US Embassy in Yemen stormed

[CapLock]

Can you film me taking a shit on that before you throw it in the fire?

I say we encircle all US Embassies with Claymore mines. 3 deep and 3 tall.
Point them all at the Interior of the embassy wall, so if you are inside of the outer perimeter when it detonates, Allah will receive you.

If you are outside of the wall, you get to bear witness to what happens if you breach the wall.

It's not surprising that Yemen blew up. That country has been one of Obummer's playgrounds for drone warfare. He's let the Yemen government take credit but everybody knows it's the US. I believe they're called 'signature strikes'. Blow up a group of people looking suspicious. It's the best recruiting tool Al Quaeda has.

A few journalist braver than smart have gone into the backcountry there. People got real pissed off about family being blown up so most every place is flying the Al Quaeda black flag. Some of the more hardcore libertarian types like to talk about blowback but it isn't in the vocabulary of the Republicrats.

isn't that always the way . we help the other guy then the other guy turns on us .

Marcos
Noriega
Saddam Hussein
Mujahedin
Etc.

...The U.S. does a lot of things well, but learning from past mistakes with regard to foreign policy isn't one of them.

All those kuckleheads from both parties sound like a High school student government trying to stop a hells angel's riot: you are going to the principals office.

indeed we were, the man they killed was our primary link to the Libyan resistance.

At least they didn't get inside in Yemen. At least we're running out of countries for this. good luck storming the embassy in Iraq, Jordan seems fairly quiet and the Saudies will keep a tight lid on unrest.

(yes I'm probably mangling some spelling)

I'll say this about Jordan, they're the only ME country aiding the mission in Afghanistan (and they're the biggest bunch of yellow bellies I've ever dealt with). I don't believe they will jump on this, but how much longer until the rest of these countries follow suit? Yemen, Libya, Egypt, who's next? And if this joke of an administration continues to do absolutely jack and/or shit about it, how long until they start thinking it's fair game on US everywhere?

I did just watch an episode of Homeland last night and Claire Danes made a very good observation: America is on a knife edge right now, and all it would take to push us over the brink is another attack on us. Anyone else think these overseas issues aren't really hitting home for a lot of people? I'm worried, how much longer until another attack on the homeland?

Yeah, I get all my hard-hitting political & end-of-the-world apocalyptic information from Claire Danes too.
