France 24 Finds 'Peaceful Operations' While UAE Funds War
France 24 highlights Hadramawt's 'peaceful bid' to retake military positions, a quaint framing for a conflict sustained by external powers. The article eventually mentions these positions were seized by 'UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC) separatists,' a key omission from the headline. This 'peaceful operation' occurs in a country devastated by years of intervention, where the
US-backed Saudi-led coalition (which includes the UAE) has bombed schools, hospitals, and infrastructure since 2015. The 'separatist advance' isn't some organic local squabble; it's a proxy move in a larger war, funded and armed by the very nations that claim to bring stability. How many more 'peaceful bids' will it take for the media to acknowledge the hand actively stirring the pot?
