a remote-controlled Predator aircraft to launch a missile at suspected al-Qaeda members in Yemen, killing six. America considers al-Qaeda members to be military targets, "combatants" under international law.
However, the United Nations charter forbids a nation to intervene in the internal affairs of a country with which it is not at war. BUSH to Yemen: Either your with us or against us.

However, the 12/8 date and any corroborating (or contrary) details will be the reference point for US response, not necessarily the target or trigger date for US action. I'm sure Bush will continue to let Saddam have, as they say in the west, "enough rope to hang himself".
