Saudi Arabia: The War In Yemen

October 30, 2018 By Malcolm Blair-Robinson

Shocking though the murder of the journalist Jamal Khashoggi certainly is in fact, in its grizzly brutality and in the difficulty in getting the Saudi’s to admit the truth, the even bigger worry is the war in Yemen.

Because in Yemen many tens of thousands are already dead, but many more will die and especially many children, unless action is taken now to stop the war, end the blockade and allow critical supplies to reach the trapped civilian population. In other words we can save lives if we bring optimum pressure to bear on the Saudis. We have to do that. Nothing sadly can bring Jamal Khashoggi back to his family and friends, but we can all contribute to saving so many children and innocent civilians leaving theirs. Now is the moment for the government to act.
