Goat Molesting? Monkey and Pig Breeding? I mean, this guy is being accused of treason, but does that really make this right? Isn't anyone going to fix this?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/5309376.stm?ls There seems no doubt that Adam Gadahn and "Azzam the American" are the same person so the articles should definitely be merged. What's the point in having two articles for the same person? Also the Adam Gadahn article is of much higher quality so the Azzam the American article should just link straight there.

this is the article MSNBC/Newsweek thinks he may have written. Without more detail on "Adam Yahiye Gadahn" I'm not going to match "Yahiye Adam Gadahn" just yet. 142.177.22.15 17:20, 27 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a link to the actual video? There is supposedly one at the ABC site, but the link doesn't work for me in any of my browsers (I tried IE, Camino, Safari for OSX). Is there any other link to it? --csloat 06:05, 12 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Boy that would be a great addition to the article, wouldn't it? I'll look around. Fernando Rizo T/C 06:36, 12 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

(never mind, those links were from 2004 or something: http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread92780/pg )

Removed the 'alleged' as there are documented cases of misbehavings by individual soldiers (see for example Abeer Qassim Hamza).

It's still alleged, though until they are proven guilty.

The Jerusalem Post: "... an American with Jewish ancestry. According to Wikipedia, he was born Adam Pearlman on September 1, 1978, the grandson of a prominent Jewish surgeon and the son of musicia..." [1]

Why is this here? I don't understand what this has to do with anything in particular. There is no content in the article that indicates why these links are presented and no context for them. Should probably be removed, no? 38.99.151.202 22:14, 11 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This section does not make it clear: who is being referred to when "Gadahn" is mentioned, it could be either Adam or his father. It is very confusing. Can someone who knows, clarify. - Abscissa 13:33, 12 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

is an American-born English-language spokesman for the al-Qaeda organization I thought there was supposed to be no such thing as an al-Qaeda organization and that what is refeered to in the media as "al-Qaeda" is a very loose grrouping of organisations and individuals ?

This picture has always looked "American" to me (and notably different from all the ones in this article). Can we get a copy of it? 141.155.59.32 01:20, 28 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Phil Gadahn's (his father) name should be linked to the Phil Pearlman article. They are one and the same. WiccaWeb 18:35, 5 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In Pakistan during 2003, Adam was asked by Khalid Sheikh Mohammed to participate in a suicide attack in Maryland, but Adam decided against it citing "he had recently married and his wife was pregnant."

• KSM: "Son, you've been selected to go on a suicide mission."
• AYG: "Gee, I'd sure like to, but …."

From the article:
On the same day, Gadahn was indicted in the Southern Division of the United States District Court for the Central District of California by a federal grand jury for treason. He is the first American charged with treason since 1952. [wikilinks redacted for purposes of quoting]
Shouldn't the last person charged be named as well? As in "He is the first American charged with treason since ______ in 1952." Just sayin'. —Micahbrwn (talk) 06:32, 7 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good suggestion. But who was charged with treason in 1952? It wasn't Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, they were charged in 1951. Aecis^Brievenbus 23:08, 7 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
