This is good news for the season, although at this time it is still unconfirmed:
Al-Alwaki, the terrorist Imam who advised Nidal Al Hasan and counseled him that it is OK by muslim standards to kill American troops... He may have died today in a raid in Yemen on an Al-Queda gathering...

U.S. Military Attacks al Qaeda in Yemen for Second Time
Second Attack in A Week May Have Targeted Imam Who Advised Ft. Hood Shooter
By PIERRE THOMAS
Dec. 24, 2009—
It appears that Yemen is emerging as a focal point in the U.S. government's ongoing war against terror. For the second time in a week, an attack against suspected al Qaeda operatives was launched in Yemen with U.S. support, sources tell ABC News. A radical imam associated with the suspect in the recent Fort Hood massacre could be among the dead.
Thursday, Yemen's embassy in Washington, D.C. released a statement confirming the attack. "Today, Yemeni fighter jets launched an aerial assault at 4:30 AM, on a remote location in the province of Shabwa," Yemeni officials said. "The assault targeted a meeting of senior al Qaeda operatives, 403 miles south east of Sana'a, the capital of Yemen. Preliminary reports suggest that the strike targeted scores of Yemeni and foreign Al-Qaeda operatives."
Among those targeted: Nasser Al-Wuhayshi, the regional al Qaeda leader and his deputy, Saeed Al-Shihri. Also presumed to be at the gathering of suspected militants, Anwar Al-Awlaki, the radical imam who exchanged emails with Nidal Hassan, the U.S. Army officer accused of murdering soldiers at Fort Hood. In a series of recent interviews, the imam said that Hasan had discussed with him whether it was appropriate to kill U.S. soldiers.
U.S. officials told ABC News Thursday they were hopeful those targeted had been killed, but still were awaiting official confirmation.
The assault came just a week after a series of attacks at the direction of President Obama himself, sources tell ABC News. White House officials told ABC News that the orders for the U.S. military to attack the suspected al Qaeda sites in Yemen last week came directly from the Oval Office. The action represented a major escalation by President Obama in his efforts to go after the terror group in yet another country. The U.S. military used cruise missiles in the attacks on two separate locations in Yemen.

Oh yes, Obama was quick to kill this inconvenient mouthpiece who disproves the theory of "victimized Muslim lone shooter" about hassan. This imam was the undeniable proof that this attack was due to Islam and that jihad is a serious problem america must deal with. Killing this animal was Obama's way of covering up the evidence and sweeping it under the table. "See no evil, hear no evil"

The term, suspected "militants" that the writer of the article used is disturbing. They are TERRORISTS, not militants.

The good news but the better new is still awaited.
