In the last few months of the Bush admin, intelligence emerged showing that there was an active alqaeda base in Yemen that was a threat to the government there. Obama has known this for a year now, but has ignored it. Why? Because of his plan to release 60 Gitmo detainees to Yemen. Now in the wake of the Christmas Terrorist, Obama is between a rock and a hard place. He can pretend there is no problem in Yemen, and essentially send them reinforcements. Or, he can acknowledge that he can't really close Gitmo at all. I'm sure he'll do the right thing for our safety and not base it on politics, LOL!
