Yemen's Real Million Man March |

Watch Carefully U.S.
On the brink of an economic meltdown, the poorest country in the Middle East, Yemen, produced a mind boggling crowd of protestors. From "dune to shining dune", the human mass called for the ouster of president Ali Abdullah Saleh.
Of course Saleh, like any other person in power, does not want to relinquish said power and retorted "We will confront a challenge with a challenge." With the deaths of the latest "saboteurs" as Saleh calls them - can you say "enemy non-combatants" (after all that's what the U.S. calls them) the death toll for the protestors has exceeded 170.
Sharky&Sharky have never considered Yemen stable. In fact the Fukushima reactor complex, today, is probably more stable than Yemen has ever been. But with a large al Qaeda presence that have "sworn vengeance" for the killing of Bin Laden at the hands of U.S. Navy Seals, international alarm has been raised fearing his ouster could prove troublesome for the hand wringers in the west and especially in the U.S. - you know those people who will not profile but will treat their own citizens like shit.
How long will it be before we start seeing pictures like this in Washington, D.C.?
Hopefully - the sooner the better!
