I heard that fifty protesters were shot dead in the street yesterday in Yemen. I haven’t heard any calls to stop the “genocide” there though.
That’s because he’s more easily toppled. Notice that none of the Shariah-run dictatorships are being touched by foreign intervention? Iran? No. Syria? No.
Last Friday. The government snipers were on the rooftops and shot into the crowds as the marchers passed beneath.
“Thousands of protesters in Yemen mounted a massive protest in the capital of Sanaa on Friday, but ran into a trap set by government forces, which fired on them from rooftops and killed 46, wounding some two hundred. It is alleged that the troops set tires on fire and created walls of flame with gasoline, trapping the crowds and allowing snipers to fire into them as though they were fish in a barrel.”

Yemen is a tough case. Al Qaida is embedded in the north; Yemen is supposedly the place where bin Laden is hiding after escaping from Afghanistan in 2001. We have been using air bases there for an expanded campaign against AQAP. Because of that, we cannot actively take a part in a rebellion against the current leadership.
