Al Qaeda members and supporters in Yemen held a massive rally 4 days ago in a remote area of the poor Muslim country. The members declared war against the US just days before the attempted plane bombing on a flight from The Netherlands to Detroit. The plot to blow up an American passenger jet over Detroit was organized and launched by al Qaeda leaders in Yemen.
Men claiming to be leaders of al Qaeda have made a rare public appearance in Yemen, telling an anti-government rally the fight is against the US, not the country’s army. The statement was made at an al Qaeda training camp in southern Yemen – the same one that was attacked by the Americans leaving more than 30 dead. Al Jazeera’s Tarek Bazley has this exclusive report.
The Jawa Report posted video that shows how easy it is for terrorists to build their explosives.

This news was buried. Then someone tried to blow up a plane. President B+ will have his myrmidons in the MSM bury it some more until a whole lot of Americans are killed. At that moment, we will see spinning by the Left the likes of which we haven’t seen since the LAST terrorist attack on this country and our citizens. (Read: Hasan).

Two sorties with CBU’s over that gathering would rid the country of half the terrorist.

“O”s outreach to the muslims has been as effective as his Hope and Change.
We are in deep doo-doo, folks.

Not “with us or against us” any more (really, only for a short time anyway) – now it’s against us or against us.

I pulled this from HOTAIR:http://hotair.com/archives/2009/12/26/video-northwest-253-passengers-tell-of-thwarted-terror-attack/
Video: Northwest 253 passengers tell of thwarted terror attack; Update: Bomber’s dad reported him to feds? Update: Hoekstra says “may” have been in contact with Awlaki
It’s obvious that the enemy within, Obama and his communist friends in Congress have dismantled our security in this country. It’s obvious they don’t take warnings seriously anylonger, Hassan, and now this. I’ve come to the conclusion that we can’t depend on the the most basic of Obama’s responsibilities under the Constitution being followed, and he is allowed to continue on this treasones path of his, and the democrats/communists. If this guy is not investigated and removed soon, many people are going to die because of him, and the traitors in Congress. All they care about is passing an unconstitutional health care bill, to honor a murderer Ted Kennedy.

There is no explanation how a person who allegedly has been on a suspected terrorist list, benn given an Ameircn Visa?
The Nigerian government, which is said to be corrupt by th MSM, did not issie the Visa, it ws the Americn government, that was responsible for letting this “suspicious terrorist”, get on the plane.
tennismom commented:
If these guys openly ‘declared war’ on us, doesn’t our federal government have a national security obligation to take them out?
Given our military superiority, eliminating this threat should be like an elephant stomping on a mouse. KABOOM. They meet the virgins before they get a chance to squeak.
If we don’t strike at least one target in Yemen in the next few days, one can only conclude that our government sees no obligation to protect us from an obvious threat.
On a more personal note, two of my kids will be flying off to college next year, flying home for vacations, on commercial flights. Will they face a greater threat in the air? Or more humiliating and time consuming ‘security’ procedures?
Seeing those scrawny b words on YouTube gives me something to think about when I lift weights.

Isn’t Islam the religion of peace? Where are the “peaceful” muslims speaking out against this crime? {crickets chirping}
OUTsider commented:
Our progressive brothers and sisters seem to think that somehow they and theirs will never be victims of terror. Appeasement is a sign of weakness, as Churchill tried to tell the progressive jackasses that humbled themselves before Hitler.
If 9/11 has gotten us to this place of passivity and appeasement, what will it take to move us to real action? It really is scary.
chuck in st paul commented:
I think these guys have been watching ‘The Mouse That Roared’ with sub titles. I don’t think they got the part where they’re supposed to surrender and then get all the millions in aid.
Apparently they think they can get America to surrender. Oh wait… Didn’t Teh Won do that on his last trip? Oh well, I guess they did watch and take notes then.
Militant Conservative commented:
These guys live in Stateless States, countrys that are so weak terrorists run them. The current occupant of the WH is O.K. with chaos and death of the citizen’s of the U.S. This facilitates his goal of Hoax and Chains. Meanwhile gear up to battle either the terrorists here on our soil or your govenment or both.
powder is dry……..
YeahRight commented:
I thought the whole Islam/Muslim/Islamofacisist world has already declared war on the US through their million jihads???
Well as Allah just told me to tell them….may Allah splatter pigs blood all over your mouths!!!
Agent99 commented:
Militant Conservative…..Right on!! And on Fox….it was noted by me that the FBI is on the case. Yep!!! CIA is a dead duck. That’s stupidly dangerous. And yet it fits in with THE PLAN of BHO!!!! We will be hit. We most certaintly will. But the Elitists think they are immune. Well BHO is. But not the peons.

Taken For Action commented:
“We” are already pushing back in YN (Yemen)
in a variety of ways, with a variety of people.
Subs are putting TLAMs in people’s houses, and are being supported by Navy E-2s and UAVs above, and human intelligence assets on the ground.
Of various flavors.
Emphasis on “various flavors”. CIA HUMINT was hamstrung (Clinton administration), politicized (Bush administration) and promptly vilified and systematically destroyed (Obama administration).
DIA and JSOC human and signal intelligence outfits did not suffer the same fate. They’ve been kicking ass, and deserve much of the credit for every major intelligence success since mid-2002 forwards. These include Saddams capture, Zarqawi’s death, the Somalia raid this year, and the Pakistan/Baluchistan hits.
Carbon Monoxide commented:
Now that we are at war, can we start killing people? Declare war. Attack relentlessly. Hang the traitors.
jann commented:
Why aren’t we bombing their mosques for every attempt of terrorism towards us? We need to do something different besides our military in Afghanistan. We need to hit the big ones, not in some strip mall. Enough is enough!
