Why U.S. Troops May Fight Alongside al-Qaeda in Yemen
Trump is expanding the flawed policy of Obama
The
Trump administration has indicated that it will increase its support
for Saudi Arabia’s war against Yemen’s Houthi rebels. The Saudi-led war,
which began two years ago, has achieved little beyond killing
thousands, destroying much of Yemen’s infrastructure, empowering
al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), and pushing millions to the
brink of famine. The war is being waged with few ethical constraints:
Saudi Arabia has targeted funerals, schools, factories, and farms. Most recently, a boat full of refugees fleeing Yemen was attacked by an Apache helicopter. That attack killed 42 people.https://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/why-u-s-troops-may-fight-alongside-al-qaeda-in-yemen/
