When an Arab addresses the US on the opinion pages of the New York Times

It is quite pathetic when an Arab is allowed to address the US on the opinion pages of the New York Times.  The requirements for the role are clear and simple: prostration and internalization of all US foreign principles.  Look at this Yemeni guy: he basically is saying that killing of Yemenis is not bad in itself but that it is bad only because it increases public hostility to the US.
