U.S. intelligence officials are seeking to confirm reports that Omar Hammami, the American-born leader of an Al Qaeda-aligned terror group in Somalia, has been executed. At this time, there is no confirmation that he has been killed. However, if substantiated, his death will have a significant impact on al-Shabaab's recruitment efforts and influence over Westerners inspired by Hammami.
