Q: Are the airstrikes in Yemen working?

THE PRESIDENT: Well, when you say “working,” are they stopping the Houthis? No. Are they going to continue? Yes.

What ever happened to talking and reaching an agreement and asking for favors and scratching each other back.. like now we resort to uncivilized behavior by attacking the poorest countries.

Years of Saudi air strikes with US weapons systems ended in a victory for the Houthis. Not to mention causing one of the worst humanitarian situations of the 21st century.

WTF does the US think it's gonna do other than escalate the situation (and continue the next record breaking humanitarian crisis)?

The US is just making sure the humanitarian crisis in Yemen ISN'T the worst humanitarian situation of the 21st century.

I stand with Yemen and the Yemeni government, the only terrorists are the US and Israeli militaries and whoever aids them.

I stand with anyone doing their part to pressure the US and Israel in ending their genocide. ❤️
