SANA, Yemen -- Ten men, including key suspects in the bombing of the USS Cole, escaped from a Yemeni prison Friday, dealing a major blow to the investigation into the bombing blamed on the al-Qaida terrorist network.

A massive manhunt is under way for the men, including two who U.S. counterterrorism officials say played key roles in the attack: Jamal al-Badawi and Fahd Muhammad Ahmad al-Quso.

Al-Badawi allegedly bought the dinghy packed with explosives. It was rammed by suicide bombers into the anchored destroyer refueling on Oct. 12, 2000, in the south Yemeni port of Aden, killing 17 U.S. sailors.

Details of the prison break were few, and officials said the incident was being investigated. (LOL!)

2. According to Clinton-hating republicans, nothing was ever done
about the USS Cole bombing. Or the first WTC bombing. So who was that guy that Patrick Fitzgerald sent to prision for life? :eyes:

4. John O'Neill, the FBI legend, thought that the Saudis were
withholding information from the USS Cole bombing. You know, the Saudis, *'s good pals...
