Obama Reaches Out To Apartheid Regime Purging Families From 2,500 Year Homes

You think that the Yemenite Jews who are fleeing their homes of 2,500 years - do you think they're taking their keys with them, to be passed on from father to son for the next 60 years while the UN supplies them with room and board? And if so, do you think the AP will publish surreal agitprop to criticize Yemen for this clear cut human rights atrocity, the way they demonize Israel for an Arab dislocation that is at best historically murky? I'm thinking probably not:
Yemen is in danger of losing what's left of its Jewish community, which has called the country home for more than 2,500 years and provided its kings for a century. Growing intimidation and violence are pushing the 300 Jews left in the Arabian Peninsula country to flee to Israel or the U.S. Four months ago, a Muslim extremist gunned down Jewish-studies teacher Moshe Yaish Nahari, a father of nine, in the town of Raida, north of the capital of Sana'a.
I only ask because Obama is reaching out to these cretins to help him with his misguided plan to close Gitmo. Luckily they seem to be responding well:
An informed source in the Yemeni government welcomed on Friday speech of the President of the United States of America Barack Obama which he delivered in Cairo for the Islamic and Arab worlds. The source described the speech as balanced with regards to stances towards the Islamic religion and the Arab-Israeli conflict, specially adherence to the two-countries solution, the Palestinian and Israeli, stopping building settlements and his confession of the Palestinians' rights and that security of Israeli is linked to a just solution of the Arab-Israeli conflict.
Less high on Yemen's list: closing the terrorist camps that their intelligence services use for political ends, up to and including the targeting of domestic opponents:
Yemen President Ali Abdullah Saleh faces crises on many fronts. A southern populist uprising in the six governorates of the former PDRY has taken on separatist overtones. At the same time, the northern Saada war with Zaidi Shiite rebels may erupt for the sixth time since 2004. As a result, Saleh has embarked on a strategy of empowering Islamic militants who, in exchange, have been given a free hand over some local populations.
At least those camps don't then become safe havens for international terrorism. Think how awkward that would be.
