Such a scenario could turn Yemen into something akin to Taliban-ruled Afghanistan, a sanctuary for militants from the world over where they could plot high-profile terror attacks against the United States and its allies.
Well at least we will be able to stomp a lot of Al Qaida douchebags in one place if we need too.
CBSnews
A band of al-Qaida militants took full control on Monday of a town 100 miles south of the Yemeni capital Sanaa, overrunning army positions, storming the local prison and freeing at least 150 inmates.
The capture of the town of Radda expanded already significant territorial conquests by the militants, who have taken advantage of the weak central government and political turmoil roiling the nation for the past year during an anti-regime uprising inspired by Arab Spring revolts.
Authoritarian President Ali Abdullah Saleh recently agreed to step down after months of resisting the protests against his 33-year rule. But he remains a powerful force within the country and a spark for ongoing unrest.

Yemen's Saleh vows to step down as president
And when the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie...I will leave!
That's a lot of stipulations from Pres Saleh, with all that he could hang on to power for quite a while.
CNN
Yemen's embattled President Ali Abdullah Saleh will leave office "within 90 days" of an agreement with the regional Gulf Cooperation Council, he said in an interview.
"When we agree on the GCC initiative, and when it is signed, and when we agree on structure of a power transfer -- and elections happen, the president will leave," Saleh said in the interview with France 24 television.
Saleh's country has been the scene of violent protests for months as his opponents demand he leave power after 33 years in office.
He was wounded in an attack on his compound earlier this year and spent weeks in Saudi Arabia being treated for burns. He looked healthy in the France 24 interview, which took place in Arabic and was posted online late Monday.
Saleh has appeared several times to be on the verge of agreeing to hand over power, only to change course.
But he insisted in the interview he had no desire to "hang onto power."
"I know the difficulties, the negatives, the positives, I will not hang onto power. Whoever hangs onto power I think is crazy," he said.

BBC
The US-born radical Islamist cleric and suspected al-Qaeda leader Anwar al-Awlaki has been killed in Yemen, the country's defence ministry has said.
A statement said only that he died "along with some of his companions".
Mr Awlaki, who is of Yemeni descent, has been on the run in Yemen since December 2007.
The US has named him a "specially designated global terrorist" for his alleged role in a number of attacks and he is said to be on a CIA hit list.

US Building Secret Drone Bases in Africa, Arabian Peninsula
Why not, its not like Al Qaida and its rejects want to come here and kill us if they could.
Predators are a great deterrent and an equalizer in the fight against terrorism, when they fly around a suspected terrorist camp or hold up, the sound of the engine keeps these halfwits from sleeping very well, and the thought of being taken out with a hellfire enema at any given moment has to do wonders for their stress and anxiety levels.
VOA
The United States is reported to be expanding a secret drone program in east Africa and the Arabian peninsula in order to gather intelligence and strike al-Qaida-linked militants in Somalia and Yemen.
Citing U.S. defense officials, The Washington Post reported that the U.S. is building a new military installation to host the unmanned aircraft in Ethiopia, where drones can more easily attack members of the militant group al-Shabab that is fighting for control of neighboring Somalia.
The report also said the U.S. has re-opened a drone base in the Seychelles, an island nation in the Indian Ocean, where a small fleet of "hunter-killer" drones resumed operations this month after a test mission determined that aircraft based there could patrol Somalia.
In addition, the report said the Central Intelligence Agency is building a secret airstrip somehwere in the Arabian subcontinent in order to carry out drone missions against al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula. U.S. officials say the group, based in Yemen, is al-Qaida's most active branch, and is responsible for several attempted attacks on U.S. targets.
The U.S. is reported to have already flown drones over Somalia and Yemen from installations in Djibouti

Saleh forces 'shell Sanaa protest camp'
Protest and die, the latest fad in Islam.
Syria has the obvious title of the leading trend setter, but Yemen seems to gaining some ground.
BBC
Government forces in Yemen have continued firing shells at a protester camp in the capital, witnesses say.
Explosions rocked Sanaa all night, and at least two people had died in the shelling, according to doctors.
Government forces launched a crackdown on the protesters on Sunday, killing more than 50 people in two days.
Groups of protesters have occupied various parts of the capital for most of the year, calling for the ousting of President Ali Abdullah Saleh.
Mr Saleh, who has ruled the country for more than three decades, has been in Saudi Arabia since June, when he was seriously injured in a rocket attack on his presidential compound.
The president has refused to stand down and is promising to return to the country

Clashes resume in Yemen after 26 protesters killed
More death and mayhem in the Muslim world.
Things have been calm in Yemen for about a minute, but more protesters were killed by the Government forces.
Just another day in Islam as Muslims Kill Muslims.
Reuters
Government forces and fighters backing protesters seeking President Ali Abdullah Saleh's ouster clashed anew with rocket and machine gun fire in the Yemeni capital Sanaa on Monday a day after 26 demonstrators were shot dead.
Sunday's violence, jolting an uneasy, weeks-long stalemate, was the worst in recent months. Hundreds of people in an anti-government march were wounded as well when security forces fired on protesters who charged police lines.
Opposition organizers called for more action on Monday, rousing sleeping protesters who have been camped in Sanaa's Change Square for eight months to demand an end to 33 years of autocratic Saleh rule in impoverished Yemen.

Deadly car bomb in south Yemen port of Aden
One day the people that are held Hostage by groups like Al Qaida and there terrorism will rise up and annihilate them; wiping them off the face of the Earth.
Until then, there will be Death, Destruction, Turmoil and Mayhem!
Islamic Countries... Enjoy.
Al Jazeera
A car bomb targeting a military facility has killed at least six people and wounded 15 in Aden, the main city in southern Yemen, medics and soldiers have said.
Soldiers reported to the news agency AFP, that the blast went off as troops prepared to leave the facility for Abyan province, where security forces are engaged in fierce fighting with groups suspected of ties to al-Qaeda.
"We were preparing to leave for Abyan when a car came in front of the gate of the camp, and then there was a huge explosion," said one soldier who survived Sunday's attack.
Two senior officers, a major and a lieutenant-colonel, were among the dead, said officials.
The car bomb was the second in less than two months in Aden and followed repeated warnings by officials that al-Qaeda-linked fighters were infiltrating the Arabian Sea port city to prepare for attacks there against security forces.

40 Al Qaeda Militants Escape Jail in Yemen
Excellent, sounds like a good reason to unleash the drones in Yemen.
Foxnews
SANAA, Yemen -- At least 40 Al Qaeda militants escaped from prison Wednesday in the latest sign that Yemen's political upheaval has emboldened them to challenge authorities in the country's nearly lawless south.
In a carefully choreographed escape, the militants attacked their guards and seized their weapons just as bands of heavily armed attackers descended on the prison in Mukalla on the Arabian Sea.
The escapees included militants convicted on terror charges or held in protective custody pending trial, according to officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media.

U.S. Steps Up Covert Strikes in Yemen
Nice to see we are going after Al Qaida in Yemen, this is the biggest cesspool around and is ripe for the pickens.
Anwar "Al lacky" should be toast soon.
Foxnews
WASHINGTON -- The Obama administration has intensified the covert U.S. war in Yemen, hitting militant suspects with armed drones and fighter jets, The New York Times reported late Wednesday.
The accelerated campaign has occurred in recent weeks as violent conflict in Yemen has left the government in Sanaa struggling to cling to power, the Times said.
The report, posted on the newspaper's website, said Yemeni troops that had been battling militants linked to Al Qaeda in the south have been pulled back to the capital. American officials hope the strikes will help prevent militants from consolidating power.
A drone strike by U.S. special operations forces on May 5 targeted U.S.-born Al Qaeda cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, but a malfunction caused rockets to miss him by a matter of minutes, two U.S. officials told The Associated Press. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss intelligence matters.
The recent operations come after a nearly yearlong pause in American airstrikes, which were halted amid concerns that poor intelligence had led to bungled missions and civilian deaths that were undercutting the goals of the secret campaign.

Yemen: 37 killed in Sanaa clashes
Not much yo say about Yemen, it is a cesspool.
I don't know who is right, or if anyone is right.
I just hope when it is over, Al Qaida does not have a state.
BBC
At least 37 people have been killed in overnight fighting in the Yemeni capital Sanaa, doctors and officials say.
Violence escalated after a ceasefire broke down between security forces and fighters loyal to Sheikh Sadiq al-Ahmar, head of a tribal confederation.
Analysts say the conflict threatens to drag Yemen into civil war.
Yemen is facing increasing unrest in several areas after President Ali Abdullah Saleh refused to step down.
Witnesses reported heavy fighting in the capital overnight as both sides blamed each other for breaking the ceasefire.
On Wednesday morning, witnesses also reported loud explosions coming from the north of Sanaa, but the reason was not clear.
The defence ministry accused tribesmen of seizing the headquarters of the ruling General People's Congress and other offices in Sanaa.

Cease-Fire Breaks Down Between Yemeni Army, Tribes
Yemen is falling quicker each day, yesterday they were firing live rounds into the crowds it's a total mess there.
And the Al Qaida factor, yesterday they were talking about Al Qaida having full control of a large town close to the capital, and they are prepared to take over the whole country.
So what is the world going to do when Al Qaida has its own country?
Foxnews
SANAA, Yemen -- Heavy fighting resumed Tuesday in Yemen's capital between government troops and followers of the country's most powerful tribal leader, ending a brief cease-fire and again raising the prospect that Yemen's political crisis could veer into civil war.
Government forces attacked the heavily guarded home of Sheik Sadeq al-Ahmar, who heads the most powerful tribal confederation in Yemen and has turned against the embattled president to join the protest movement that has been seeking his ouster since early February.
Al-Ahmar's armed followers fought back and reoccupied several government buildings they had seized in the first round of fighting between the sides last week. There was no immediate information on casualties.
A resident of the capital, Talal Hazza, said an artillery shell exploded outside his home and another destroyed his neighbor's house.
Hazza says the fighting is preventing ambulances from reaching the wounded.
Beyond the capital, violence has erupted in the southern city of Taiz, which has been a hotbed of anti-government protests since the early days of the uprising against President Ali Abdullah Saleh.
Soldiers backed by tanks and bulldozers have moved in to smash a tent camp in a central square in the city and also destroyed a field hospital that had been set up in anticipation of such an attack. A doctor who witnessed the attack said at least 20 people were killed on Monday.

US withdraws diplomats from Yemen amid clashes
Why we still had anybody in Yemen is a wonder, other than say some CIA, or some other covert operatives that should be lets say "Hunting".
And if you are an American and you think it is a good idea to travel to Yemen you may need your head examined.
I would love to see the Pyramids in Egypt, but I am never going there now, Video and pictures will do for me.
Yemen is one of the Biggest cesspools in the world, only beaten out by Somalia, as an American you are always a target.
BBC
The US has ordered all its non-essential diplomats and family members of embassy staff to leave Yemen as fighting there escalates.
Medical sources say 72 people have died in three days of clashes between tribal fighters and government troops.
President Ali Abdullah Saleh has again said he will not step down and leave Yemen, despite mounting protests.
He has so far refused to sign a transition deal that would see him resign in favour of a unity government.
The US State Department has also warned Americans against travelling to Yemen.

"Maybe he was looking for the bathroom"
The family of the Yemeni who tried to break into a cockpit yelling "allahu akbar" said that "maybe he was looking for the bathroom".
I know everytime before I use the bathroom, I ram the door full steam while yelling the allahu akbar war cry. Daily Mail
The Yemeni man who was wrestled to the floor after pounding on the cockpit door of a plane approaching San Francisco may have mistaken it for the bathroom.
Rageit Almurisi cannot speak English very well and could have misunderstood the signs inside the jet, his cousin claimed.
The maths teacher, who was heard yelling 'Allahu Akbar' as he allegedly battered the door, had also only been on three planes in his life and would have been unfamiliar with the layout.

Yemen al-Qaeda head Anwar al-Awlaki 'targeted by drone'
A swing and a Miss!
To bad, it would be a very awesome if we could take out the rest of the Al Qaida leaders with drones.
yes it would be nice to capture them and bring them to trial, but we would never be able to enjoy justice that way.
The current Administration would pamper them in every way possible, it just would not be good.
So drones it is, think of how that would make the Muslim world feel then, if Al Qaida were never able to do anything again and we whacked em all withe some hellfire missiles.
BBC
A US drone attack in Yemen targeted but failed to kill one of al-Qaeda's most influential figures, US reports say.
The US-born radical Yemeni cleric Anwar al-Awlaki is head of al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula.
Two brothers believed to be mid-ranking al-Qaeda officials died in a drone strike in south Yemen on Thursday, Yemeni officials said.
The attack came just days after al-Qaeda chief Osama Bin Laden was killed in Pakistan by US Navy Seals.
The Pentagon refused to comment on the reports that Anwar al-Awlaki was specifically targeted in Yemen.
According to Yemen's defence ministry, the missile fired by the drone hit a car in in the province of Shabwa carrying two brothers, identified by Yemeni officials as Musa'id and Abdullah Mubarak.
But reports from Washington now suggest US commanders had believed they had one of al-Qaeda's most valuable targets in their sights.
"We were hoping it was him," one unnamed US official told CBS News.
The reported attempt to kill Mr Awlaki is believed to be the first known US military strike within Yemen since May 2010, when missiles mistakenly killed one of Mr Saleh's envoys.

Two killed in US drone attack Saudi Qaeda chief in Yemen
Sorry Yemen Al Qaida dudes, Due to the recent death of Osama Bin Laden there will be no more Virgins For any of you, or any one after you! 
You will have to continue to be satisfied with pleasuring yourselves and each other!
Middle east online
ADEN - A US drone attacked a Saudi Al-Qaeda leader in southern Yemen on Thursday, but missed and killed two local Al-Qaeda members, a security source said.
The drone had targeted the Saudi as he drove to the home of local Al-Qaeda men, the source said, asking not to be identified. When the two local Qaeda men rushed out in their own car, they were hit and killed by the drone.
The defence ministry confirmed the killing of two brothers, Abdullah and Mubarak al-Harad, but did not elaborate on the circumstances of their deaths.
Witnesses said they saw a missile fired by an aircraft hit the two brothers in the province of Shabwa, where Al-Qaeda is well entrenched. The men died instantly.
A third person was wounded in the attack in the town of Nissab, the witnesses added

Death toll in Yemen ammunition plant rises to 150
Yemen is a country where carrying firearms is a national passion and guns outnumber the 24-million population by nearly three to one.
Nice, that means about 70+ Million Guns on the streets of Yemen.
So why are these people controlled by Al Qaida and the Militants like them?
Stupidity?
The National
ADEN, YEMEN // The number of people killed in a massive blast and fire at an ammunition plant in south Yemen that was looted by al Qa'eda has shot up to 150, a local official said on Tuesday.
The final toll for Monday's explosion at the plant near the town of Jaar has reached "150 dead and at least 80 wounded," Ahmed Ghaleb Rahawi, sub-prefect of Jaar in the southern province of Abyan where the blast took place, said.
Around 20 women and several children were among the dead.
It was still uncertain whether the blast was an accident or caused by militants.

Blasts at Yemen bullet factory kill at least 110
Wow, somebody not heed the "No Smoking sign" WTF!
(Reuters) - A series of blasts at a bullet factory in south Yemen killed at least 110 people on Monday when residents broke in to steal ammunition a day after clashes between militants and the army in the town, doctors said.
Witnesses said the blasts, possibly triggered by a cigarette, caused a massive fire in the factory in the town of Jaar in Abyan province, where al Qaeda militants and mainly leftist southern separatists are active.
"This accident is a true catastrophe, the first of its kind in Abyan," said one doctor at the state-run hospital. "There are so many burned bodies. I can't even describe the situation."
Doctors put the death toll at 110, but said that even arriving at a figure was difficult because the charred remains were difficult to count. They said some victims, including women and children, would be buried in a mass grave.
Scores were wounded, many suffering from burns, doctors said, and many bodies remained inside the factory, which also contained stores of gunpowder.

Indian navy captures 61 pirates in Arabian Sea
Nice one, 61 less pirates on the open sea.
The Indian Navy scores big with this catch, and taking the rejects to Mumbai to be prosecuted even nicer.
Foxnews
The Indian navy captured 61 pirates who jumped into the Arabian Sea to flee a gunfight and fire on the hijacked ship from which they had staged several attacks, a navy statement said Monday.
Two Indian navy ships also rescued 13 crew members from the fishing boat Sunday night, nearly 695 miles (1,100 kilometers) off Kochi in southern India, the statement said.
The pirates had hijacked the Mozambique-flagged Vega 5 in December and had used it as a mother ship — a base from which they staged several attacks in the vast waters between East Africa and India.
A patrol aircraft spotted the mother ship Friday while responding to another vessel reporting a pirate attack, the Indian navy said. The pirates aborted the hijacking attempt and tried to escape in the mother ship.
When the Indian ships closed in Sunday night, the pirates fired on them. The hijacked vessel caught fire when the Indian navy returned fire, the navy said.
The pirates as well as the crew members jumped into the sea from the burning vessel, but were taken out by Indian sailors, the statement said.

Yemen police fire on protests
More Muslim Unrest!
It is only fitting that some Muslim countries are in turmoil.
Rampant corruption, terrorism, human rights violations, daily shootings suicide bombings, Senseless murders, stonings...
Islam The Religion Of Peace
The Associated Press
SANAA, Yemen (AP) — Yemeni security forces fired live bullets and tear gas on two pro-democracy demonstrations Saturday, killing three people — including a 15-year-old student — as the government clamps down on a growing protest movement, witnesses said.
The violence began with a pre-dawn raid on a central square in the capital, Sanaa, where thousands of pro-democracy protesters have been camped out for the past month to demand the ouster of President Ali Abdullah Saleh. An ally in the Obama's administration's fight against al-Qaida, Saleh has been in power for 32 years.
Doctors and eyewitnesses said security troops surrounded the square with police cars and armored personnel carriers shortly after midnight and began calling on protesters through loudspeakers to go home. At 5 a.m., security forces stormed in, firing tear gas and live ammunition.
One protester died from a bullet to the head, which may have come from a sniper on the rooftop of a nearby building, witnesses said. Abdelwahed al-Juneid, a volunteer doctor working with the protesters, said around 250 people were wounded.
"We were performing dawn prayers when we were surprised by a sudden hail of bullets and tear gas," said Walid Hassan, a 25-year-old activist. "The protesters began throwing rocks at security ... it was total mayhem, a real battlefield."

Dearborn— Some 50 demonstrators gathered this afternoon on the steps of Dearborn City Hall to call for an end to anti-government protests in Yemen and send a message to President Barack Obama.
The mostly male rallygoers carried American and Yemeni flags and chanted unity slogans. A picture of Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh was raised above the crowd.
"We support our President Ali Abdullah Saleh. We need one Yemen and we support our scholars to advise him for dialogue and free elections, no war," said business owner Nabil Al Ghaithi, 38, a Yemeni-American who lives in Dearborn. "President Obama: Support Yemen and the free election in Yemen."
"We are trying to demonstrate that we want peace in Yemen," said Abdul Rahman El Haj, a 33-year-old autoworker who lives in Dearborn. "We do not want bloodshed over there, like in Libya. And it could get even worse than Libya, because everybody over there has their own weapons. It would be a massacre."
