At Least 20 US Special Forces Troops Are On The Ground In Yemen
http://www.businessinsider.com/us-troops-officially-in-yemen-2012-5
A group of around 20 U.S. special operations forces are on the ground in Yemen, reports the Los Angeles Times.
At least one of those troops was shot and seriously wounded on Sunday near the Red Sea city of Hudaida, reports Reuters.
The group is operating from a Yemeni base and using technology such as satellite imagery, drone video and eavesdropping systems to pinpoint targets while military actions intensify, according to U.S. and Yemeni officials.
The contingent of troops is expected to grow and are working in concert with the campaign of airstrikes against al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula.
Well, that's not exactly what xchrom said, so just assume Bushitler did that. (http://www.democraticunderground.com/1002710789#post3)
Lurking DUmmies: this war was undeclared and not voted on by Congress. It wasn't blessed by smudging, and so far I don't see any evidence that the United Nations sanctioned 0bama's chickenhawk assault on Yemen. When are you going to march on Washington?

Liberals always love a war when a Democrat gets involved in them. But think it is criminal when a Republican gets involve in them. How many is this under Obama now? 4?
