Yemen, the joke is on you ...

By Marwan Bishara, Al Jazeera's senior political analyst

Read the above article and consider contacting your MP and/ or your Members of European Parliament.

Explain that you are concerned that by offering the Yemen regime military training, arms, naval patrolling, intelligence sharing and offensive operations, the governments of Britain and America will be helping to sustain and prolong a autocratic government, and that military help will aggravate the state of Yemen into a possibly civil war where there are secessionist movements in the north and south of Yemen. Adding to this possibly instability is the fact that there are a estimated 60 million guns in Yemen.
After Afghanistan, Iraq, and Somalia, does the UK want to fight another war.
