Time for complete travel and immigration ban from nations of the Saudi Peninsula, Pakistan and North Africa.

Am sure Obama will do the opposite - bring in more.

[Husker24]

Why would we take a side here? It’s Alqueda vs Iran. I say grab the popcorn.

[livius]

Not a good thing. I read earlier today that they had stopped oil production.

Obama’s 5 recently released Soldiers of Islam must have arrived.

Drop your bombs between the minarets.

I was talking about evacuating the embassy. I don’t think we should take sides either.

[Zuse]

Whichever side loses, B0 will grant them special refugee status and settle them in red states.

[Capt. Tom]

Didn’t we just send a few high risk GITMO prisoners there?

Those high risk prisoners would side with Sunni Al- Qaeda.

The revolt in Yemen is coming from Shias, backed by Iran.

Civil strife could end up being like Syria, Muslims fighting other Muslins.

We should stay out of it.- Tom

How’s that arab springy thingy workin’ out for ya’ hussein?

Rebels capture state media building

[dfwgator]

Exactly..we need to encourage as much Muzzie-on-Muzzie killing as possible.

I apologize in advance

I don’t know who owns these pictures. I think the first came from CBS News and the second from NBC News websites, but where they came from I have no clue.

I hope this isn’t the modern equivalent of Germany taking Poland.

Al Qaeda fights Iranian Proxies?

Get me some popcorn!

Is there now or has there ever been a muslim country that did not have bouts of savagery, turmoil or violence?

The Ottoman Empire was quite stable for 500 years or so.

Only plus is shia and sunni killing each other. Doubt there are many Christians or Jews there.

Otherwise lots of bad stuff could happen.

"YEMEN INFORMATION MINISTER SAYS GOVERNMENT HAS LOST CONTROL OVER COUNTRY"

Guy must be related to Sherlock Holmes. Yemen's been out of control for quite some time.
