Did Obama’s drone war help Yemen’s government collapse?
Ironic that the drone war weakened one of our strongest allies in the region. Bottom line is we step into a sectarian war and can't help but seen as taking sides.
But what if the drones themselves are part of the problem? It’s not unreasonable to ask whether U.S. attacks in the past six years, and particularly the civilian casualties they have caused, helped to hasten the Yemeni government’s fall, contributing to the headache now confronting U.S. counterterrorism efforts.
