The Bronx is united with Yemen Statement of the Bronx Antiwar Coalition, Jan. 12, 2024 The Bronx Antiwar Coalition strongly condemns the U.S.-  and British-led bombing of Yemen, a nation that fulfilled its duty under Article 1 of the Genocide Convention to defend Palestine and penalize Israel

Today, the defenders of justice, soldiers of righteousness and keepers of honor are Yemeni. We witness a people engaged in a war solely to defend human dignity, without any ulterior or profit motives. The anti-imperialist people of the world resisting Western hegemony stand with Yemen. We demand the U.S. and Britain remove its presence from the Red Sea, the Gulf of Oman and all of West Asia.

We salute Yemen — its people, leadership and army — for their unwavering stance in upholding the cause of Palestine and supporting Gaza, regardless of the consequences. We declare our unwavering support for our Yemeni siblings in the face of this brutal and immoral aggression.

The heroic people of Yemen will teach the U.S. empire a lesson in humility. Yemen will be the graveyard of invaders, and history will forever remember Yemen’s heroism.

Victory for Yemen is a victory for all of us. The Bronx stands united with Yemen. Death to U.S.-British-Western imperialism! Long live resistance, from Palestine to Yemen!
