The Yemeni Child Compensates for the Balance of the Global Economy

SH.A.

For about four years, Yemeni children have been bombed and starved with utter impunity. Thousands have died in their homes or in hospitals as they waited in vain for medicines or lifesaving equipment to reach them. Tens of thousands more could die this year alone if urgent action is not taken to end the violence.

“Children who once felt they had a future, have seen their cities and their dreams turned to rubble. Half of all hospitals have now been damaged or destroyed, hundreds of schools have been levelled or attacked, and millions of children are on the brink of famine.

The war in Yemen is far more than just a political struggle, the political struggle does not even begin to capture a fraction of what the conflict is really about.

The war on Yemen today is a brutal example of how the expansion of global capitalist interests destroys nations.

Blessed with the region’s richest human resources, massive untapped oil/gas, mineral, water, and fishery wealth, Yemen has been the target of globalists since at least the 1920s.

Ever since the 1990s, the global economy has incrementally shifted, the petrodollar, once enabling the American Empire to finance endless wars, has been undermined by a growing crisis in liquidity, the resulting desperate search for new sources of capital animates the globalists’ drive to violently subdue the Middle East today.

Once attractive “emerging markets” offering investors desperate for higher returns a “sure thing” have become over-leveraged, the resulting crash and scramble to reverse a trend that sees much of the world’s savings shift away from the West has left much of New York and London exposed. Western equity markets and banks broadly speaking are now desperate to siphon off the last of the world’s liquid wealth before it is forever absorbed by Asia or Africa, this campaign implicates members of the GCC long responsible for assisting in redirecting much of the trillions earned from oil and gas industries back to the West.

On the other hand the sound of Yemen’s children keep saying that “We, the children of Yemen, are struggling to survive. We go to sleep to the sound of warplanes overhead and guns in the street. We wake up to more destruction.

“We are innocent, play no part in this war, and have committed no sins.

“And yet, we are missing out on an education as our schools are being destroyed. We are being denied our most basic rights of health, safety, and life. The longer the war continues, the more children will die.

“Disease will continue to spread, whilst health centers lack the medical supplies and vaccines needed to tackle them.
“We could be forced to work just to be able to eat. We are sad for our country, our families and our friends.

“And to the world, to all the big decision makers, we ask you to think of us before you wage a war.
