American Foreign policy vis a vis Yemen


Obama’s support for Saudi Arabia to bomb Yemen, will not quell the dissidents, indeed, it will do the opposite. Saudi Monarchs should have played safe, and played the role of the Guardians of their neighbors rather than taking “either with us or against us approaches”. 

Obama need to quit supporting Saudi aggression, it is not good for them and us in the long haul. 

Saudi Monarchs have begun the process of digging their own graves… give it a few more years. If the US does not play it right and sides with the monarchs against the average men and women, they will have a rebellion on their hand, the likes of Iran in 1979.


Obama followed a sane foreign policy; he understood that the lasting relationships exist between people and people, and not between individuals or un-representative governments. He demonstrated that superbly by calling Mubarak to step down and siding with the people of Egypt. He is doing fine on Iran policy, and has bungled up on policy with Israel and Saudi Arabia.

Unfortunately, the Republican Party has given refuge to all the damned war-mongers, who are craving to have actions – bombing, killing, subduing and oppressing others. God has simply taken out the “peace gene” from them.    I would like to hear “peace” “reconciliation” and “cohesive societies” come out of the mouths of Republicans and change their perceptions.  I know the majority of Republicans are peace makers, but their silence is taken as support by the war mongers among them. It is time for the Republicans to speak up.

 
Thank you
