Not So Secret Now
9:02 pm, 1/27/10
The
Washington Post has learned, via senior White House officials, that
Obama has personally approved secret operations against terrorists in Yemen.
The far-reaching U.S. role could prove politically challenging for Yemen's president, Ali Abdullah Saleh, who must balance his desire for American support against the possibility of a backlash by tribal, political and religious groups whose members resent what they see as U.S. interference in Yemen.
He probably figured it would never come up,
since it's a secret.
I hope nobody tells
Dianne Feinstein.

Now we know what the campaign against al Qaeda would have looked like in 2001 had Al Gore become President. Cue the circus music, please.

The first rule of Operational Security is to NOT DISSEMINATE the danged Operational Security rules!
