Yemen’s youthful democratic movement needs the support of outside powers – otherwise the stalemate, the and worsening economic and humanitarian crisis, will continue.

State Department Puts Israel Over U.S. Citizens Again

Instead of calling on the Israeli government to let a flotilla of unarmed civilians sail to Gaza, the United States government is pressuring its own citizens to refrain from legal acts.

Kill Saleh

A rebellious dictator can be handled (some shrapnel and an airplane ride to Riyadh will do). But an entire country?

Thank You Rae Abileah!

By Mahmoud El-Yousseph June 2, 2011 How funny it is that people will support our Constitution and the right to free speech only when it applies to them, but when it comes to Israel, the rules never applied.
