Just from reading over the history of Yemen and Jane's blog, it seems that al Qaeda influence in Yemen is about as strong as al Qaeda's influence in the Sudan.
If the Bush administration isn't already aware of this, they have some significant problems.
I can't believe what passes for professional punditry in Yemen:
If Houthists consider non-tummyists insects and dung, their Slogan is: "Death to America, Death to Israel" ..
..if you like racists and backward people and is enamored with the use of a backfiring gun, then it is your business..
You can always tell the zealots by the cheesy dialogue. Non-tummyists?
Isn't it hysterical? But Mary's got the right point. al-Qaeda is swarming through the top levels of the Yemeni govt and military and business. they are targeting more than the shia, also the reformers and secularists and moderate sunnis
