Fragmenten
van de geleide-bom die de schoolbus in Jemen raakte vorige week
donderdag, tonen aan dat deze bom van het type MK-82 is en
wordt geproduceerd in de VS……. Met die aanval werden minstens 50 kinderen vermoord……
De
hele smerige oorlog in Jemen, die tot een genocide heeft geleid op de
sjiitische bevolking van Jemen, is zonder meer aan de VS te danken, zonder
goedkeuring van de VS had Saoedi-Arabië het niet aangedurfd haar
terreur los te laten op Jemen…..
Daarnaast levert de VS, zoals je kon lezen, niet alleen munitie aan
de reli-fascistische terreurstaat Saoedi-Arabië, maar ook wapens en
militaire hardware, dus rollend, varend en vliegend oorlogstuig …..
Voorts helpt de VS S-A met de zeeblokkade van door Houthi’s beheerste
gebieden, doet het de regie over de bombardementen en tankt het
zelfs de bommenwerpers en straaljagers van de Saoedische
terreurcoalitie af in de lucht (zodat er ‘zo efficiënt mogelijk’ kan worden gebombardeerd….)…..
Lees
het volgende uitstekende artikel op Anti-Media van Tyler Durden, eerder geplaatst
op Zero Hedge, waarin hij dieper ingaat op de rol van de VS in de vuile oorlog tegen de sjiitische bevolking van Jemen. Durden wijst ook op de belachelijke toezegging
van VS Buitenlandse Zaken woordvoerder Nauert dat
Saoedi-Arabië de aanval op de schoolbus zal onderzoeken………. ha!
ha! ha! ha! Zoals je begrijpt zal de uitkomst van dat onderzoek S-A vrijspreken van
elke schuld, hooguit zal men nog proberen te stellen dat er
officieren van de Houthi’s in de bus hebben gezeten, of dat er ‘een
kleine vergissing’ is gemaakt…. Terwijl S-A na de aanval
pontificaal durfde te zeggen dat de aanval op de schoolbus een
vergelding was voor de dode die viel bij een ‘raket-aanval’ van de Houthi’s in Saoedi-Arabië………. Wat precies wil je na deze uitspraak nog onderzocht hebben…???
Guided
Bomb Fragments At Site Of Yemen Bus Airstrike Trace Back To Lockheed
Martin

(ZHE) — A
prominent Yemeni journalist who throughout the war has been
instrumental in getting images and information out of the country
ahead of Western journalists has photographed and examined fragments
from one of the exploded missiles found at the site of
the US-Saudi coalition airstrike on a school bus in
Yemen, which left as
many as 50 people dead and 63 injured —
the
vast majority of which were children.
The
image of the missile fragment, believed to be among those that scored
a direct hit on the bus full of children traveling
through Dahyan market in Saada province last Thursday, was
uploaded by Sanaa-based Hussain Albukhaiti and quickly spread online
over the weekend. It
appears to be a US-made MK-82 guided bomb produced by Lockheed
Martin.
Ben
Norton, an American journalist among the first to track down publicly
available government contract information showing the MK-82’s
likely origins, said
of the bomb fragment imagery: “Yemeni
journalists found this fragment of the bomb Saudi Arabia dropped on a
school bus full of children in Yemen. It’s
a US-made MK-82 guided bomb, which has been used in previous attacks
on Yemeni civilians. The cage code on the bomb is Lockheed Martin’s.“
Bomb
fragment said to have been photographed at the scene of Thursday’s
coalition strike on a school bus full of children.
The
MK-82 is a 500-pound air dropped guided bomb which US Air Force and
military publications previously
touted as“causing
the least amount of collateral damage” — US
defense contractors have over the past few years sold
the MK-82 to Saudi Arabia under contracts worth tens of millions of
dollars.
The CAGE
Code,
or Commercial and Government Entity Code, is a number
assigned to suppliers of various government or defense agencies which
provides a standardize method to track military items to a given
facility at a specific location. According to one defense
contracting consultation
site, The
Department of Defense’s Defense Logistics Agency, (DLA)
assigns the five-character ID and uses alpha numeric identifier is
assigned to entities located in the United States and its’
territories.
Ben
Norton says the
Cage Code on the fragment reportedly found at the site traces to
US government contractor Lockheed Martin.
The
code on the panel fragment in the photograph reads: 94271.
Ben
Norton further tracked down specific contracts through 2016 and 2017
showing that Lockheed Martin/General Dynamics is the key
supplier of the MK-82 500-pound bombs to the Saudi military (in
1997 General Dynamics acquired Lockheed’s Armament Systems and
Defense Systems productions divisions).
The
separate contracts are collectively worth over $60 million and were
approved by US Army Contracting Command.
“Where are my brothers?” pleads a Yemeni child who survived the US-Saudi coalition airstrike school bus massacre
“How was this a military target? Why are children being killed?” tweeted Meritxell Relano, UNICEF’s resident representative in Yemen aljazeera.com/news/2018/08/b…

In
2016 the Saudi coalition, of which both the US and Britain play a
lead role, used
the US-made MK 82 guided bombs to attack a funeral in Sanaa,
Yemen’s capital city, which killed over 140 and wounded at least
500 more.
At
that time The
Intercept identified
external bomb fragment markings found
in the debris to track it to the United States.

During
the State Department’s daily press briefing at the end of last
week, spokesperson Heather Nauert was asked
point blank by Associated Press reporter Matt Lee,
whether the US condemns the attack.
It
resulted in a drawn out testy exchange, but Matt Lee laid out
the case for direct US complicity in the attack on the bus packed
with children: “The
Saudis obviously are the ones who conducted this, but they do that
with weapons supplied by the U.S., with training supplied by the
U.S., and with targeting information, targeting data, supplied by the
U.S. How can something like this happen?” he
said.
Not
only did Nauert refuse to say the US condemned the attack,
but wouldn’t
so much as agree to simply call for an independent investigation into
the incident (she
called only for a Saudi-led inquiry) which killed
at least 29 children and has resulted in the United Nations
launching an
independent probe.
Evidence that a US-made bomb killed 30 kids on the Yemeni bus. Who will present this to US, Saudis and the UN?pri.org/stories/2018-0…
Previously
last week, just before the horrendous attack on the school bus,
Nauert had unambiguously
stated the
Saudi coalition’s ongoing airstrikes on Yemen are legitimate
and justified.
The
Saudis for their part called
the incident part of a “legitimate military
operation” soon
after it happened, ultimately blaming Shia Houthi rebels who control
the region.
In
April of 2016, Bruce Riedel, a 30-year CIA officer and senior fellow
at the Brookings Institute, told
a conference audience, “If
the United States and the United Kingdom, tonight, told King Salman
[of Saudi Arabia] ‘this war has to end,’ it would end tomorrow.
The Royal Saudi Air Force cannot operate without American and British
support.”

Bruce Riedel of the Brookings Institute: “if the United States of America and the United Kingdom tonight told King Salman that this war [on Yemen] has to end, it would end tomorrow because the Royal Saudi Air force cannot operate without American & British Support”.
Last
week’s coalition airstrike on the bus elicited rare bipartisan
outrage among a handful of congress members, including from Senator
Chris Murphy (D-Conn), who
said in a statement, “The
Saudi/UAE/U.S. bombing campaign is getting more reckless, killing
more civilians, and strengthening terrorists inside Yemen. We need to
end this – NOW.”
The
Pentagon has long tried to present its role in the conflict as
attempting to stave off humanitarian catastrophe in Yemen, yet
as even NPR* confirmed while reporting
from inside the country earlier
this year the US military “has provided
targeting information, equipment and aircraft refueling to the Saudi
air campaign,
which has been widely criticized for being indiscriminate and killing
civilians in places like hospitals, funerals and homes.”
