Why the United States will never leave Yemen

Posted on by

“At least 10,000 people have been killed in the conflict, and seven million are in dire need of food assistance.  The US began supporting the Saudi-led coalition through a decision by then-US President Barack Obama, who cited the Authorisation for Use of Military Force (AUMF) to justify US involvement.  Since taking office, President Donald Trump has done the same.”

Can Congress stop Trump from supporting Saudi Arabia’s war in Yemen?

Posted on by

“In 2015, President Barack Obama supported Saudi Arabia’s war effort in Yemen, and President Donald Trump has continued the mission. The fight for control of Yemen shows no sign of stopping. The war has killed thousands of civilians, caused widespread food shortages and triggered a cholera epidemic. Yemenis have been plunged into the world’s worst humanitarian crisis. In its drive to destroy rebel targets, the Saudi-led coalition has struck hospitals, schools and marketplaces in scores of well-documented attacks.”

Saudis withdraw from US-backed starvation blockade in Yemen

Posted on by

“As children in war-torn Yemen continue to face severe malnutrition and a deadly cholera outbreak, Saudi Arabia has agreed to reopen air and sea ports following a week-long blockade. The Saudi-led coalition, which is backed by the US, launched an aerial campaign against Shiite Houthi rebels in March 2015, and later began a ground operation. The coalition is allied to Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi, who fled to Saudi Arabia when the Houthis took power in Yemen. According to the latest UN figures, the conflict has so far led to the deaths of over 5,000 civilians. More than 8,500 people have been injured in the ongoing fighting.”

Duty, Honor, Atrocity: George W. Bush Receives West Point Character Award

Posted on by

“In George W. Bush’s home state of Texas, if you are an ordinary citizen found guilty of capital murder, the mandatory sentence is either life in prison or the death penalty. If, however, you are a former president of the United States responsible for initiating two illegal wars of aggression, which killed 7,000 U.S. servicemen and at least 210,000 civilians, displaced more than 10 million people from their homes, condoned torture, initiated a global drone assassination campaign, and imprisoned people for years without substantive evidence or trial in Guantanamo Bay, the punishment evidently is to be given the Thayer Award at West Point.”

US Airstrikes Kill 43 Civilians In Apartments

Posted on by

“After destroying a hospital yesterday in the same part of Raqqa, the US has not publicly commented on today’s strike.  Such incidents rarely make it into the official Pentagon list of civilian casualties in the two nations, which is usually around 10% of the actual death toll as calculated by private NGOs.”

UN Official Condemns Torture As Trump Plans UN Funding Cuts

Posted on by

The United Nations special rapporteur on torture said on Monday that U.S. President Donald Trump needs to acknowledge that the extreme interrogation technique known as waterboarding is torture and therefore absolutely prohibited.

Meanwhile, draft executive orders have been circulated by the White House that would renegotiate the U.S. relationship with the U.N., including enacting “at least a 40 percent overall decrease” in remaining United States funding toward international organizations.

The Trump administration is a strong supporter of resuming methods of torture such as waterboarding that were terminated by the preceding Obama administration and widely considered to have been war crimes.
