        TAKING MEASURES? Chris. We are complicit in the murder of innocent Yemeni families and children and we continue to make arms deals with the Saudi murderers who also just killed a resident US journalist. Where is the outrage?

        There are things happening that you could publicly support and advocate for but choose not to. Nobody who touts themselves as a "Human Rights Advocate" can take the position, "It's ok to bomb them so long as they have a full stomach."https://twitter.com/justinamash/status/1055098040883781633 …

        The world’s worst humanitarian crisis has been triggered by our secretive, illegal war in Yemen waged alongside the Saudi regime.

        Multiple reasons why so few care about the destruction of Yemen, which we've been reporting on since 2015: 1) Obama played key role in it; 2) US & UK provided the arms & intel; 3) US can't object to others' bombing given what it constantly does; 4) Yemenis are poor & invisible: https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1055768522071126016 …

        'Ensure the Saudi-led coalition is taking measures to protect civilians.'. They're the ones causing the famine. Unfortunately, this is as daft as telling the Saudis to investigate Khashoggi's murder!
