Interesting question. In fact, Yemen is going to be the first country to run out of oil in the Middle East [very soon, in fact] and has all but run out of water for its growing population. But look on a map - it makes a wonderful location for a strategic new base. And besides, killing Yemenies makes the usual people just as rich as killing anyone else. What made me sick was O-bomb-A's statement that we'd hunt down anyone who wanted to kill innocent women and children etc. Don't we do that everyday in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and even did the other day in Yemen BEFORE this happened?.......Part of being an Empire is to not care about people or logic or ethics - only money and power, money and power. And thanatose is the best way to get there for them [Jack's them].
