Yeah, but now we've got the excuse we need to give Yemen some "shock and awe"...

No U.S. Commercial or Private Plane left Yemen to the U.S. over last 48 hours; Yemeni Official

A Yemeni official told Yemen Post that no U.S. cargo aircraft of any American company flew out of Yemen over the last 48 hours.

“Whether UPS, Fed Ex, DHL or any other U.S. cargo company left Yemen over the last 48 hours.”

Hamed Farg, Head of the Yemen Civil Aviation Authority told Yemen Post that the Yemeni government will distribute a press release in the next hour with the latest updates concerning the matter.

International media reported the suspicious package, which contained a “manipulated” toner cartridge, tested negative for explosive material, the source said, but it led to heightened inspection of arriving cargo flights in Newark, New Jersey, and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and a UPS truck in New York.

Suspicious Package to U.S. not from Yemen; Yemenia Air Cargo Director

Mohammed al-Shaibah, Air Cargo Director for Yemenia Airways said to Yemen Post, "No UPS cargo plane left Yemeni lands over the land 48 hours. These accusations are false and baseless."
He added, "No UPS or DHL cargo packages heading to Chicago through Yemen took place in the last 48 hours as well."


"All packages are checked very carefully in Yemen, and there is no evidence to prove that this package came through Yemen."
