The Coup Is Complete: US Embassy In Yemen Shutting Down, Ambassador To Leave By Wednesday
Another US-friendly regime has folded completely, and after bumbling US foreign intervention in Libya and Egypt made the countries into terrorist breeding grounds where Americans are kidnapped on sight or worse, it is now Yemen's turn: another country in the Middle East whose president until recently was backed by the US government, and which will now be nothing more than civilian casualty fodder for remote-controlled US drones.
- YEMENI EMPLOYEES SAY US AMBASSADOR IN YEMEN INFORMS STAFF THE EMBASSY IS CLOSING DOWN COMPLETELY, AMBASSADOR TO LEAVE BY WEDNESDAY
For those Americans who are still on location, fear not: you are in good hands:
- US TO ASK TURKEY OR ALGERIA TO LOOK AFTER ITS INTERESTS IN YEMEN WHILE THE EMBASSY IS CLOSED - YEMENI US EMBASSY EMPLOYEES
And now it's time for Obama to discuss just how "isolated" Putin really is.

WINNING!
Obama The Mesiah
I have a suspicion that very soon we all will be reading about the war between Iran and Saudi Arabia.
A single shot fired will cause the price of oil to sky-rocket, which is droolingly-delicious to too many countries. I think? ;-)
Looney
Both Isreal and US would like that. Hey Harvey ... write up a script....
I just have one question. Who is next on the top 10 list of US success stories? I'm kinda liking Portugal here. They have been just a little too quiet lately. Bizzar I know...but it's a bizzaro world.
we're just clearing out the target field for some nukes
United States foreign policy for the past 50 years can be summed-up in the following sentence:
"The enemy of my enemy, who once was my friend, is now also my enemy..."
"Authorization Limits Ground Forces
Feb 10, 2015 12:33 PM ESTBy Josh Rogin
President Barack Obama will soon give Congress his proposal for a new authorization for the use of military force against Islamic State fighters, and it will place strict limits on the types of U.S. ground forces that can be deployed.
Almost six months after the president began using force against the Islamic State advance in Iraq and then in Syria, the White House is ready to ask Congress for formal permission to continue the effort. Until now, the administration has maintained it has enough authority to wage war through the 2001 AUMF on al-Qaeda, the 2003 AUMF regarding Iraq and Article II of the Constitution. But under pressure from Capitol Hill, the White House has now completed the text of a new authorization and could send it to lawmakers as early as Wednesday."
tell your congessman to VOTE NO...notthathewilldoso....
this shit did get the nobel peace prize right??
That's okay, they'll be isolated like three quarters of the world. Rally on!
So the Drone strikes were a success, right? I'm confused.
Today's The Prisoner's pop quiz:
Who said it: "being the USA's enemy is dangerous, but being its friend is lethal."?
Bonus question: Where will the US cut and run from next?
I sure hope it's Saudi Arabia, but that might be the anti-Semite in me.
Henry the K, RE: Vietnam/Nixon/Thieu?
If it is SA, you get a two-fer on the anti-Semite front.
A man can dream.
Agree but the Question is who will fire the first shot. Venezuella, Russia, Qatar, England, US Shale producers and a few others? Notice that Saudi Arabia and Iran are not in the list.
False-flag by some intelligence agency, of course.
Not even thinking it may be an Intelligence Agancy. Heck the Banksters run the world and they are on the hook for the CDS's for the bonds on the Shale Oil producers. Billions at stake there? Add them to the list?
.
Iran would overrun saudis in a blink if ever permitted. Guerrilla warfare can only go so far....... and remember it took the first special forces officer in the modern sense in Lawrence of Arabia to do it in world war one declining ottoman empire.
Oh I was going to say that the fix is in I am
sure those in the know are long oil . Prob build up just in time
for an oil shock that finally brings down stock just as or after Obama
leaves office .
"What difference at this point does it make!" Wicked Witch of the East (BTW "There ain't nuthin uglier than an old white woman." Fred Sanford, Sanford and Son)
Is it really an Embassy? There never was an Embassy in Benghazi, even the State Department never had one listed. Look how that turned out.
"What difference does it make?!?"
No it's not really an embassy, it's really a military base, especially compared to the old one.
Along with this lovely picture of your tax dollars at work inside the wire, I'll throw this nickle in the Rinse, Repeat machine...
After the collapse of the Ottoman Empire in 1918, North Yemen became an independent republic while South Yemen continued under the British until Britain withdrew in 1967. British authorities left southern Yemen in November 1967 in the wake of an intense terrorist campaign. The two countries were formally unified as the Republic of Yemen in 1990.

No shit.
Iran won in Yemen. FUCK YOU BARRY
So, what evidence do you have that Barry and Iran are on different sides?
1) He pulled troops from Iraq and invited Iran in - effectively giving them half the country.
2) Sent them a newer surveillance drone - gratis.
3) Pulled troops from Afganistan. Guess who is right on their border? Think they won't make a move?
Obama signed sanctions for Iran...
He added his name to a piece of paper!? While he gave away countries.
He said 'X' and he did '-X'. Seems like a consistent thing with him, no?
I give up, you win
Behavior reflects personality. Only thing that is transparent about the corrupt divisive incompetent arrogant narcissitic illegal indonesian kenyan alien muslim sociopathic pathologic liar in chief fudge packer...
Obama and ISIS win again!
The Houthi militia (who control Yemen's capital) would be opposed to ISIS and A.Q. and have been fighting A.Q. the last few years.
They "would"? You're good at prophecy?
Learn this Arab saying:
Me against my brothers, me and my brothers against my cousins, me and my brother and my cousins against the worldahhhhhh........ it is not so black & white. There are other factors & dynamics at play .........which just might countermand your assertion. this is the middle east for heaven's sake...where a mother might disown her children for reasons no asian or westerner could ever fathom (or likely encounter)
FAATPHRIO
Another successful counter terrorism operation/policy. So good we can pack everyone up and leave. What a fucking mess.
Obama handing over the entire middle east to jihadi islam. The emerging caliphate grows.
What master does Obama serve?
Beck was right
He is proving to be the mancurian candidate.
The Manicurean Candidate !
ISIS eschatology yearns for chaos so that the Mahdi can be ushered in.
mahdiwatch.org
ISIS do as they are told by their masters for money and the opportunity to kill, torture and pillage.
Which makes them different from US backed mercenaries how?
But but, didn't you know US mercenaries do it to protect your freedom! You should get down and kiss their asses
lol, the zh jihadis out downvoting their little black hearts out.
You got me, I am a card carrying member of Allah OutbakStakeHaus
Reggie's azz burgers....
He built that
When will the Lame Stream Media understand that no one internationally is going to isten to a black man. Doesn't matter if he was born in Hawaii and has many different US Social Security numbers.
It's not the fact that he is black. It's the fact that he is stupid and have no contenance.
The pro Hezbollah/Iranian Houthi tribesmen who have taken over the Yemeni capital may be able to close down or disrupt traffic through the Suez canal, Russia is making trade and economic deals with Egypt (where Suez is located) and the Iranians can close down or disrupt the Straits of Hormuz.
If they were to disrupt the Suez and Straits of Hormuz at same time would that be a form of unconventional warfare that Putin was talking about a few years ago?
Since Obama has equated terrorism with street crime I hope they put up the yellow tape at this "crime scened."
Perhaps fewer dronings of wedding parties would help the image?
At this point, what difference does it make? Also acceptable would be "You didn't build that coup".
US TO ASK TURKEY OR ALGERIA TO LOOK AFTER ITS INTERESTS IN YEMEN WHILE THE EMBASSY IS CLOSED
Oh thank god for Turkey and Algeria!
either the Saudis are really clueless or stupid or preoccupied. But they, in my most humble opinion, are out of their minds to trust Erdogan.
Mission accomplished...
http://www.juancole.com/2014/10/takeover-yemens-endanger.html
SA being surrounded. OPEC is dead. Russia, Saudi Arabia and Iran will be the new controllers of energy.
Next stop on the new global world order chaos express........ Saudi (thank you Lawrence of ...... for helping us overthrow the dastardly Ottoman Turks...who just might be coming back compliments of man of law Erdogan) Arabia.
There are way more cards Putin is going to play (and I am sad to write the preceding) .......
.......all the hedge fund geniuses may just get their rear ends handed to them.......and as much as I disdain Putin ........ it would be something to see if he could decimate capo soros
Must say that the chaos part of 'The order out of chaos' cult is working out tremendously well. Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya Ukraine and what have you ...

Attention American in Yemen: GTFO, we are about to step up our drone game.
USA (country of peace)
"Mission Accomplised" where's the leftist obfuscating media to celebrate this?
Suspect that Yemen will be finding out that it's supply chains are curtailed even more so as a result of recent events.
At some point that has affect, and people start to question not only their own personal philosophy and economic viability, but their leaders guidance too.
Lurch, you're doing a heckuva job.
Once again US Foreign Policy and CIA meddling produces disaster. Yet no State Department Official will be fired or CIA agent fired. This is the American model in the 21st century.
Failure is rewarded at all levels.
correct.
Hasbara is throwing another hissy fit about the people of a country actually rising up in favor of self-determination.
Exactly. Anyone dissapointed or calling this a failure is obviously pulling for the status quo. GO USA lol. It does identify the joos doesn't it?
ISIS will have more openings: Jihadi Pool Boy and Jihadi life guards wanted...waterproof explosive vests provided free of charge...
"Failure is rewarded at all levels." - man, ain't that the truth...You can take that to the bank....
This country is run by a bunch of stupid fucks.
Evil stoopid phocks........
So let's just pull out of life, brings the troops home, give the bases back to the locals along with the admonishion to "don't call us, we'll call you" and resume our idillic life within the borders of the United States and let the rest of the world crater.
It's Fantasy. We can't do a tenth of what we currently do without the rest of the worlds resources, tech or labor. We can't close the borders because we (the US) don't make anything. Paper cups? (South America) Clothing? (Pakistan, India, Asia) Filters for Medical Resperiators? (Mexico). You think our level of healthcare is bad now, wait till we close the border! Car parts, some, tech stuff, Nope, Food in season, not out of it and less of it and more expensive. At least Oleo will make a comeback along with homemade bread and backyard gardens.
earnulf, you may be stupid you may be an idiot, but did you get paid today for that trash? if so I guess you stayed at a cheap hotel last night. no really are you that stupid ..the world depends on our markets we in fact do not need all that stuff we can make it here. but that would not work for the NWO elite corps and banks.
What he really meant to say was that the CEO's of the fortune 500 need the ability to fuck the rest of the world out of their resources and labor. Thats all he really gives a shit about and he knows that takes a big military presence along with 700+ bases spread out around the world.
We still make money !
The US should never wonder why its' middle east "partners" don't fucking trust us.
Yemen is a shithole with strategic value.
Joke:
Why there will never be a coup in USA?
Because there is no US Embassy in USA.
drone wars like Yemen don't work because killing ten innocent people for every enemy killed creates more new enemies.
Finally, some downsizing that is good news
