Rebels, eh?

These rebels have any political or (ahem) religious affiliations?

Whew, I’m glad we released all those Gitmo terrorists to Yemen. I’m sure the rebels will hold up their end of the bargain and keep the terrorists jailed or away from their terrorist brethren, right? Right?

Bunch of damned dirty Tea Partiers no doubt.

Probably resemble children of Sarah Palin.

Yemen is closer to Mecca than is Riyadh.

Nope - just a random bunch of 'lone wolves'... probably Tea Party members... with deep tans.

Don’t you figure one of those guys is sitting in that palace right now telling his comrades what it was like being locked up in Gitmo for a few years?

Jeez, Shites in Lebanon, Syria, southern Iraq and now Yemen. I wonder if Saudi Arabia has noticed they are becoming surrounded? Gulf of Oman, heavy oil traffic.

Yep - ISIS riding high - while over here we have FOXNews showing endless tape of 'wounder warriors' and their crying loved ones.

The rebels in this case are Houthis, a Shiite group back by Iran. Could get interesting with al Qaeda there.

If Shiites took over the Grand Mosque, it would certainly change the Hajj as Islam knows it. It would be full blown civil war within Islam. VERY interesting.

Strange development. Didn’t Preezy Obola recently extol the success of his foreign policy in Yemen?

If ISIS is the JV team the Yemen group must be the WBA.
