The Genocide in Yemen by a Coalition of War Criminals



“... the crisis unfolding in Yemen goes routinely under-reported in mainstream media. Hard-hitting coverage is kept to a minimum by those controlling the narrative — namely, outlets loyal to the U.S. and its allies which are enabling these atrocities.” Mnar Muhawesh. January 17, 2017.

“The Financial Times reports on the enormous humanitarian disaster inYemen:...
 If you relied on this report, you would not know that the Saudi-led coalition imposes a sea and air blockade of the country....
“Likewise, you wouldn’t know that the coalition has routinely bombed hospitals, clinics, sanitation plants, roads, and bridges, all of which have contributed to the famine and cholera crises in the country. The mass starvation in Yemen isn’t just happening. It is being created by ongoing policies of the coalition governments and their Western backers.” Daniel Larson, September 8, 2017. The American Conservative.


There is overwhelming evidence that there are war criminals that plotted and planned a number of wars in various countries. Yet, you won’t hear or see most of the corporate controlled media exposing the criminality of the powerful war perverts in our midst, or the victims of the war criminals and their war business....

There is a Holocaust in Yemen, does anyone care?
Children are being slaughtered by bombs from the air
Their parents are being killed and their homes destroyed
Are world “leaders” guilty and of sympathy devoid?

Cholera is raging and disease is rampant
Help from humanity is notably absent
Instead “our leaders” supply the weapons of death
Today’s war criminals are of decency bereft...

This Holocaust in Yemen is supported and supplied by weapons from the U.K. U.S.A. and other countries.

“In the last two years, the UK has licensed the sale of £3 billion (US$3.86 billion) worth of arms to the Saudi government. The sales have come under sustained scrutiny since the start of the Saudi-led bombing campaign in Yemen....
“The United Nations estimates around 2.5 million people have been displaced during the conflict, and 17,000 people have died.
“Despite this, Britain appears to be turning a blind eye to the conflict, with Saudi Arabia remaining the UK’s most important weapons client.
Arms sales have included Typhoon and Tornado jets and the UK has had military personnel embedded in Saudi headquarters throughout the Yemen conflict.” 8 Sep, 2017.

President Trump signed a $110 billion arms deal with Saudi Arabia on Saturday, the initial day of his first foreign trip since taking office.” Jordan Phelps and Ryan Struyk, May 20, 2017.

“Representatives of not one but two Canadian governments – a previous Conservative government that in its steadfast avarice struck a $15-billion arms deal with the devil, and a current Liberal government that in its flippant cynicism signed off on it – are, with great conviction, taking turns promising and demanding the most rigorous of investigations into the alleged war criminal they have each aided and abetted.” Shannon Gormley, Ottawa Citizen, August 4, 2017.

I believe that by continuing to sell arms to Saudi Arabia, leaders of the western world are partners in the crime of genocide in Yemen. Their coalition of carnage is a crime against humanity.

“The Saudi-led coalition and its Western patrons are among the chief authors of nightmarish conditions that threaten the lives of millions of innocent civilians.”
Daniel Larson, July 20, 2017. The American Conservative.

In closing, I believe we need present day Nuremberg Trials.

“The Nuremberg trials were a series of trials held between 1945 and 1949 in which the Allies prosecuted German military leaders, political officials, industrialists, and financiers for crimes they had committed during World War II

But, in today’s perverted society will the war criminals be brought to justice?

Is there no law when war criminals rule?
Countries are destroyed by warmongering ghouls
There is no justice, just chaos and death
And millions of people who have nothing left

The evil depredations of those in power
Create hell on earth, as countries they devour
Bloodstained profits accrue to this warring filth
Ethics and morals have long been killed

Slaughtered children die, and many starve
Yemen is an example of what evil has carved
Weapons of death and destruction too
Are supplied by this heinous war criminal crew...
