Nearly the whole world, seemingly paid off by Saudi money, is waging war against Yemen. How else can one explain the silence that surrounds the Saudi bombing campaign that will lead to devastating starvation in Yemen and will turn that country into a second, bigger...
Israel gives cover and opened a corridor for Jabhat al-Nusra along the Golan height demarcation line to reach south Lebanon and the southern approaches to Damascus.There seems to be no concern in Tel Aviv that one day Jabhat al-Nusra could turn against Israel too....
