President Obama has confirmed that one of Al Qaeda's most influential figures, the American-born cleric Anwar al-Aulaqi has been killed in Yemen. He said Mr al-Aulaqi had taken a leading role in planning and directing efforts to murder innocent Americans and US would remain vigilant against terrorist threats.
奥巴马总统已经证实“基地”组织最有影响力的人物之一奥拉基已在也门被杀，奥拉基是一位美国出生的神职人员。奥巴马说，在计划和指导谋杀无辜美国人的行动中，奥拉基起到主导作用，美国将继续对打击恐怖威胁保持警惕。

"We make no mistake. There's further prove that Al Qaeda and its affiliates would find no safe haven anywhere in the world. Working with Yemeni or other allies and partners we would be determined, we would be deliberate, we would be relentless, we would be resolute in our commitment to destroy terrorist networks that aimed to kill Americans."
“我们没有错，事实进一步证明，基地组织及其成员在世界上没有任何地方安全的避风港。我们将与也门或其他联盟伙伴们一起，深思熟虑、毫不留情、坚定不移地致力于摧毁意在杀害美国人的恐怖网络。”

US and Yemeni officials earlier said Mr. al-Aulaqi's convoy was attacked by an American drone. The latest operation is also reported to have killed three other militants. Frank Gardner reports.
美国和也门官员早些时候说，奥拉基的车辆被一架美国无人驾驶机击中。根据最新的报道，还有另外三名武装人员被杀。Frank Gardner报道。

It was the briefest statement by the Yemeni government this morning that announced the biggest blow to Al Qaeda since the killing of Osama Bin laden this May. Possibly the organization's most inspirational cleric and ideologue in the middle east,  Anwar al-Aulaqi has been killed in an airstrike in a joint US-Yemen operation. It follows a controvertial executive order signed by president Obama last year to hand down and kill al-Aulaqi who is a US citizen. Using the internet al-Aulaqi encourged his followers to attack western targets. He's been blamed for inspring US army major Nidal Hassan to kill his fellow soldiers in Texas.
今天上午，也门政府发表简短声明，声称这是自今年五月击毙本拉登以来对“基地”组织的最大打击。阿拉基可以说上是中东地区该组织最鼓舞人心的神职人员和理论家。他已在美国-也门军队联合作战的空中打击中被击毙。之前在去年，奥巴马总统签署了一份具争议性的行政命令，即击毙作为美国公民的奥拉基。奥拉基借助网络，鼓励其追随者攻击西方目标。美国军队Nidal Hassan少校在德克萨斯州杀死属下士兵一案就与奥拉基鼓动有关。

The Afghan president Hamid Karzai says he's suspending efforts to talk to the Afghan Taliban and will focus instead on dialogue with Pakistan in efforts to bring security to the country. Jill McGiving reports.
阿富汗总统卡尔扎伊称，为了给国家带来安全，他将暂停与阿富汗塔利班对话的努力，将重点放到与巴基斯坦的对话上来。Jill McGiving报道。

President Karzai told religious leaders in Kabul that if Afghanistan wanted to pursue peace talks, its only dialogue partner was Pakistan. He couldn't talk to the Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar, he said, because he couldn’t be found and neither could the Taliban council. Therefore, he added, "we can not talk to anyone but to Pakistan". It's the clearest statement yet that the Afghan government may have abandoned its attempt to political dialogue with the Taliban. The recent murder of Afghanistan's main negotiator Burhanuddin Rabbani threw its policy into chaos.
卡尔扎伊总统告诉喀布尔的宗教领袖，如果阿富汗要寻求和平谈判，它唯一的对话对象就是巴基斯坦。他说，他不会与塔利班领导人毛拉穆罕默德奥马尔对话的，因为根本就找不到此人，也找不到塔利班委员会。因此，他说，“我们只能与巴基斯坦对话，除此别无他人。”这是阿富汗做出的最清晰的声明，然而，阿富汗政府或许已经放弃与塔利班进行政治对话的努力。最近，阿富汗主要协调者拉巴尼遇害，这使该国政治陷入混乱。
