It started less than two weeks ago. First there was the usual denial. Then, the reluctant admission. Finally, we have the start of the propaganda to get our next arena for our "perpetual war on terror for perpetual peace" going:

LIEBERMAN: YEMEN WILL BE 'TOMORROW'S WAR' IF PRE-EMPTIVE [sic] ACTION NOT TAKEN

Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.) Sunday said that Yemen could be the ground of America's next overseas war if Washington does not take preemptive action to root out al-Qaeda interests there. Lieberman, who helms the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, said on "Fox News Sunday" that the U.S. will have to take an active approach in Yemen after multiple recent terrorist attacks on the U.S. were linked back to the Middle Eastern nation. The Connecticut senator said that an administration official told him that "Iraq was yesterday's war, Afghanistan is today's war. If we don't act preemptively, Yemen will be tomorrow's war."

Sen. Arlen Specter (D-Pa.), also on Fox, agreed that preemptive strikes should be "one [option] we ought to be considering" but added that "it's a big, complex subject." [No wonder Specter switched parties (not that there's any difference)—he wants to be on the side of our current warmongering criminals.]

Perpetual war for perpetual peace.
