Reuters is reporting a number of significant developments coming out of Yemen concerning its offensive launched against al-Qaida and the U.S. Embassy in San’a reopening after a deadly raid deals with imminent threat.
For more on these developments go to http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/34700332/ns/world_news-mideastn_africa.
An important caveat from the piece I found interesting concerns a statement U.S. Senator Joe Lieberman (CT) made regarding his visit to Yemen in August concerning a conversation that he had with an American man working there. Lieberman’s reference to this man’s comment was made when Lieberman was speaking on a visit to Baghdad.
“Iraq was yesterday’s war. Afghanistan is today’s war and if we do not act pre-emptively now, Yemen will be tomorrow’s war.”
This gives me an opportunity to remind us all, given the context of course of these developments Reuters is reporting on, about my commentary in a previous post in this blog. As Grossman, I said assures us, “Still the sheepdog disturbs the sheep. He is a constant reminder that there are wolves in the land.”
Čuda to Yemen for launching a major offensive against al-Qaida, which respectively encouraged the U.S. embassy in San’a to reopen on Tuesday after Yemeni security forces staged a raid just outside the city.

If the United States makes war on Yemen I will give serious thought to renouncing my American citizenship. If the USA wishes to follow the path of ancient Rome and other ill-conceived empires, the end result will be the same.
