The article is so light on history it’s pathetic.
The divisions and instability in Yemen has been going on a long time, it’s not new.
Part of the division has been ethnic - different tribes, and part of it political, but underneath both has always existed the sectarian element - differences between Sunni and Shia.
Iran’s recent involvement is a big negative, for sure, but its ability to get involved (to have local Yemen groups seeking their support) is a matter of exploiting grievances of the Shia minority against the Sunni majority - some of the grievances legitimate.
The difference in this era is that in the past Middle East Arab Shia minorities, or politically oppressed Shia majorities, like in the Gulf States and like once was the case in Iraq, did not have a major regional champion, like the mullahs in Iran are behaving as. Of course, in time, many Shia will be sorry they take on the mullah’s in Iran for allies, for the mullahs have no main agenda other than their theocratic dictatorship. “Helping” other Shia muslims is really only about helping themselves, in terms of power.
Under what authority did the corrupt Clinton erase the emails of Abedin, Mills et al. This is pure criminality and Clinton must be told that she will be prosecuted, if not by this DOJ, by the next. The RICO case by Klayman is just the beginning. Dems must be warned not to nominate the walking dead.
Here's the link to the longer version.
Mr. Wuli
Apologies for my last post to you. I was confusing another thread I started.
