Up until this summer, the genocide happening in Yemen was mostly being conducted by Saudi Arabia and the UAE. Nearly a quarter of a million people have died. America's involvement was largely limited to giving the Saudis logistical and naval assistance.
That changed this year.

In a letter addressed to Congress earlier this week, President Joe Biden confirmed that the U.S. has deployed troops to Yemen with the aim of battling extremist groups and continuing military support for the Saudi-led coalition.

“A number of American military personnel are deployed in Yemen,” the U.S. president said,

The idea that we are sending U.S. troops into Yemen to both assist the Saudis and fight al-Qaeda is laughable. We already know that the Saudis have cut deals with al-Qaeda in Yemen. We also know that weapons that we gave to the Saudis wound up in the hands of al-Qaeda in Yemen.

Saudi Arabia and its coalition partners have transferred American-made weapons to al Qaeda-linked fighters, hardline Salafi militias, and other factions waging war in Yemen, in violation of their agreements with the United States, a CNN investigation has found.

The weapons have also made their way into the hands of Iranian-backed rebels battling the coalition for control of the country, exposing some of America's sensitive military technology to Tehran and potentially endangering the lives of US troops in other conflict zones.

So then why are we sending U.S troops to Yemen? To answer that it helps to know where in Yemen our troops will be stationed.

Local sources in the Yemeni province of Al-Mahra reported on 28 July that a new batch of US troops had landed at Al-Ghaydah airport, in the capital of Al-Mahra...
Earlier this month, Prime Minister of the National Salvation Government (NSG) Abdulaziz Saleh bin Habtoor warned that Washington is looking to control Yemen’s natural resources.

During a meeting between Bin Habtoor and the governors of Hadhramaut and Al-Mahra, the Yemeni premier emphasized that the US wants to exploit Yemen’s oil fields, as they did and continue to do in Syria.

Most of Yemen is barren and lacking in resources.
Yet somehow our troops are getting deployed in the one region of Yemen that has oil. Isn't that curious?
Another illegal occupation by U.S. forces is happening in eastern Syria. It just so happens that one of the few parts of Syria that has oil also happens to be where U.S. troops are stationed.

On 23 July, US occupation troops smuggled a new batch of stolen Syrian oil into their military bases in Iraq via the illegal Al-Mahmoudiya border crossing.
According to local sources, a convoy of 35 tanker trucks filled with Syrian oil was escorted out of the resource-rich Jazira region of northern Syria by the US army.

Around the same time, another convoy of 23 vehicles – including tankers and covered trucks loaded with military equipment and logistical materials – crossed the illegal Al-Waleed border crossing.
The US occupation army and their proxy militia in northern Syria – the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) – control most of the oil fields in Hasakah and Deir Ezzor, but operate under the pretext of protecting Syria’s resources from falling under the control of ISIS.

Over the past year and a half, they have intensified the looting of Syria’s natural resources, smuggling out hundreds of trucks filled with oil and wheat to sell abroad.

In April 2020, President Trump issued a waiver for Delta Crescent Energy to pillage Syria's oil. Biden has since expired the waiver, but the pillaging continues.

Want to know another nation that our troops have recently invaded in order to "guard" their oil? Libya.

Washington has abandoned all its previous reservations and fully entered the Libyan fray to the point of appearing as the main actor in the settlement process, as it presses for the withdrawal of mercenaries and the unification of the army...
The Act requires the US President to impose sanctions on individuals hindering stabilisation efforts, violating human rights, looting state assets or natural resources and committing war crimes and violating the arms embargo imposed by the United Nations.

That's amusing. Libya has been unstable because of our actions 11 years ago. Our allies are the ones who have violated human rights. And we are there to loot state assets and natural resources.
