A high-ranking Yemeni security official has told
McClatchy that the Obama administration’s recently announced terror
threat which supposedly targeted US embassies had “no basis in fact” and
was manufactured merely to dampen opposition to drone strikes.
After initially warning of a terror plot “thought to
have been one of the most serious against American and other Western
interests since the September 11 attacks,” the US closed 20 embassies
and consulates earlier this month, 18 of which reopened yesterday.
The announcement of the threat occurred as it was simultaneously acknowledged that
the attack on the US consulate in Benghazi last year was linked to a
clandestine CIA arms smuggling operation based in the Libyan city that
was being used to transport arms to rebels in Syria, many of whom are
allied with Al-Qaeda militants.
