Yemen leader expected to accept demands of Houthis who defeat his guards
(Reuters) - Yemen’s President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi was expected to yield to demands on Wednesday for constitutional change and power sharing with Houthi rebels who took up positions outside his home after defeating his guards in two days of battle.
Gulf neighbors denounced what they described as a coup in Yemen, although both the Houthis and some of the president’s allies denied that he had been overthrown.
A source close to the president said Hadi had met an official of the Shi’ite Muslim rebel group and would soon issue decrees resolving all differences. The source denied Hadi was under house arrest inside the residence, surrounded since early morning by Houthi fighters.
“Within hours, decisions will be made heeding the Houthi demands,” said the source, speaking to Reuters on condition of anonymity before the official announcement. “We expect an announcement to resolve all problems within hours.”
Think of the final scene from Beneath the Planet of the Apes, when the apes attack the mutant cathedral that has the doomsday bomb in it.
Hmmm. Did I miss the part of the SOTU address where The Won covered this?
Yeah, that would be a goal no doubt.
All the same to 0!
Interesting idea, use the President as you puppet. Hmmm. Perhaps he will just starting reading lines on a teleprompter from now on.
Come on now, all leftist know if you deny or ignore your failures, they never actually occurred.
