The Senate’s vote, invoking the War Powers Act and withdrawing U.S. support for the war in Yemen, could still be vetoed by Trump, but it can provide a way forward for ending this horrific war, say Shireen Al-Adeimi and Hassan El-Tayyab

NO MORE WAR!!! Support Yemen in restoring infrastructure and saving war-torn human beings.
Very good interview, but I've been wondering why for quite a long time now that Israel vs Palestine has been increasingly disappeared for topic. Justice for Yemen, but also for Palestine, and we could add some other countries as well. I definitely don't think we should ignore any of these injustices.. But, I hope well all of these peoples can achieve justice, asap; no doubt about that.
WE DO NOT LIVE IN A DEMOCRACY. This vote just as all the other votes are a pantomime of false power. There is a book, GIANTS: The Global Power Elite which demonstrates and "exposes" (it is there in plain sight) The huge mass of core Western Imperial capital – now 50+ trillion dollars in size. The book shows just how this block of capital issues its instructions to government, the private global financial system is owned by this core capital – it has far more power than the US has.
Thomas Pekitty showed how this block of core capital has been in control for 500 years – the core capital of the Western world has grown at a rate in excess of the general economy EVERY SINGLE YEAR before during and after French Revolution. That revolution changed notjhing the same people were still making sure that they profited no matter what.
It is pathetic to think that Sanders or a vote in congress is going to stop the perpetual slaughter which the US has conducted 24 hours a day 7 days a week for 75 years.
It is simply a misreading of history and the current state of affairs to believe in any way Liberal Democracy is capable of confronting that 50+ trillion dollars and the power it has over society and culture.
The US government may well disappear but nothing in the last 75 years (and much longer) has ever been able to keep the oligarchy from exercising ultimate power.
Western government ans society has never moved past Feudalism, the constitution, by claiming we have "rights" granted by "the creator" god, and it is the responsibility of the state to protect our god given "rights" from an evil which is everywhere seeking to take from us that which god gave us. This is not democracy this is Feudal authoritarianism.
For 75 years the US has slaughtered people all over the globe every single day, do you really believe that 500 years of successful rule of the West to suite their purposes only that the oligarchy is going to stop because of a vote? For crying out loud, the French Revolution changed nothing, the US revolution changed nothing. No Western government of any kind has has ever stopped the oligarchy from profits which have increased every single year.
The idea that elections or the corrupt activities of government will change anything is wishful thinking at best and a delusion at worst.
It's just this simple – the Western world is ruled by its owners, everything else is to obscure that reality.
This is a big lie, when they say It is Just Saudi war. This is war of Zionarabs and the zionist of USA/Israel.
They want to keep startegic important
Gate of oil under their controll.
Actually all These gates should get paid. Spucially Yemen, which IS poor should get Money for passing the ships
They have to pay Yemenis for that.
So who's going to sanction us for all the horrible shit we're doing in Yemen?? Or maybe Russia can do a REAL regime change here in the US
If Trump vetoes this bill, OVERRIDE his veto.
Just as correctly was said without US support, Saudi would not be as to last one week against Iran, that same army who has not been able to defeat Yemens Houthi after almost 4 years despite all the help from the West, it is simple to conclude who is doing the fighting, or at least guiding it.
Thanks to Bernie Sanders! He never stops but the DNC tries to stop him again. Noting will change until people take action but I have little hope , we have a nation of illiterate whiners – very sad.
America IS the real terrorist.
It’s using just proxy’s.
This is the best news since Trump announced we are withdrawing from Syria !
Anti-war, people over profits as the litmus test for a vote, any vote for any office. The war in Yemen is yet another horrific reoccurrence where we can stifle identity politics by simply stating Democrats and Republicans opposed to Obama and Trump.
This is the first genuinely good political news to emerge in a while. This is historic and heroic. The situation in Yemen is the most horrendous humanitarian crisis on the planet, and the United States aiding Saudi Arabia merely to uphold the petrodollar is abominable. The empire must fall – for the sake of greater humanity – and this is a commendable step from within our walls. The fact that Trump is trying to defy the Senate in this matter exposes him for what a corrupt, neocon sellout he has become.
As long as it’s black and brown people it’s fair game for war games,Africa,the Middle East and now Venezuela,why not stop the war games now against Venezuela???
Pray for Yemen 🤕ðŸ™
Thanks for covering, TRN.
If this is for real that's a good thing. But knowing the true nature of these people it may just be a ploy to placate people and gain public support for "liberating" Venezuela.
STOP THE WAR, stop bombing innocent civilians – children are the first victims… Thank you for this upload! Peace Be
What a wicked web we weave.
Was amendment 41 attached if so not worth the paper written on still allows assistance in supposedly their assistance in the area.
14 March –
US drops the word 'occupied' from report on Golan Heights, West Bank and Gaza. Israel bombs Gaza after it claims it was attacked, yet no claims of responsibility.
Hardly any coverage in mainstream media.
15 March (AM)
Mass shooting in Christchurch Mosques, New Zealand.
Mass coverage in mainstream media.
See a pattern yet.
The Arabs have always been tribal. They have been killing each other for centuries. All this vote will accomplish (if it passes) is to leave the Yemenese people open to more tragedic interference from other Arab countries.
Usa is like a vampire… other must beed to keep theyr dollar alive
Bernie is a god!
Bernie is such a joke but yeah Yemen needs to be helped out obv.
I’m the first to hit like on this
