Hookers I understand, BUT NPR! Disgusting. Didn't he have any standards?

From Breitbart:
FBI Notes: Al-Awlaki Hung with NPR, Hired Prostitutes After 9/11
According to FBI documents released after a Judicial Watch Freedom of Information Act request, terrorist cleric Anwar Al-Awlaki, who was killed in 2011 by a drone strike in Yemen, spent his days immediately after 9/11 patronizing hookers and hanging with NPR.

November 15, 2001 notes state Al-Awlaki went to NPR to appear on �Talk of the Nation: �2PM parked on Mass. Ave�2:08 NPR radio station�2:38 off the air � Islam?� During late 2001 and early 2002, Al-Awlaki also utilized high-end prostitutes, with one prostitute telling the FBI that he resembled Osama Bin Laden. In 1996 and 1997, Al-Awlaki was charged with solicitation.
Title of the post is from one of the comments at the site. This is a culture than needs to be pounded back into the dirt -- so much potential but so much corruption. False prophet and a culture of fear, not love. From Canada's National Post:
Pakistan teen sisters murdered in �honour killing� over video of them dancing in the rain
Two teenage girls have been shot dead in an apparent honour killing in Pakistan after a video was circulated showing them dancing in the rain.

The girls, aged 15 and 16, are seen running around wearing traditional dress, covered in green and purple headscarves, outside their stone bungalow in the town of Chilas, in the far north of the country.

Local media named them as Noor Basra and Noor Sheza, the daughters of a retired police officer. According to Dawn newspaper, five masked men barged into their house and opened fire last Sunday. Their mother was also killed.

The report said police believed that the crime was motivated by a video clip circulated on mobile telephones. The short film, shot six months ago, shows the girls smiling and laughing as they run around their home, breaking into a dance.

An initial investigation, quoted by Dawn, suggested that the girls� stepbrother, named as Khutore, considered the video an �assault on the honour of his family� and carried out the attack. Officers are also examining whether a property dispute or an audio clip � in which the girls are apparently heard talking to an unknown man � might be a motive.
And your question is?
