 Congress Should Do Its Job, and Get Us Out of Yemen’s Civil War


    By Willis L. Krumholz

American support for the Saudi-led coalition is getting us nowhere good.

In mid-August, news broke of the existence of a confidential United Nations report that accused the Saudi-led air coalition intervening in Yemen’s civil war of killing hundreds of children. In the last year alone, the report said, Saudi-led forces killed or injured 683 Yemeni children. And overall, more than half of all Yemeni civilian casualties since the war began have resulted from attacks carried out by Saudi aircraft, according to an earlier report from Amnesty International.

That UN report was heavily influenced by Iran. The Shia side is just as bad. All of 'em are barbarians. I'd say let the Saudis get a couple of nukes and let them and the Persians nuke each other until they glow......
