Imagine what it’s like to live in the shittiest country in the world. Now imagine how it must feel to live in Yemen. But I repeat myself…
Ok, that was mean, but I’m afraid I don’t know how to be mean enough to convey how crappy Yemen must be and how miserable the people there probably are.
Consider: Yemen doesn’t have any water because its farmers have stopped growing food so they can grow qat instead. Qat is quite possibly the most pathetic drug known to mankind. Using it immediately and irreversibly turns one into an ars. By definition, Yemen sucks.
But it gets worse! Yemen is a lame, dusty desert, but it’s fucking surrounded by water! So why don’t they just build some desalination plants, or put on their collective puppy dog face (j/k – Arabs are scared to death of dogs) and get some UN agency to build them? America and Europe are full to the brim with SWPLs whose wet dream it would be to provide Yemen with potable water. That might work for about one day, but once the white engineers packed their bags, everyone knows the scrawny brown dudes would put on their dunce caps and totally fail to do any maintenance, let alone long-term planning. The plants would fall apart and your tax dollars would go down the proverbial toilet (not really, because Yemen doesn’t have much in the way of plumbing).
But wait – it gets even worse! Here’s a dude trying to figure out some decent irrigation techniques:
Mr. Amer, the farmer based here, proudly showed visitors his efforts to irrigate fruit and tomato fields using rubber tubes, instead of just funneling it through earthen ditches that allow most of the water to evaporate unused. Little hoses spray the crops with water instead of wastefully soaking them.
Actually, that methodology was invented in Israel by Jews, developed here, spread all around the world from here – yes, right here in Israel. If Yemen would so much as wink at Israel, the Israeli government would send thousands of agricultural scientists, engineers, technicians and probably social workers to Yemen so they could solve every problem there. But that’s not an option… They’d rather die of thirst, but in a narcotic buzz, than have any relationship with us.
ps. Note to New York Times: “millenniums” is so not a word.

Im a Engishman from the UK isnt Palestine ,Iraq, Afganistan,now yemen is in your sights , is that your next target! you disgust me.
As opposed to all the Englishmen not from the UK?
First, I totally disagreee with the references made to race. Its clear that Jews have contributed to this page. I am a Muslim but I have to agree with the observations of Yemen. Yes, Yemen is in a very poor disgusting state. I lived there for some time. The country is dirty, poor, and just really in a bad condition and they cant blame any nation, any religion, any race but themselves. You cant help a people if they dont want to help themselves. Even now, the international community gives them aid. Where does it go? They waste their own resources by growing qat and then beg from the rest of the international community. At first sight, the street people look worthy of charity. However, you will soon find out that they are scammers. This is their job. They love looking dirty on the street and sending their children to the street dirty with unkempt hair to beg for money. They train their children to pretend to live on the street and pretend that their parents are dead or in the villages. The electricity goes out for hours a day with no warning. THe fact that its on water should eliminate the lack of water, they also should be able to procude hydo electric plants for electricity. The people dont have manners. I can go on and on but yes I agree. YEMEN SUCKS
Hmmm, at least one Jew definitely contributed to this page.
