I would assume the Yemen government.

I read that they actually were the ones that blew the whistle on possible attacks. Of course, I know everything on the internet is true./s

Anybody hear anything about what Obama's directive is about capturing Terrorists on the Battlefield?
We must be holding some, but where and what are they doing with them is the question.
We all know that Zero isn't sending them to Cuba.

Your post is hilarious, however, I do think having to listen to 25 of zero’s greatest speeches constitutes cruel and unusual punishment. Might even work better than water boarding.

This could be a panic move by the Obama Administration to make him look good and enhance his sagging popularity at home. How do we know they’re really bombing terrorists and not just picking targets at random as a show of force?
