I think Obama has spent way too much time on vacation and not near enough time in the real world, if he truly believes his own B.S., that Al Qaeda is "decimated and on the run."

Yet, this is supposed to be our "model against ISIS and is our US success story?"

The White House insisted Monday that the U.S. counterterrorism strategy in Yemen is a model for the fight against the Islamic State -- despite the country being engulfed by a violent political crisis that last week led the Obama administration to remove some of its diplomats and urge American citizens to leave.

The developments -- including the firing of a rocket near the U.S. Embassy in the country's capital over the weekend -- again have raised questions about President Obama's plan for targeting Islamic State militants in Iraq and Syria. Continue Reading FoxNews

Security officials say suspected al Qaeda gunmen have overrun a key military base in Yemen’s largest province. A colonel who works at the base in Hadramawt province but who was not there when it came under attack on Monday says militants have taken control of the compound after a short gun battle with soldiers.

He says the attackers are holding captive an unknown number of high-ranking officers and soldiers inside the base.  Continue Reading NYPost
