April 2015 Yemen
Saudi
Arabia’s bombing of Yemini insurgents has caused horrific civilian casualties.
They
have embarked on a military adventure that has created greater instability and
violence that has weakened Yemen beyond repair and may very well boomerang upon
the kingdom itself. Oblivious of the unfolding mayhem, billionaire Saudi Prince
Al-Waleed bin Talal, offered to donate 100 Bentley cars to the fighter pilots
participating in the campaign. Claims that their air campaign achieved their
goals rings hollow given that the insurgent Houthis advance has not been slowed
down. The Yemeni leader, Ali Abdullah Saleh, has fled to the safety of the
Saudi Kingdom abandoning his people. Once again we have aligned ourselves with
one of the greatest purveyors of terrorism in the world, Saudi Arabia, which
has sent rivers of money to the demonic ISIS fighters. Saleh is a thoroughly corrupt dictator,
universally despised by his people. The Houthis sent overtures that were
prepared for a cease fire and power sharing prior to the Saudi bombing.
Reigning down terror from the safety of the skies will only exacerbate the
suffering of the Yemini people and prolong the conflict.
