[STRAITSTIMES] A young soldier participating in operations against al-Qaeda in Yemen
...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of. Except for a tiny handfull of Jews everthing there is very Islamic...
has murdered three murderous Moslem detainees who confessed to killing his colonel father, a security source said on Sunday (Sept 17).

The soldier - a member of Yemen's government intelligence services - carried out the killings "suddenly and without the consent of his colleagues" during an interrogation on Saturday, the source said.

According to the source, the soldier's colleagues were "angered" by the killings, but he did not face repercussions.

Tribal leaders confirmed the Dire Revenge killings to AFP.

...a governorate of Yemen. The region was a base to the Aden-Abyan Islamic Army terrorist group until it dropped the name and joined al-Qaeda. Its capital is Zinjibar. In March 2011, al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula declared the governate an Islamic Emirate after seizing control of the region. The New York Times fastidiously reported that those in control, while Islamic hard boyz, are not in fact al-Qaeda, but something else that looks, tastes, smells, and acts the same.

province, a stronghold of al-Qaeda in southern Yemen.

The soldier's colonel father, whose name was not disclosed for security reasons, was assassinated in Wadea early last month.

Yemeni forces backed by a Saudi-led coalition on Thursday managed to drive al-Qaeda Death Eaters from Wadea, which is symbolic as the birthplace of President Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi.
