The Bush administration's approach was to take the fight to the enemy, to kill them "over there", BEFORE they come "over here".

Note the contrast -- the Obama administration is counting on tourists to foil the next terrorist attack.

Also -- note how well Yemen is doing with the money they were given, it's LAST year when Al Qaeda significantly increased their presense and set up more training camps in Yemen.

Because we want to have a dialog with them, find out why they don't like us. Then we can make it alright by giving them stuff.

Hussein is a muslim.

Democrats = The Party of Islam.

Americans = fools who will trade their TV clicker for Islamo-serfdom. The TV is what the left and Islam are using to control you suckers. Fox is 20% owned by the Saudis. Feeling like a frog on slow boil yet - keep subscribing to sat and cable TV and watching your meaningless ball games as your kids become slaves.

"The Yemeni government has demonstrated their willingness to take the fight to Al Qaeda," he said. "They're willing to accept our support. We're providing them everything that they've asked for."

They used to call it 'Tribute'.

The most this lametard jack squat administration will do is coordinate continued drone strikes and close our embassy in Yemen. Tough guys here, one and all of them. /s =.=

Looks like Al queda won this one even though the bomb didn’t go off. It caused us to show more weakness by closing the embassy and knee jerking a bunch of useless TSA security measures that did nothing to make anyone safer. Obama, you can’t win a basketball game if you don’t get off the bus.

Good, than also have the common sense to cancel and revoke all US VISA’s and immigration for any and all Yemen and/or other country that may have a Yemen trying to access the US

Well there is no war on terror or long war anymore.

Messiah king Ozero has decreed this.

He just needs to tell that to Al Qaeda in Yemen.
Surely they will understand.
