    I do have to say the article is still crap and exposes how ignorant the west still is about Yemen. The same reason they didn’t see it coming, they are ignorant and proud.

    Almost overnight, a militant movement in the remote badlands of Yemen

    What they refer to as “remote badlands” is Yemen’s richest, most fertile and most populous region (90% of the population living there).

      Not to mentions high civilisation existed there when their own cities were remote wilderness.
