He was something like the Charlie Kirk of Al-Qaeda.
Interesting analogy. Charlie Kirk was an earlier version of Alwaki.
He was indeed a propagandist like Charlie Kirk. But he also was involved in operational plans to attack Americans.
"Anwar al-Awlaki was directly involved in operational planning and direction for attacks against the United States as a senior leader of Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP). U.S. intelligence and declassified government documents confirmed he transitioned from an inspirational figure to an active operational planner."
"Alwaki was directly linked to multiple terrorism plots in the United States and United Kingdom, including an attempt in December 2009 to blow up a jetliner bound for Detroit. He had morphed from a mainstream Muslim into one of al-Qaeda's most public personalities and influential voices in large part because of his numerous online sermons and propaganda videos that allowed him to spread his message around the world."
