US embassy in Yemen and the confiscation of US passports from Amerian citizens of Yemeni origin

From a reader:  "The US Embassy in Sanaa for at least the past year has been confiscating US passports from American citizens of Yemeni origin without proper notice or appeal rights. Can you please share these two links on your blog with general legal information, as well as info about recent time-sensitive notices providing 60 days to request an appeal?"
