Eric Holder Northwestern University Speech To Address Targeted American Killings Overseas, Sources Say

This article is from Huff Post 

Attorney General Eric Holder is expected to outline the legal framework for the use of lethal force in targeted killings of Americans overseas in a major speech at Northwestern University law school, an Obama administration official said Sunday night.

Holder's speech Monday comes five months after the killing of U.S.-born al-Qaida cleric Anwar al-Awlaki in Yemen in a drone attack.

The official said the attorney general plans to say that lethal force is legal under a Sept. 18, 2001, joint congressional resolution. The Authorization for Use of Military Force enacted a week after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks authorizes the use of all necessary force in order to prevent any future acts of international terrorism against the United States.

News: ESL education is an asset to immigrants

Not only is English considered the international language, but knowing how to speak, write and understand it is an essential in English speaking countries. Tovin Lapan of the Las Vegas Sun recently wrote an article about immigrants in the U.S.A. who are seeking to improve their English skills for a very competitive job market. Often, employers in English speaking countries will turn away qualified applicants for jobs if they cannot speak English. You can read more about this here:

Adam Melchor did not have trouble finding work in construction when he first arrived in Las Vegas in 2005.

The 43-year-old Mexican immigrant, who was sponsored by relatives here, found abundant opportunities in the construction industry even though he could not speak a word of English.

“For the first couple of years it was easy to find work,” he said in Spanish. “Now, there is nothing.”
