SAN`A, Yemen — Yemeni authorities have released 113 militants belonging to the Al Qaeda network — including at least five once accused of involvement in the deadly bombing of the USS Cole — after they recanted their extremist views, security officials said Thursday.

The militants once accused in the USS Cole bombing were later cleared. The 15 Yemeni militants convicted in August of involvement in the 2000 bombing, which killed 17 U.S. sailors, were not released.

The 113 men were released during the past two weeks after signing pledges not to carry out terror acts or criminal activities. LoL!!!

Forgive me, the mind isn't what it used to be but wasn't Yemen the end destination for that ship that was caught carrying North Korean missiles?

Yeah, Saudi Arabia is "cracking down" on terrorists, too. The muslim countries are a bunch of scumbags, all of them.

And since they are related to the thousands of Yemeni already in the US, lay out the welcome mat and get the goat meat cooked! They'll be here soon.

Why go to Iraq when the pickings are much better here.

I hate to say it...but most of these guys would have no problem getting into the US.

Lovely!

Now they are back to work terrorizing us again.

A terrorist has NO honor or redeeming qualities.

I don't think Pakistan is much of a threat, except their terrorist friends the tribal districts harbor.

You have got to be kidding about France. France only retreats when others attack.
