Millions flocked to the Yemeni capital, Sana’a this Saturday to publicly declare their support and allegiance to the Resistance – as fronted by the Ansarallah movement. As the crowd roared its determination to withstood foreign aggression, Saudi jets flew low in the sky – yet another attempt to bully a people into compliance.
Undeterred men, women, and children stood in the capital, defiant in their determination to push against Wahhabi imperialism – a nation united in its Freedom, its faith, and its pluralism.

As Yemen defied yet again its aggressor, the United States announced it was withdrawing its military expert from Saudi Arabia’s war rooms – a last ditch effort to distance Washington from the abominable war crimes Riyadh has committed since March 2015.
Fewer than five U.S. service people are now assigned full-time to the “Joint Combined Planning Cell,” which was established last year to coordinate U.S. support, including air-to-air refueling of coalition jets and limited intelligence-sharing, Lieutenant Ian McConnaughey, a U.S. Navy spokesman in Bahrain, told Reuters.
That is down from a peak of about 45 staff members who were dedicated to the effort full-time in Riyadh and elsewhere, he said.
