In more news no one gives a damn about, the Saudi-American slaughter in Yemen continues apace: 19 more civilians killed by our bombs, dropped by our freedom-loving allies, the anti-Semitic, woman-hating extremist religious tyrants. That very day, our bold, freedom-loving US Senators voted to approve the Peace Prize president's undeclared war against Yemen by defeating a move to block further arms sales to the Saudis. Meanwhile, "nearly half of Yemen's 22 provinces are on the verge of famine," which is being deliberately fomented by a US-led blockade of the desert nation. But don't worry; when the famine reaches genocidal proportions, you can bet George and Amal Clooney will host a big, glitzy A-list fundraiser, with their good friend, former President Barack Obama, making a special appearance to ask the guests to "dig deep" to support the poor victims in Yemen. Won't be a dry eye in the house!
