An American-born Islamic cleric who rose to become the inspiration behind a string of al-Qaeda terror attacks has been killed by a U.S. airstrike in Yemen, launched by the same military team that killed Osama bin Laden.
The death of the American-born radical Muslim cleric Anwar al-Awlaki is a "major blow" to al-Qaida, according to president Barack Obama.
