So, what does the government of Yemen think of reports that explosive devices sent to the US originated from Yemen? Oh, they are astonished!
In a statement distributed to journalists and appearing on the official website late Thursday, the government said there were no UPS cargo planes that had taken off from Yemen or any indirect or direct flights to British or American airports.
Kind of hard to see then how any explosive devices could have originated from Yemen, right? I mean, seeing as how there were no flights, directly or indirectly, from Yemen to any British or American airports, how is it possible that somebody in Yemen could send explosives from Yemen on a cargo plane bound for the Presidents hometown of Chicago? Sent specifically to a synagogue attended by Jews, many of whom are not happy with the President and his Israeli policies, in addition possibly to other policies that pretty much sixty percent of the country is unhappy about? Right before an election which Republicans seem poised to win? If this did happen, how could the Yemenis not know about it-but the Saudis did?
Obama though is on the case, insisting in a press conference that it was a credible threat-but he and his administration is on the case.
Nice to know we don't REALLY have anything to worry about. (snort, snort).
