4/30/21 Aisha Jumaan on US Complicity in Yemen’s Dire Humanitarian Crisis
Aisha Jumaan discusses the situation in Yemen. Although the Biden administration claimed earlier this year that it would end American support for Saudi “offensive operations” in Yemen, they have recently announced that certain support functions—like providing maintenance and spare parts for the Saudi air force—will continue. But this bald-faced reversal, says Jumaan, isn’t even the main issue. Yes, the Saudis are killing innocent Yemenis in air strikes and other direct attacks, but by far the biggest threat to the health and safety of Yemeni civilians today is the Saudi blockade, which continues to stop critical goods like food and medicine from getting into the country. Those who care about ending this U.S.-sponsored humanitarian crisis must forcefully oppose continued American support for the war in all its forms.
Discussed on the show:
- “Biden “Continues to Support Saudi Aggression on the People of Yemen”” (accuracy.org)
- “In Yemen ‘Diplomacy is Back.’ What Next?” (Newsweek)
- “Murphy Chairs First Subcommittee Hearing on Yemen” (murphy.senate.gov)
- “Quiet Support for Saudis Entangles U.S. in Yemen” (The New York Times)
- “‘We Think the Price Is Worth It’” (FAIR)
Dr. Aisha Jumaan is an epidemiologist and the founder and president of the Yemen Relief and Reconstruction Foundation. Find her on Twitter @AishaJumaan.
