Yemen is not Egypt, Syria or Libya. The world just does not care for Yemen.
I am espessially disgusting by Yemen's neighbor whose government has been providing Saleh with weapons to destroy his own people. I am also disgusted by the rest of the Arab leaders because their silence signals their acceptance. The United States is also part of the problem. They continue to focus only on the security issue in Yemen, specifically their "growing concern for AQAP presence" but clearly it's bullshit. If they were really concerned they would not be turning a blind eye on the country's escalating humanitarian and human rights situation. Any efforts by the U.S. to fight Al Qaeda will probably now be ineffective.
Why should the Yemeni people assist with the United States in counterterrorism efforts if the U.S. are not helping or respecting the Yemeni people? Glosses over their peaceful resistance and human right abuses will only backfire on the United States. The current atrocities and crimes against humanity are clear violations of the ethics and principle of justice, freedom and human rights.
After 8 months of brutal violence and mass murder who would blame the peaceful protestors if they end up resorting to extremism ? I sure as hell won't. This must be what the U.S. wants. If they were seriously concerned about the growing presence of AQAP it wouldn't be ignoring the Yemeni populaitons demands for BASIC human rights.
In short, Yemen, is not about “security” or “terrorism”. It is about a country drowning in blood. CLEAR GENOCIDE & MASS MURDER is being supported by the Arab leaders, the United States, Russia, probably even the United Nations. What exactly for? Power? money? media?
