Anwar al-Awlaki is 'next target after Osama bin Laden'
Anwar al-Awlaki and his followers should be the next terrorists to be “targeted” after the death of Osama bin Laden, David Cameron has said.
'Some of the arguments used to present Bin Laden's killing as lawful could also be applied if coalition forces kill Colonel Gaddafi,' the researchers said. Photo: AP

The Prime Minister said al-Awkali and his offshoot of the al-Qaeda group based in Yemen should be “wound up”.
British intelligence agencies believe Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula is the most dangerous part of bin Laden’s network.
Mr Cameron told MPs: "With respect to Anwar al-Awlaki, I am in no doubt that he is an extremely dangerous individual, who is behind some of the more recent plots we have seen.
"Clearly it would be in our interests if Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula was properly attacked and wound up.
However, he added: “We should be acting in line with international law. We are a Government under the law and that is the way we should approach things.”
