich the powerful how do you treat the least of your people the poor and the most reprehensible of your citizens so for me it's not about you know a lockie is some kind of a noble character he said things i found downright offensive and reprehensible he probab

missile strikes was interviewing anwar a lockie and al qaeda leaders we would have been a great source of information for the cia and the obama administration has him rotting away in a yemeni prison he was going to be pardoned by the president of yemen and obama personally called and intervened to make sure that the pardon was ripped up this journalist is in prison to this day and his real crime was exposing u.s. missile strikes and interviewing the people the u.s. says are terrorists so what happens i mean i've interviewed people that are attached to al qaeda does that mean that what i should be in jail you know i've been reporting on these missile strikes i mean where do we stop where is the line drawn when when journalists can be put in prison i don't believe for a minute it was richard engle who had done that stuff that he be rotting in a yemeni prison right now it's because no one cares about. he's not speaking english he's reporting in arabic much of his work no one ever hears about here well especially with things like the n.d.a. in effect that actually does say if you are coord

were to blow up the airplane when it was over american soil i would have detained and prosecuted a lockie if we captured him before he carried out a plot but we couldn't and as president i would have been derelict in my duty had i not authorized the strike that took him out of course the targeting of any american raises constitutional issues that are not present in other strikes which is why my administration submitted information about a lockie to the department of justice months before a lockie was killed and briefed the congress before the strike as well but the high threshold that we've set for taking legal lethal action applies to all potential terrorist targets regardless of whether or not they are american citizens . this threshold respects the inherent dignity of every human life alongside the decision to put our men and women in uniform in harm's way the decision to use force against individuals or groups even against a sworn enemy of the united states is the hardest thing i do as president but these decisions must be made given my responsibility to protect the american people an

any documentation of the claims he's made thus far i mean if if he would rather have captured anwar locky why did he not indict him with with any criminal charges or provide any evidence to anyone that he was guilty of any criminal acts this is this is not transparency and if these reforms and limitations are needed on this program then what of the conduct of this program here to four and six not as criminal and abusive as it appears but it in effect to is me saying that the drones are necessary evil is much better to tackle this security threat that way rather than getting boots on the ground in countries what security threat what security threat was a sixteen year old boy what security threat are the thousands of victims of these drone strikes including children and women and seniors and people whose names are not known these other americans some of them including one reported by the new york times yesterday were clearly and they've admitted this much targeted in so-called signature strikes these are strikes to kill people without knowing their name based on behavior that suggests they
