I linked to the Yemen Post a couple days ago concerning the deaths of Ali Abdullah Saif Al-Aghabri and Maraim Mohammad Al-Zahri in Yemen. Both were described as US doctors who specialized in cosmetic surgery. One could deduce from that description that they addressed deformities presumably in children. Although, that was not spelled out in the article.
What I find unconscionable is that the US Media has not filed one story in reference to these two murders. Why?
Is it because:
1. It never happened?
2. The victims were of some profession other than provided that requires a media blackout?
3. Were they mis-identified as Americans?
4. Or, would the reporting of murdered US doctors in a foreign Muslim country reflect negatively on President Obama's foreign policy abilities?
These murders, allegedly, took place three+ days ago. Where is the US media?

US Doctors Murdered in Yemen
A US couple of Yemeni origin were found killed Tuesday in Khour Maksar of the port city of Aden.
Almasdar Online said that the couple were killed on Monday night insider their apartment pointing out that the circumstances of the event are still uncertain.
Local sources spelt out tha the two persons, Ali Abdullah Saif Al-Aghabri and Maraim Mohammad Al-Zahri, worked as doctors in the field of cosmetic operations in Aden.
I'm sure it was just a random incident not involving any religious overtones or anything. Plus, I'm sure the White House can find a youtube to explain everything to everyone's satisfaction once the US media actually reports on this tragic event.The further cited that their assets existed inside the apartment were not stolen.

Yemen: Armpit of the World
SANAA, Sept. 13 (Xinhua) -- Yemeni President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi apologized to U.S. President Barack Obama on Thursday for the attack on the U.S. Embassy in Yemen's capital Sanaa, as the death toll of the conflict rose to three.That's nice. On the surface, it appears, surprisingly, that the President of Yemen is sincere in his contrite apology for the attack on the US Embassy in Yemen. Of course, you have to take it with a grain of salt, since Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi has relatives operational in Al-Qaeda. Drone strikes by the US killed one of them back in February.
One of the killed leaders, Fathi Ma’wala, is claimed to be a relative of vice president Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi.
Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi grew up in the Abyan Region, which is a hotbed for such jihadist nonsense. Ronald Reagan used to say, "trust but verify." I think we're past that point concerning political leaders, and heads of state in Middle Eastern countries. The new motto ought to be, "You're on you own. Enjoy, and don't bother us."
The attack in Yemen came as part of the widespread anger across the Muslim world over an U.S. movie insulting Islam's Prophet Mohammed.
Well, that's what the Obama Administration would like you to believe. But, it isn't backed up by the facts.
The protest was planned by Salafists well before news circulated of an objectionable video ridiculing Islam’s prophet, Mohammed, said Eric Trager, an expert at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy.
The protest outside the U.S. Embassy in Cairo was announced Aug. 30 by Jamaa Islamiya, a State Department-designated terrorist group, to protest the ongoing imprisonment of its spiritual leader, Sheikh Omar abdel Rahman. He is serving a life sentence in the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center.Well, I suppose our president can't expect to be on the money all of the time, especially when he keeps blowing off his intelligence briefings.
