I know of no one, much less the ridiculous humanitarianism-as-fashion hipsters, who know of these facts, or who could even locate Yemen on a map. Regardless, their government is arming Yemen’s tormentors with the latest weapons of war, including the barbaric white phosphorus, and unleashing them in indiscriminate fashion upon a helpless civilian population. The survivors will eventually crawl out of the rubble, and in five years, ten years, or twenty years, unsuspecting First World civilians will die at the hands of strangers screaming something about “Yemen”. Westerners will look on, dumbfounded, and blame the resulting terrorism on their hatred of our “freedom”, rather than an ineluctable consequence of their governments’ previous war crimes.
