Yemen has the worlds worst humanitarian crisis right now.

Here’s a good organization to donate to: https://www.savethechildren.org/us/what-we-do/where-we-work/greater-middle-east-eurasia/yemen

(not sure why the comparison was made to “Jewish people in the holocaust”????)

this humanitarian crisis is not the result of an earthquake or tsunami or some kind of uncontrollable phenomenon undefeatable by man – it is the direct result of the blockade of Yemen poised by Saudi Arabia and the United States, the entirety of the Arab league and allies like France, Canada and the United Kingdom. 

Not only must Yemenis face famine, but also cholera outbreaks which cause thousands of new cases everyday. Saudi Arabia has been known to purposely target water, sanitation and health facilities which is worsening the outbreak and resulting in even more deaths (x)

Saudi Arabia is fighting to reassert the presidency of their favoured presidential candidate by starving & assaulting Yemen and is using weapons financed by its western allies and Gulf arab states to do so. (x) (x) (x)

The genocide of Yemeni people is occurring for the sake of assuring power and monopoly over the region for Saudi Arabia and the United States. 

The USA and Saudi Arabia said nothing when Al-Qaeda took hold of Yemen, they said nothing when ISIS took hold of Yemen, they said nothing when monthly terrorist attacks would claim yemeni lives – but when the pro-U.S. and pro-Saudi Arabia president was removed from power, they carried out the worst assault in modern history of any nation and are starving millions to regain control of Yemen. 

If that’s not enough, Saudi Arabia & the U.S. have also worked alongside Al-Qaeda, the same terror organization that’s been claiming Yemeni lives for decades, to regain control of the region and starve Yemenis into submission 

If you need some other ways to describe millions of people dying, here are some;

18.4 million is more than the entire population of the Netherlands. 

18.4 million people dying between the 28th of May when this warning was released and the end of 2018 would be almost 85.000 per day. 

That’s close to one person every second.

If you want a visual image. 85.000 people is the Lincoln Memorial Stadium:

Every person in this picture. EVERY DAY.
