If you really want a serious answer to your question, then I suggest that you try to find a publication that specializes in following then activities of Congress.
Thanks for the suggestion, but that's not exactly what I want. I've contacted my own senators about about the need to consider the geostrategic consequences of our actions in Yemen. I would like to augment that with either a petition or a demonstration to call attention to those consequences and demand that any show of disapproval of Saudi Arabia's actions be restricted to what would not effectively surrender the Bab-el-Mandeb to Iran.

“But more always seems to be demanded of the Jewish nation and of the Jewish people than of others. Jews, unlike other groups, are expected to be in the forefront of defending the rights of their sworn enemies.”

Harvard Law Professor Alan M. Dershowitz said:
“I refuse to bend over backward to single out Israel – or other things Jewish – for super-scrutiny.
I refuse to gloat, as so many in academia and the media seem to, over Israel’s shortcomings.”

Winston Churchill said this in 1937 CE:
“When the Mohammedan upset occurred in world history, and the great hordes of Islam swept over these places, they broke it [Palestine] all up, smashed it all up. You have seen the terraces on the hills which used to be cultivated, which under Arab rule have remained a desert.”

CHRONOLOGY:
Winston Churchill was British Prime Minister from 1940 to 1945 CE and from 1951 to 1955 CE.

Winston Churchill said [in year 1955 CE]:
“You ought to let the Jews have Jerusalem; it is they who made it famous.”

Historically, America has been on the side of the South in bifurcated countries, South Korea and South Vietnam. The exception was Yemen, where we were on the side of North Yemen. Now we seem to be on the side of South Yemen. The problem is the lack of anything like good guys. It is impossible to defend Saudi Arabia and its conduct in this war, yet the Houthis will not come to the table. Ruth Benedict, the anthropologist, told the State Department that Japan was an honor/shame culture. That's only part of it, Japan was also a win/lose culture, either you won or lost and compromise was losing. The same is true of the Arab/Persian culture and that is really the problem.
Dear Sar Shalom,
ReplyDeleteI tried to find the answer to your question
with two google searches.
This was the best answer I could find:
www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/dec/11/punishing-the-saudi-prince/
If you really want a serious answer to
your question, then I suggest that you
try to find a publication that specializes
in following then activities of Congress.
Sincerely,
Mr. Cohen
