The US embassy in Yemen was attacked by an Islamic terrorist group today, and 10 people were killed—six Yemeni soldiers and four civilians. This AFP article says “16 killed,” because they’re including the six terrorists.

A shadowy group calling itself Islamic Jihad in Yemen claimed responsibility and threatened similar strikes against the British, Saudi and United Arab Emirates missions in the Yemeni capital.

That’s pretty shadowy, all right. You think maybe the words “Islamic Jihad” are some kind of clue?

 Frank says:

The essence of Christianity is told us in the Garden of Eden history. The fruit that was forbidden was on the tree of knowledge. The subtext is, All the suffering you have is because you wanted to find out what was going on. You could be in the Garden of Eden if you had just kept your mouth shut and hadn't asked any questions. -- Playboy Interview, April 1993
