The scene should be checked for traces of “Obama 2008” t-shirts and/or bumperstickers.
The ten killed weren’t Muslims?
Al-Qaida has infiltrated the Yemeni police and military. The Iranian-sponsored “Believing Youth” movement is also becoming a problem. All Fulbright scholars who were scheduled to study abroad in Yemen last year were pulled out. AQ has attempted to attack the oil production facilities there as well. The State Department has a travel warning for Yemen. The place is not safe by any means. Prayers for the victims.
This will accelerate as the days and hour pass, and where it will end, I can't say.
It might be the impetus for the idea that we could end this with a push of a button.
Corrected!
When you count those killed, you don't count the sub-human crap who committed the atrocity!
This is the “country” to which the bulk of the remaining guests of Club Gitmo are to be returned...
So the yemenis can turn them loose to return to the jihad...
I was assuming that the 10 dead were good guys but you have a point - I guess I don’t know that for sure.
Muslims fight at the side of our men both in Afganistan and in Iraq. None of these killed were Americans.
P1ssing on allies is stupid and counterproductive.
Religion is often a mere cultural inheritance. This is true of “Christians” as well as “Muslims”.
Far more Muslims have been killed by these lunatics than Americans.
First the USS Cole now this.
Bomb Yemen.
Next time summarize.
Roooooters: Car bombs at U.S. embassy in Yemen kill 16

New York Times: 16 Are Killed in Attack on U.S. Embassy in Yemen

Even President Bush won't call them terrorists:
"This attack is a reminder that we are at war with extremists who would murder innocent people to achieve their ideological objectives," he said.The source for his quote is the AFP story linked above."One objective of these extremists as they kill is to try to cause the United States to lose our nerve and to withdraw from regions of the world, and our message is -- is that we want to help governments survive the extremists, we want people to live normal lives."
Give Free Republic a break. Post a link. If you don’t know how, FReep mail me and I’ll show you how. It’s very simple.
The Yemeni Ulamas Society: liars and hypocrites practicing Taqiyya.
The Mohamaden terrorists would love for you to create a few thousand martyrs .
We have to be satisfied with doing our best to kill those who attack us or make serious plans to attack us, and discouraging others from trying or thinking of attacking us.
You are correct. We should be GRATEFUL that our interests keep getting attacked in that nation, why it is a hate crime to even mention the U.S.S. Cole!
(sarcasm)
Let the Mohammedan terrorists be the ones who murder indiscriminately.
