Where's our boat?

Post by Nightshade »

Everyone is evacuating their citizens from Yemen....
WNU Editor: This is very telling .... China evacuates its citizens and foreigners from Yemen .... U.S. citizens feel abandoned .... Americans in Yemen fear they have been left behind as bombing escalates (The Guardian). In fact .... there is no plan to evacuate them .... Washington Has No Evacuation Plans for US Citizens Stranded in Yemen (Sputnik).

Update #2: US State Department Issues Travel Warning For Yemen But Will Not Conduct A Government-Led Evacuation Of Americans -- IBTimes

WNU Editor: This is becoming typical of U.S. main stream news coverage .... very little if any news media coverage of this story .... and almost none on U.S. citizens being stranded.

EXCEPT us. Is Obama essentially handing over US citizens to the Iranian-supported Houthi rebels as hostages?

Yemen has been listed as non-approved for US citizen travel for a couple years now, doesn't that become the problem of citizens who chose to go there? China's citizens may or may not have gone against government approval....any information as to why they were there to retreive?
