    How is this Bush's fault? I think it the fault of the person that did the organizing and carried out the killing.

    I don't see this as a failure by Bush personally, I just hope that others who normally give Bush a pass at 'no terrorist attacks' since 9/11 realize this is indeed an attack on US interests, I hope they also realize attacks under Clinton's watch also can not be 100% his fault if you do not blame Bush at all for this.

    Of course there is some blame to go on the administration because it was his/her watch, that is far from claiming them a failure for it, or putting all blame on them.

    Islamic Jihad claimed responsibility.

    All of those who died were Yemenis (only 1 Indian), which make their efforts useless.

    Peace,

    They got news, no matter if they killed a US individual or not they still got news, still made a point, still conducted an attack.

    1. Terrorist killing innocents
    2. US(by US I mean administration, not general population) killing innocents and blaming terrorists so it will give them excuse to keep the war going, getting fundings from congress etc etc.

    Both can be possible.

    The State Department has confirmed that a young American woman and her Yemeni husband were killed in a terrorist attack at the U.S. Embassy in Yemen.


    A spokesman says officials have verified reports from the family of Susan Elbaneh that the 18-year-old from Lackawanna, N.Y., was among the victims of Wednesday's attack. Elbaneh, who was recently wed in Yemen in an arranged marriage, was outside the embassy with her husband apparently waiting to complete paperwork, according to her brother.

    The attack killed 16 people, including six militants, and was the deadliest direct assault on a U.S. Embassy in a decade. The attackers failed to breach the compound's walls, and none of those killed or wounded were U.S. diplomats or embassy employees.
