I've never been to Yemen but somehow am in love with it (and so wish I could visit).This film started my obsession: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0478213/
So sad and inexcusable what is happening there right now - everyone playing for their own shallow political interests, doing enormous harm and grossly disregarding international law while pretending to help.
As others mentioned, all mainstream media reporting of the current events in Yemen is horribly biased, misleading and just ignorant. Twitter is a much better place to get a more objective feel of events as they unfold. My favourite source is @omeisy
