E paʻa pū mākou i kahi ākea ākea mai ka United Nations ma ka pā ʻo Isaiah. I ko mākou hoʻokē ʻai ʻana mai nā meaʻai paʻa a pau, koi mākou i nā poʻe ʻē aʻe e hui pū me mākou i ke kāhea ʻana i kahi pane kanaka i ka pōʻino make e kū nei i nā poʻe kīwila Yemeni nona ka ʻāina, i luku ʻia e ke kaua kīwila a i hoʻopaʻa pinepine ʻia me Saudi a me US airstrikes, aia i kēia manawa ma ke ʻano o ka wī. . Ke kākoʻo nei ʻo US i kākoʻo ʻia e Saudi-led coalition i ka hoʻokō ʻana i kahi pale kai ma nā wahi i paʻa ʻia e kipi. Lawe mai ʻo Yemen i ka 90% o kāna meaʻai; ma muli o ka paʻa ʻana, ke piʻi aʻe nei nā kumukūʻai meaʻai a me ka wahie a aia ka hemahema ma nā pae pilikia.

ʻOi aku ma mua o 10,000 poʻe i make, ʻo ia hoʻi Nā keiki 1,564, a ua hoʻoneʻe ʻia nā miliona mai ko lākou mau home.
Ma kēia kūlana koʻikoʻi, pono nā moku'āina a pau o ka UN e hoʻopau i ka hoʻopauʻana i ka papa hana a me nā mea mua, ka hoʻopuniʻana i nā pū, a me kahi kūkākūkāʻana no ke kaua ma Yemen.
ʻOiai e pōloli ana nā keiki Yemeni, ʻo nā mea hana mea kaua US, me General Dynamics, Raytheon, a me Lockheed Martin, ke loaʻa nei ka waiwai mai ke kūʻai aku ʻana i nā mea kaua i Saudi Arabia.
Ma ke ʻano he kamaʻāina ʻo ʻAmelika, aia iā mākou ke kuleana e hōʻoia i ka US:
- Hoʻopau i nā hoʻouka kaua drone a me nā "hana kūikawā" koa i loko o Yemen

- Hāʻawi i ka uku i ka poʻe i loaʻa i nā pohō ma muli o nā hoʻouka kaua US.
E paʻa mākou i ka lehulehu ma ka pā ʻo Isaiah, ma ke alanui mua ma waena o 42nd a me 43rd Alanui, mai ka hora 10:00 a.m. a i ka hora 2:00 p.m. i kēlā me kēia lā o ka hoʻokēʻai.

E ʻoluʻolu e kelepona mai iā mākou no ka ʻike hou aku.

I Kepakemapa, 2016, Ua kākau ʻo Andrew Cockburn ma Harper's Magazine:
He mau makahiki pōkole wale nō i hala aku nei, ua hoʻoholo ʻia ʻo Yemen i waena o nā ʻāina ʻilihune loa o ka honua, ka helu 154th mai nā aupuni 187 ma ka UN's Human Development Index. Hoʻokahi o kēlā me kēia ʻelima Yemen i pōloli. Aneane hoʻokahi o ʻekolu i nele i ka hana. I kēlā me kēia makahiki, make nā keiki 40,000 ma mua o ko lākou lā hānau ʻelima, a wānana ka poʻe loea e pau koke ka wai i ka ʻāina.
ʻO ia ke kūlana weliweli o ka ʻāina imua o Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo Saudi Arabia i kahi hoʻouka kaua i ka lā Malaki 2015, ka mea i hoʻopau i nā hale kūʻai, nā hale hana, nā mea kanu mana, nā awa, nā halemai, nā pahu wai, nā keʻena kinoea, a me nā alahaka, a me nā pahuhopu like ʻole mai nā kaʻa hoki a i nā pāʻina mare a i nā monument archaeological. He mau tausani kanaka kīwila—ʻaʻohe mea i ʻike i ka nui o —ua pepehi ʻia a ʻeha paha. Me ka pana ʻana, ua hoʻokau ka Saudis i kahi poloka, ʻoki i nā lako meaʻai, wahie, a me nā lāʻau lapaʻau. Hoʻokahi makahiki a me ka hapa i loko o ke kaua, ua haki nui ka ʻōnaehana olakino, a aia ka hapa nui o ka ʻāina i ka pōloli.
In Kekemapa, 2017, ua kākau ʻo Medea Benjamin: "ʻOiai ke ʻano hoʻopaʻapaʻa o ke aupuni Saudi, ʻaʻole i kākoʻo wale nā aupuni US i ka Saudis ma ke alo diplomatic, akā me ka pūʻali koa. Ma lalo o ka hoʻokele Obama, ua unuhi kēia i ke kūʻai ʻana i nā mea kaua nui o $ 115 biliona. ʻOiai e pōloli ana nā keiki Yemeni ma ka hapa nui o ka pana ʻana o Saudi, nā mea hana mea kaua US, ʻo ia hoʻi ʻo General Dynamics, Raytheon, a me Lockheed Martin, ke pepehi nei lākou i ke kūʻai.
Nā ʻatikala hou e pili ana i ka hoʻouka kaua ʻana o US a me Saudi iā Yemen:
"He kaua paʻakikī a lanakila ʻole ʻo Yemen. Pono ʻo Donald Trump e haʻalele iā ia. " ʻO Patrick Cockburn, Ke kūʻokoʻa
Make ma Al Ghayil. Iona Craig, The Intercept
"Hoʻomākaukau ka ʻaha kūkā no kahi hōʻike ʻē aʻe ma luna o ke kūʻai aku ʻana i nā mea kaua Saudi," ʻO Julian Pecquet, Al Monitor
Paipai mākou i kēia mau hana:
E aʻo i kou ʻohana a me kou mau hoaaloha e pili ana i ka piʻi ʻana o ka pilikia ma Yemen.
E hana i ka mea hiki iā ʻoe ma kou kaiāulu kūloko e kāhea aku i ka hoʻopau ʻana i ka blockade a me ka pana ʻana.
Kāhea i ka Misiona U.S. i ka UN 212 415 4062 a hōʻike i kou hopohopo
Kāhea i ka Misionari Saudi i ka UN 212 557 1525 a hōʻike i kou hopohopo
E kipa, kelepona a kākau i kāu mau ʻelele i koho ʻia e hōʻike i kou mau manaʻo a hoʻihoʻi i kā lākou pane i kou kaiāulu kūloko.
E kipa aku i ke kaiāulu kūloko a me nā ʻelele e pili ana i ka manaʻoʻiʻo e noi i kā lākou kākoʻo no ka hoʻopau ʻana i ka hoʻouka kaua ʻana o US a me Saudi ma Yemen, hāpai i ka poloka, a pale i ka wī.
E kākau i nā leka i ka mea hoʻoponopono e hoʻolaha ana i kou kaiāulu i ka pilikia kanaka a me nā kuleana o nā kamaʻāina US.
E hoʻonohonoho i nā hanana hoʻonaʻauao a me ka hoʻolaha ʻana ma nā kula kūloko, nā kula kaiaulu, nā kulanui, nā kikowaena kaiāulu, a me nā hale hoʻomana hilinaʻi.
E mālama i ka makaʻala a me ka hoʻokē ʻai ma kou kaiāulu.
hoailona Nā kulekele'ē aʻeka palapala noi ma MoveOn.
Aia ma lalo a i hoʻopili ʻia nā palapala ʻāina ʻelua. Hōʻike ka mua i nā uku ʻO ka maʻi maʻi maʻi nui ma Yemen, e like me ka UN Office for Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs. ʻO ka lua, mai Ka Harper o Magazine, hōʻike i ka nui o ka mana Houthi ma Yemen mai 2004 - 2016.
E ʻoluʻolu e haʻi mai iā mākou i nā hana āu e hoʻonohonoho ai mai ʻApelila 9th a 16th i hiki iā mākou ke hoʻolaha aku iā lākou.
No ka leka a me ka ʻike hou aku, e kelepona iā:
