Oh so we just weren't suppose to know. That clears it up.

Citing "informed sources," Newsweek said Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh gave the United States permission for such attacks but was angered when the hit was leaked to the press.
CIA officials were also angry and concerned that the leak, which they traced to the Pentagon, would discourage other countries from allowing such strikes within their borders, Newsweek reported.

I think whom ever leaked this information should be arrested. After all this was two days before the election. Who the heck would do that anyway?
