Monday Papers (or News without details)

News Yemen, and a number of other outlets, are reporting that the Ministry of Information has a new guide book for the country’s most wanted.

Al-Ghad attempts to fit all the Islamist news of the past week into one short article, which of course means that there is little to no details on anything – from the fighting in Ja’ar to al-‘Awfi’s “confessions.” (I finally have a transcript of what he said, and not just press articles about what he said, so hopefully I will have a chance to read it today.) Al-Ghad continues its news without details trend writing about an al-Qaeda suspected that was arrested on his way to Hudaydah.
