Shall We Invoke the Purity Test?

We killed some jihadis in Pakistan:


Two U.S. missile strikes pummeled targets inside the main sanctuary used by al-Qaida and the Taliban along Pakistan's border with Afghanistan, killing 17 people Thursday, local intelligence officials said.
The Yemenis say they did some jihadi killing, too:

Yemeni security forces struck suspected al-Qaida hide-outs and training sites Thursday, and officials said at least 34 militants were killed, in an unusually heavy assault as Washington presses the deeply unstable country for tougher action against the terror network.
I guess we should ask Yemen to stop that since they may have different motives than we do for killing jihadis. I mean, heaven's to Betsy, the Yemeni government might ask a favor in return!
