[Marxism] Arab World Losing Tolerance For Indifferent Leaders

[Dbachmozart@xxxxxxx]

When people feel there is no  justice in the world and no legitimate outlet 
for their justified  frustration, things tend to boil over. And that's what 
happened at a huge  anti-Israel, pro-Hamas demonstration in the Yemeni capital 
of 
Sana'a.

Sun, 28 Dec 2008 - "_Press TV_ 
(http://www.presstv.com/detail.aspx?id=79750&sectionid=3510303) " -- -More than 
30,000 people crammed into  the main Yemeni 
soccer stadium on Sunday to express their solidarity with  the suffering 
masses in Gaza. The day before Yemenis had been glued to  their television 
screens 
watching the scenes of suffering that followed  Israeli air strikes. Dead 
bodies in the streets, dismembered body parts  strewn everywhere, the cries of 
the 
wounded and the grieving -- scenes  Western viewers were only allowed to 
witness in part. 

The people  of Sana'a displayed amazing solidarity and love for their Muslim 
brethren,  dressed up in Hamas green and waving the Islamic movement's 
emblematic  flags. Pictures of the assassinated former Hamas leaders Sheikh 
Ahmed  
Yassin and Abdel Aziz al Rantisi were everywhere. The crowd chanted  
anti-Israel 
slogans and supported the right of Gazans to resist the  Israeli occupation. 

Up until then it was an impressive, lively,  yet in its way, quite 
predictable demonstration. Then something strange  happened.
