10/25/17 Nasser Arrabyee updates the U.S.-Saudi War in Yemen

Nasser Arrabyee returns to the show and updates the fighting in Yemen where Saudi airstrikes continue throughout the country, including in Sana’a. Arrabyee explains how Yemen has devolved into a mess of conflicting tribal and national interests. Scott introduces H.Con.Res.81 and explains what you can do to help stop the U.S. war in Yemen, which has, among other things led to nearly a million cases of cholera infections in the country. There are two different kinds of people being killed every day in Yemen according to Arrabyee: those who are killed in the continual airstrikes and those who are killed by starvation. Finally, Scott asks whether there’s a potential diplomatic solution to the conflict in Yemen.
