5. I don't think the people in the US care

They are xenophobic and all the middle east countries are the same to them. Those people are dark-skinned, don't speak our language or eat our food or wear our clothes. They are heathens whose holy book like the bible should be allowed to be burned here in a show of hatred and ignorance. By an alleged holy man! That is now called free speech in the US. The US only cares about the US.

7. The silence is deafening

If there is a thread anywhere on DU covering the escalation of U.S. MIlitary activities to further U.S.-style democracy, it is hidden like the Obama administration's official policy.

8. The administration threw Saleh under the bus, per NYTs yesterday.

They now officially want him out.
