Inside Story - Yemen's 'days of rage'

On Saturday, Yemeni riot police shot dead a protester and injured at least five as thousands gathered in the capital Sanaa for a ninth day of protests. What are the risks of a political void in this volatile region?

ALthough very poor financially, Yemen is the most free country I've ever visited 20 yrs. ago. I love to hear the guys gathering in Yemen from the various regions of the globe, talking to one another. Its so funny. Each w/the dialects&mannerisms from whence they came....The Gulf, England, US/Canada. Only, after 91; not so many Yemeni-gulfers. These protests, all over, are about Money...somebody has all the money hoarded up, and the whole world is feeling it. These guys are at the bottom.Next?

Silly Yemenis. Don't they know the only way a brown person in a third world country can be free is to have his home destroy by American bombers and then to be kidnapped and waterboarded by NATO soldiers. Thats just how freedom works.

lemme get this right that guy says he started beating protestors because he wanted a peaceful change of government? so protect his brutal dictatorship he started beating protestors with a stick that has a nail in it?

fascinating logic

@dyljor No. Actually I watch Glen only to figure out what Murdoch and Rove want. Some aspects of Sharia Law are good, some are as bad as those one finds in Leviticus and Deuteronomy. I was thinking more of that "Caliphate" where Jews, Christians and Muslims lived peaceably, side by side. Such a one as produced the great Muslim mathematicians, astronomers, doctors etc.

@dyljor ..your iq must be lower, how can anyone on one side of the world implement sharia when they're not even a superpower? also, whats it got to do with you what the revolutionaries want in THEIR countries? you should shut up and concentrate whats happening in your country, where democracy is nothing but a name, at least true democracy is being shown here on this vid, do us a favour mate and keep out of other peoples problems, which was created by the imperialist west.

@vladdrac88

Hey Vladdrac88. So this is what these revolutions all about- 1 establish a caliphate and 2- impose Sharia Law on the West.

Let me guess, you get your news and "opinions" from Glenn Beck and just like ALL of his viewers, I venture to say that the 88 part of your name represents your IQ. Actually, I suggest that you drop one 8 from your name, and that might be more representative of your IQ.

I know more about this situation than these guests decided to speak about.

I'd love to see Muslim students at universities in various countries create an electronic / computer simulation caliphate...establish lines of communication...organize ...publicize goals etc. :)
