#1 this brings up an interesting point re: yemen. IIRC Yemen is historically a major Shia center. While AQ seems able on occasion to make common cause with Iran and Hezbollah, generally Salafists dont get on too well with Shia (eg Pakistan) Anyone know what the situation is in Yemen, as far as rivalry between Shia and Wahabi camps there?
