Is anyone else worried about the YEMEN Embassy Attack?
The Yemen attack shows AQ is getting stronger, and bolder.

If Al Queada is this coordinated to pull off this attack, what makes you think they can't pull off another larger attack?

next question

Are people in our government paying attention, or are they again ignoring all the warnings?

7. They need an excuse to go into Iran, never mind Al Qaida has nothing to do
with Iran... but most muricans don't know that

So this attack on the embassy may be the excuse they need to launch against Iran... and a new war will be another election changing event... and yes they are that cynical

2. Do we know that AQ did it?
Is that the same AQ that did NYC? If so I think Shooter already has that one covered. Don't make yourself crazy. peace, Kim

4. it just seems like the USS Cole
they didn't know until later that Osama and AQ were involved. But we should be concerned, who ever did this has backing and they are coordinated. I am assuming AQ is responsible for this attack.

5. I am neither worried nor surprised by it - and yes, there will be more
Why on earth would anyone be surprised that one of our embassies is bombed? What surprises me is that all of them aren't bombed.

I'm not sure what you see as coordination either. I don't see it a monumental feat of coordination to get 3 lunatics to strap on bombs all at the same time and then get them to one place. I did not see it as a monumental feat of coordination to get 20 fanatics airplane tickets on the same day on flights at about the same time either. None of this shit requires great coordination, talent, or brains. High School kids that take in guns and shoot everyone in sight face about the same obstacles and they manage to get it done from time to time.
