The fight between al-Qaeda and the Yemeni government continues this morning. At least 38 people were killed today when a suicide bomber attacked rehearsal for a military parade. There is also word that a member of the U.S. military was wounded today in what is being called an attack by Al Qaeda. Joining us from Sanaa is Reuters Correspondent Tom Finn. In the second hour, we’re joined by Gregory Johnsen, Yemen expert at Princeton.
