Yemen is 65% Sunni, yet there’s a Shiite coup?

Anybody ever wonder who hussein was droning in Yemen?

Exactly..we need to encourage as much Muzzie-on-Muzzie killing as possible.

Agreed.
When Americans were in favor of ousting Assad in Syria I had the same take there.
Our enemies were at each others throats over Syria.
Saudi Arabia, al Qaeda,the Sunnis on one side, and Iran, the Shiites, and Infidel Russia on the other.

But we foolishly got ourselves involved.

We will probably make the same mistake in Yemen to help out Sunni Saudi Arabia who has a Shiite problem like Yemen. - Tom

Only plus is shia and sunni killing each other. Doubt there are many Christians or Jews there.

There should not be many Jews in Yemen because about 20 or so years ago they fled to Israel.

The Christians should be a very small group.
Since the Sunnis and Shias make up about 99% of the population, they do agree on one thing- killing Infidels is OK.
Any Christian who is still in Yemen is in great danger now. - Tom

There's nothing like tribal warfare all over.
