This is not the first time that al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula’s number two has been reported killed in an air strike in Yemen.
If confirmed, it will be a serious, though not fatal, blow to the group.
Yemeni government sources say the Saudi national, Said al-Shihri, was killed along with several other militants in an air strike on his vehicle in a remote valley in the eastern region of Hadramawt.
There are conflicting reports as to whether this was conducted by the Yemeni air force or, far more likely, by missiles fired from an unmanned Reaper drone operated by the US Central Intelligence Agency…

…People in uniform, even the JCS chair, take orders. There are just a couple links, albeit weak, in the chain of command above JCS chair.
Keep in mind that the party which ordered Dempsey to place that call
- doesn’t know what our Navy looks like
- can’t tell an admiral from a general, and
- could be suppressing the military vote.
So, treating the JCS chair like a flunky continues to communicate to the Middle Eastern audience that the U.S. military is something of a joke, and need not be a concern.
