So much for no terrorist attacks on US soil...

I never liked that talking point.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth

This is exactly the same as the embassy bombings in Kenya and TZ. This one didn't the the whole damn building with it though. Alright, so maybe it's not a HUUUUUGE attack, but it still is one.

its definately an attack, Yemen is OBL's homeland and the nesting grounds for a lot of his base, but it isnt on US soil. Nice try though Wink

I wonder if Obama will sit down and to the terrorists to tell them to hopenchange?

This doesn't make sense. The man was born in Riyadh. Or could I claim Greece as my homeland if my mother had been born there?

The huge Bin Laden family is from Yemen, where they built the Middle East's biggest and best known construction company. (they built the temples at Mecca and Medina) The family has enormous political influence and many allies in the country. Of course the entire family (or any of it) isnt involved with Al Qaeda, but Yemen has always served as a solid base of operations for Al Qaeda with plenty of support. See: USS Cole.
