On 16 July 2010, the US Government declared Anwar al-Awlaki, a US-born Muslim cleric as a leader of al-Qaeda in Yemen. According to the US Government, Awlaki helped to direct the failed attempt to blow up a passenger jet over Detroit on Christmas Day, 25 Dec 2009. He has also been blacklisted by the US Treasury as a "specially designated global terrorist" as a part of the move under an executive order attempts to freeze any assets he may have under U.S. jurisdiction.
