#3 having spooked the baddies with Predators, we now wait for the cell phones to light up in panic. I wonder what the Goverment of Yemen gets for all this altruism.

#4 Anybody else surprised at the speed at which the Marines got deployed to Kenya? Remember, its all about logistics. Getting the men there is one thing, but then you got to have the means to feed them house them and keep them ready with spares and supplies.

Apparently, we've got all of that working well enough to drop a whole battalion of Marines and their equipment into central Kenya, one week after the bombing.

Not bad.........
