Terrorism in Sanaa

The US embassy in Yemen was attacked by an Islamic terrorist group today, and 10 people were killed—six Yemeni soldiers and four civilians. This AFP article says “16 killed,” because they’re including the six terrorists.

A shadowy group calling itself Islamic Jihad in Yemen claimed responsibility and threatened similar strikes against the British, Saudi and United Arab Emirates missions in the Yemeni capital.

That’s pretty shadowy, all right. You think maybe the words “Islamic Jihad” are some kind of clue?
