The document, certified by the United States Information Agency, shows USAID providing full tuition funding for Anwar al-Awlaki, listed as a Yemeni student under a J-1 exchange visa program, though he was actually a U.S. citizen born in New Mexico. Officials encouraged the false Yemen birthplace claim to qualify him. Al-Awlaki later earned his civil engineering degree around 1994, but his path shifted after 9/11, leading him to al Qaeda leadership in Yemen until a 2011 U.S. drone strike. The resurfaced paperwork, first public in 2015 and highlighted again recently, spotlights vetting risks in taxpayer-funded programs.
