Terrorism in Yemen

I have conflicting opinions about Obama's stance on sending our troops to Yemen to help fght terrorism. I tend to agree with Obama when he says we need to rely on our allies to help us with this fight in Yemen.

It is very upsetting to me that we spend billions and sacrifice the lives of many American soldiers while China, Russia, France, Germany, Canada etc sit by and watch us do so and then criticize us for it. Perhaps if we didn't give so much money to foreign nations and the whole damn continent of Africa we might be better off.

Our true allies are right along with us in Iraq and Afghanistan but in admittedly smaller numbers, but they are there at least. I just don't think we can not commit some troops to Yemen to make sure rooting out the potential terrorist camps and operations are done properly.

If we don't actually touch it, it probably doesn't exist and if we want it done right, we probably should do it ourselves...
