Shireen Al-Adeimi joins the show to discuss her article for In These Times, “What the Deployment of Green Berets to the Saudi-Yemen Border Tells Us About America’s Dirty War.” Al-Adeimi speculates on the role that the green berets and the U.S. army are playing in Southern Yemen and in the aerial bombing campaign. The two then discuss the possibility that the new revelation that there are American boots on the ground could bring the question of the War Powers Resolution back to the forefront in Congress.
