Petraeus and Yemen: Innocent US intervention

David Petraeus was on Al-Arabiyya TV (the private station of King Fahd's brother-in-law who is now politically run by Prince `Azzuz, who suffered from years of obsession with Yasmeen Bleeth since he first saw her on Baywatch), where else. He of course had to receive the softball questions that US officials receive at this Saudi propaganda station. He was asked whether the US had a role in the war in Yemen. He said: (almost vervatim): only in the realm of aid that we provide to Yemen as we provide to other governments in the region.
