As the Obama administration claims that there is no military solution to militant attacks in Iraq, Ukraine, and Syria, White House National Security Advisor Susan Rice has added Yemen to the list.
As in Syria, there is no military solution to the crisis in Yemen, Rice said during a speech at the Arab American Institutes Kahlil Gibran Gala on Wednesday.
Rices stark assessment of the current situation in Yemen is the latest indication that the administration is quietly backing away from touting the fight against terrorists in Yemen as a success story.

Barry’s ditz speaks!
If there’s no military solution, is she saying we should “invest” in those areas to bring about peace and order?
I think she means that we need to provide them with jobs and that should solve the problem.
Funny how the Houthis are all about the “military solution”.
Rice will only call for a “military solution” when a weapon wielded by an Islamic terrorist is actually in her face.
Is it still a huge success like Brak Ubama stated, Ms Rice?
There is no military solution anywhere for a militarily inept administration.
But I thought Yemen was Obunghole’s big success story (?)
You mean maybe a teachable moment and some job fairs just for good measure? That should be all it takes to bring calm to the region.
There was no military solution to Nazi Germany or Imperial Japan either, right?
Yemenis need jobs just like ISIS does...otherwise they’ll go Baltimore on us.
Doesn’t it make you feel safe knowing we have a Military Expert currently serving as the Presidents National Security Adviser?????
No military solution to anything with an enemy islamist as CIC.
Except to turn it on us.
Oh My ,someone wrote words on a piece of paper in crayon and she found it
The other side disagrees.
There was a lot of talk by Earnest about Os National Security Team assessing the protocols of a drone attack.
Was that a signal?
Could it be that the Ntl Security imbecile who screwed-up the protocols that killed an American doctor...who signed off on the drone attack..... will be getting the boot?
And I do mean moron Suzan Rice.
Rice better hurry---Marie Harf is going after the only available job these two are qualified for: cleaning toilets at the Grehound bus station.
The Commemorative Susan Rice Video Room is on the lower level (/snix).
“Funny how the Houthis are all about the ‘military solution.’”
It’s ironic that in fact there will be a military solution in Yemen. Does she think there will be a free and open election where citizens will choose between the “al Qaeda Party” and the “Houthis Party?”
Of course there will be a military solution in Yemen, and it will be the one chosen by the Obama Administration.
Maybe all they need are midnight basketball and free school lunches.
