Yemen Explosion: The 'Commander' They're Protecting While Obliterating a Nation
📰 THE STORY: The New Arab reports that two soldiers were killed by an explosion targeting a commander in the pro-government Southern Giants Brigade in Aden, Yemen, with no immediate claim of responsibility. 🔍 WHAT THEY'RE NOT TELLING YOU: Historical Context: This 'pro-government' Southern Giants Brigade operates within a nation utterly shattered by a Western-backed, Saudi-led coalition war that

or 'instability,' is deemed newsworthy. Yet, the systematic destruction of Yemen's infrastructure, hospitals, and schools by Western-supplied bombs—leading to mass starvation and cholera outbreaks—is routinely downplayed or attributed to 'the conflict' without naming the perpetrators or their Western enablers.
