The Foreign Office has confirmed the British embassy in Sana'a will be closed for two days from Sunday as a "precautionary measure" and issued advice warning against all travel to the country.

The FCO also stated that Britons remaining in Yemen are unlikely to be evacuated if the unrest gets worse.

I wonder if the chatter is intentional, and the threats are elsewhere, that were missed. This administration has a tendency to be wrong, or on the opposite side of most issues.

I guess that means there's no longer any salmon fishing in the Yemen.

We've been wondering the same thing.  They're focusing on Yemen...I hope they don't hit somewhere else.

It might also be nothing but a test to see what kind of responses the US and other nations have to a perceived "threat."

I suspect that when Al-Qaeda strikes again, it will be without any credible warnings.
