Israel Joins Obama’s War on Yemen<\/b><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
by Stephen Lendman<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Obama terror-bombed Yemen throughout his tenure.He murdered hundreds of noncombatant men, women and children in cold blood.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
He’s at it again. He’s waging proxy war against Houthi rebels.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
He’s using rogue state regional allies to do his dirty work.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
They ousted illegitimately US-installed puppet Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Israel quietly joined Obama’s dirty war. On March 22, Houthi leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi accused Washington and Israel of using Takfiri extremists to stage terrorist attacks on Yemeni civilians.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Mosques were targeted. Scores were killed, hundreds injured. Al-Houthi urged Yemenis to unite against elements aiming to destabilize the country.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“Everyone is a target,” he said. He didn’t know at the time Washington intended using proxy forces to terror-bomb Yemen into submission.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
America’s goal is longstanding. Eliminate all independent governments. Replace them with US-controlled puppets.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Hadi was a convenient stooge. Obama wants him back in power serving US interests.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
At the same time, denying Iran a regional ally. Aiming to isolate Tehran regionally by eliminating its key allies – mainly Syria and Hezbollah.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Then replacing Iran’s independent government with one Washington controls.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
America allies with the region’s worst despots to further its objectives.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It’s in bed with Israel’s hegemonic ambitions. Both countries partner in each other’s high crimes.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
They threaten world peace. They  terror-bomb adversaries.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Washington planned war on Yemen months earlier. It’s controlling and directing ongoing Saudi-led aggression against a nation posing it no threat.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Israeli warplanes are involved. Fars News said they’re participating in airstrikes.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It quoted Yemen’s Al-Haq Political party Secretary-General Hassan Zayd saying:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
On direct orders from Netanyahu, “for the first time\u2026Zionists are conducting a joint (military) operation in coalition with Arabs.”<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Yemen’s al-Massira television said aggressor warplanes deliberately targeted civilian homes and a market where people were shopping.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Dozens were killed, scores more injured. Bombing continues.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Houthi forces keep advancing. Reports indicate heavy clashes near Aden.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Senior Iranian parliamentarians urged Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) member nations to condemn Saudi terror-bombing.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Iranian MP Zohreh Tabibzadeh spoke for others saying “(w)e expect the NAM countries to condemn this aggression.”<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Yemenis intend defending their country, she stressed. They deserve universal support against US-planned, sponsored and directed terror-bombing.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
On Saturday, Reuters said Houthi fighters continued making gains – despite Saudi-led air attacks.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Yemen is the latest example of Washington’s war on humanity.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It’s systematically ravaging and destroying one country at a time.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Post-9\/11 alone, its aim for unchallenged global dominance took millions of lives.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Gideon Polya estimates Bush\/Obama genocidal war on Iraq alone (since 2003) killed 2.7 million people – from violence and “violently-imposed deprivation.”<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Since 1914, Western wars on Iraq killed nine million, Polya estimates.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
What Britain began a century ago, it now partners in what Washington continues – wars without end against Arab populations being systematically exterminated.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Western media scoundrels ignore an ongoing Arab Holocaust far greater than what Hitler did to Jews.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Try finding a single Western report explaining it. None on one of history’s greatest crimes.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Arab lives don’t matter. Western white supremacists consider them fair game for mass slaughter and exploitation.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Washington’s Afghan, Iraqi, Libyan and Syrian wars continue. Yemen is Obama’s latest aggression.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It follows his installing Nazis to run Ukraine – to wage dirty war without mercy on Donbass residents wanting to live free from the scourge of fascism.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
What happens longer term  remains to be seen. Washington’s war on humanity threatens world peace.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Madness defines US policy. Lunatics in charge won’t quit until they turn all countries to rubble.<\/div>\n
