Sorry for the lull in posting- I was enjoying myself too much on vacation to read the news. Right off the blocks in this new year, I suspect we're heading towards a new chapter in the "War on Terror"- this time in Yemen. Seems like a significant US action is ginning up: "Third western embassy closes in Yemen." I desperately hope that the current administration has engaged in some creative thinking about how to address terrorism in a "failed state" in some other way than the Afghan solution...
Update: Spencer Ackerman passes on a report that al Qaeda may be planning "Something Big" in Yemen. That explains the embassy closures...
Update 2: The Onion reports: "Blues Muscian to U.N.: 'Yemen Done Me Wrong'."
