U.S. in Secret Joint Operations With Yemeni Troops

U.S. military teams and intelligence agencies are deeply involved in secret joint operations with Yemeni troops, Fox News confirmed.

Yemeni troops in the past six weeks have killed scores of people -- among them six of 15 top leaders of a regional Al Qaeda affiliate -- according to senior administration officials.

The operations, which began six weeks ago, were approved by President Obama and involve several dozen troops from the U.S. military's clandestine Joint Special Operations Command.

A Yemeni official told the Associated Press Tuesday that the U.S. military and intelligence agencies have been participating in joint operations for some time with Yemeni troops, and the two countries are currently in discussions to build a new aviation unit to help bolster Yemen's counterterrorism forces.

So we do have troops in Yemen participating in operations afterall, be they Special Forces or CIA Mercenaries... Obama, you deserve that nobel peace prize for bringing war, i mean peace, to yemen...
