Yemen promises to clobber terrorism
  • Yemen will not tolerate any form of terrorism on its territory and will strike offenders with an "iron fist," Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh said. During a tour of eastern Yemen, he also said that two suspects wanted by the United States in the October 2000 bombing of the USS Cole in Yemen must turn themselves in. "They are innocent until proven guilty and they will be questioned and a court of law will issue its decision," Saleh said.

    He said the two men -- Qaed Salim Sunian al-Harethi and Mohammed Hamdi al-Ahdal -- will not be surrendered to the United States, adding his country has asked Washington to hand over the Yemenis being held by the U.S. military at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
    "What were we thinking! Mohammed, let's go turn ourselves in right now!"
    "You're right, Qaed. I'll go get the car."
