  1. The US involvement in Yemen began under Obama. Where were the protests then? Where was the media then? Where was the anti-war movement when Obama took the US from two wars to seven wars? Why did they fall conspicuously silent during Obama’s entire two terms? It wouldn’t have anything to do with the anti-war movement being predominantly from the Left would it? They wouldn’t have given ‘their guy’, Noble ‘Peace’ Prize winner Obama a free pass would they? Now Trump is in office suddenly people are taking notice of Yemen. Sorry but your hypocritical partisanship has just been revealed in all its ‘gory’. – SHAME!!! Oh yeah and just how many $Millions did the Clinton Foundation receive from the Saudis while all of this was going on?

  2. Some very eloquent and intelligent people here. A great shame there aren’t more young people here protesting but my utmost respect to these beautiful people. Go support them America! Thank you for covering this and doing it well.

  3. Fasting is about the worst thing one can to his/her body. The conscientious people of the world should spend their energy and life force by informing others instead of weakening/damaging their bodies.

  4. Speak out loud!

    Excellent. Stop the current co-opting of the longest stretch of conflict in history b4 banking broke out of the dark ages into the east, those who hold fast to the rubber band tips ( b4 they break, right?) the deep spread across the hemispheres, all, by these evil time bandits, continuing. Count on it. Vega$ for Venu$, literally, Brazil, by Terey Gilliam.

    See Florida Maquis for this oversized continental divide, speaking of narcotics and confidence, bibi-in-brazil, etc.

  5. I fast a day and eat a day since Syria's famine ..so I thank them,specially doing it in the cold..My country's politicians oppose it & so the ppl ..but I try to remind donating & do every [even if] little I can.

  6. These people are doing a great thing. Unfortunately, too many people in America are apathetic, even towards American kids who are suffering. No matter how long the protestors stay on the hunger strike, it won't be enough to make the majority of Americans care about what's happening. "It doesn't concern me. It's their country, let their government handle it." The American oligarchs are making too much profit from the wars. Until they're stopped, I don't think anything will change.
