We may be seeing just the beginning of a new wave of Middle East terrorist activity. What is being described as a suicide bombing against the U.S.S. Cole in Yemen has killed 17 American naval sailors and injured dozens of others.

And Wallace says successful attacks will embolden other zealots to attack.
