Iran and Al-Qaeda Source of Growing Terror in Yemen

Al-Qaeda claimed responsibility for the attempted airliner bombing as retaliation for an operation against the group’s Yemen-based cell.[2]

At least two former terror suspects released from Guantanamo Bay in November 2007 are in Yemen commanding al-Qaeda operations.[4]

Arab and Egyptian sources reveled that intelligence agencies in the region report a secret meeting in Yemen took place in November between high-level officials from Iran’s Revolutionary Guards Corps, Hezbollah and the Yemen-based Shia al-Houthi militants to plan and coordinate a new strategy for escalating the Saudi-Yemen border conflict.[9]
