brooklyn13, So now you are suggesting my distaste at barbarism and injustice is confined to picking on Israel. LOL You are the first one who has laid that accusation. Truly unique. Is it perhaps your openly sycophantic attachment to the Zionists of Greater Israel that drives you to such baseless accusation.

Ok, let us play a bit. How about:

The One Million Tibetan Children in China’s Boarding Schools

"The US says China is committing genocide against the Uyghurs. Here's some of the most chilling evidence.

"China expands mass labour program to Tibet, forcing farmers into factories""

Where is your empathy for Tibetan children. And the Uighers (Uyghurs) And your expressed empathy for fellow Americans

Black Lives Matter (BLM) is a decentralized political and social movement that seeks to highlight racism, discrimination, and racial inequality experienced by black people, and promote anti-racism. Its primary concerns are incidents of police brutality and racially motivated violence against black people.[1][2][3][4][5] It started following the killings of Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, Eric Garner, and Rekia Boyd, among others.

I don't know how many you have posted concerning the concerns of BLM. I have put up plenty.

And also, though likely not so many, many on the Yemeni conflict. Since that war started in 2014 i started my
Yemen search then. Perhaps it was your influence that included this one in the batch mentioning Yemen there:

[...] Finally, as many commentators have noted, even if Israel were successful in its stated aim of destroying or weakening Hamas, this would only result in even more militant groups emerging, perhaps even Al Qaeda type groups such as ISIS, gaining support from a traumatised population by promising revenge attacks and uncompromising armed jihad. Whilst many have argued that this would somehow be against Israel’s interests, the reverse is likely to be true. Groups such as ISIS have played a key role in facilitating US and British policies in the Middle East in recent years, by weakening independent regional powers (or potential regional powers) such as Libya, Syria and now Iraq.

They would likely have the same effect on Palestine, and would certainly set back the prospects for the emergence of a Palestinian state: they would never countenance, for example, unity with Fatah, and would rather serve to provide a permanent pretext for savage Israeli attacks which Western Europe and North America would be obliged to support. Moreover, if Gaza became an ungoverned and ungovernable disaster zone – which is what Israel is in the process of creating – there would of course be no question of its gaining sovereignty over its territory, and even less over its waters and gas reserves. Israel would remain free to bomb at will, just as the US and Britain remain free to bomb at will in the failed states they have created in Somalia, Libya, Yemen and Iraq.

Why Are the U.S. and Iran Sending Warships to the Yemeni Coast?
By Paul McLeary April 20, 2015 - 6:41 pm @paulmcleary
[...] For weeks, a Saudi-led coalition has been conducting daily airstrikes against the Houthis. Washington isn’t taking part in the bombing runs, but the United States has been refueling warplanes from Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates in the air in between bombing runs. Saudi Arabia claims its campaign is making steady progress, but human rights groups say .. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-32381797 .. not enough is being done to prevent civilian casualties.

Bombing campaign against rebels in Yemen is over, Saudis say

That halt was good. Then. Try 2016:

U.S. Ship Fires Missiles at Yemeni Rebel Sites
[...].. marked the first time the United States has become involved militarily in the civil war between the Houthis, an indigenous Shiite group with loose connections to Iran, and the Yememi government, which is backed by Saudi Arabia and other Sunni nations. The strikes were approved by President Obama, said Peter Cook, the Pentagon spokesman, who warned of more to come if American ships were fired upon again.
[...]This American role has drawn criticism from human rights groups who condemn the campaign as reckless. More than 4,000 civilians have been killed since the bombing began, according to the United Nations’ top human rights official .. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/10/world/middleeast/us-navy-ship-attacked-near-yemen.html , Zeid Ra’ad al-Hussein.
P - That number includes at least 140 people who were killed in an airstrike on a funeral ceremony last weekend in the Yemeni capital, Sana. The strike prompted the administration to promise a review of the American military assistance to the Saudis “so as to better align with U.S. principles, values and interests.”

Ok some good little revision info in there for all of us.

Dunno, jump to 2018. Ok..

The Tragedy of Saudi Arabia’s War

"ForReal: Citizen Trump was right about the Saudis; President Trump, not so much"

Amal Hussain, 7, is wasting away from hunger. The Saudi-led war in Yemen has pushed millions to the brink of starvation.

The Saudis point out that they, along with the United Arab Emirates, are among the most generous donors to Yemen’s humanitarian relief effort. Last spring, the two allies pledged $1 billion in aid to Yemen. In January, Saudi Arabia deposited $2 billion in Yemen’s central bank to prop up its currency.

But those efforts have been overshadowed by the coalition’s attacks on Yemen’s economy, including the denial of salaries to civil servants, a partial blockade that has driven up food prices, and the printing of vast amounts of bank notes, which caused the currency to plunge.

And the offensive to capture Hudaydah, which started in June, has endangered the main lifeline for imports to northern Yemen, displaced 570,000 people and edged many more closer to starvation.

A famine here, Mr. Lowcock warned, would be “much bigger than anything any professional in this field has seen during their working lives.”

[...]

In 2016, the Saudi-backed Yemeni government transferred the operations of the central bank from the Houthi-controlled capital, Sana, to the southern city of Aden. The bank, whose policies are dictated by Saudi Arabia, a senior Western official said, started printing vast amounts of new money — at least 600 billion riyals, according to one bank official. The new money caused an inflationary spiral that eroded the value of any savings people had.

The bank also stopped paying salaries to civil servants in Houthi-controlled areas, where 80 percent of Yemenis live. With the government as the largest employer, hundreds of thousands of families in the north suddenly had no income.

At the Sabeen hospital in Sana, Dr. Huda Rajumi treats the country’s most severely malnourished children. But her own family is suffering, too, as she falls out of Yemen’s vanishing middle class.

In the past year, she has received only a single month’s salary. Her husband, a retired soldier, is no longer getting his pension, and Dr. Rajumi has started to skimp on everyday pleasures, like fruit, meat and taxi rides, to make ends meet.

“We get by because people help each other out,” she said. “But it’s getting hard.”

Take my word there are many many more on the war in Yemen. Pay your dues and you would be able
to search my posts for them. If you did perhaps you would not be guilty of so many baseless slurs.
