Not in the US press: the US role in the Yemen war

The US press has been largely ignoring the war in Yemen. The NYT and other newspapers have published articles here and there. But none mentioned anything about the American role in Iraq. Make no mistake about it: this is an Obama war, not a Bush war inherited by Obama. It is clear that the Saudi intervention is coordinated by the US. But you know what is very conspiratorial and fishy? (Here you are supposed to ask me: what? What o, wise one? What o all-knowing one?) The daily press briefing at the Department of State has been ignoring Yemen completely although Ash-Sharq Al-Awsat (the mouthpiece of Prince Salman) carried a front page story two days ago to the effect that the US government supports Saudi bombing of Yemen). Look at the press briefings at State yourself. And now this: "The U.S. and Yemen have signed a military and security cooperation agreement in Sanaa after officials from both countries concluded two days of talks. The U.S. embassy in Yemen declined to confirm the agreement reported by the local media as being signed Tuesday, only admitting there were talks about counterterrorism. The embassy spokeswoman, Debrah Smith, said Brigadier General Jeffrey Smith, the commander of the U.S. 5th Signal Command, was present in the talks."
