"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest for freedom, go home and leave us in peace. We seek not your council nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Another senior al Qaeda member is killed. In Yemen this time.

Follow up: Apparently they were on the way to assassinate the American Ambassador. And the explosion was due to American missiles.

Once the al-Qaeda assassination team was spotted headed for their attack on the American ambassador, the American CIA commander in Yemen gave the order to strike. The four "Hornet" aircraft flew in from the sea at high speed, and as they approached the target two of them flew low. Each of these two jets launched one television-guided missile. At least one of the two missiles hit the pickup truck in the cab, while the second missile apparently missed entirely. The attacking aircraft turned around and made a slow flight over the burning wreckage before joining their two fellows and heading off to sea.
