Saudi Arabia and the UAE are leading a military coalition that is laying siege to Yemen. And as both countries continue to wage war there, humanitarian assistance for Yemen has come to a standstill, even though this is the nation's most dire time of need. #YemenCantWait [THREAD]

"The president has made peace more elusive. He used 5/8 vetoes to protect a #Saudi-led intervention in #Yemen, weapons sales to the kingdom and its allies, and his own power to wage war with #Iran, @HassanElTayyab of @FCNL noted." @HuffPost @AkbarSAhmed huffpost.com/entry/donald-tr…

Before you get all teary eyed about @realDonaldTrump being the #endendlesswars candidate, STOP! 5/8 of his vetoes so far have been #bipartisan bills to end #US support for war in #Yemen, block #Saudi & #UAE weapons sales, and prevent war with #Iran. What else do you need to know?

Innocent civilians, not governments, are the main victims of economic #sanctions. Broad based economic sanctions are said to be a more humane option to achieve Foreign Policy objectives than #war. But the reality is that sanctions kill innocent people everyday! #SanctionsKill

"[H]ealth, sanitation and nutrition services that keep millions from starvation and disease are gradually closing amid an acute funding shortage for the world’s largest humanitarian crisis." Congress must restore @USAID funding to Yemen! #YemenCantWait uk.reuters.com/article/uk-ye…

This is powerful. Let's all be like Ahmed al-Babati and work this hard to end our collective complicity in the #Saudi-led war on #Yemen. Ahmed blows a whistle every 10 minutes to represent how often a Yemeni child dies and let his govt know #YemenCantWait! theguardian.com/uk-news/2020…

Another embarrassment for the US post pulling out of the #IranDeal. Insisting on #snapback sanctions on #Iran further erodes US credibility and shows Trump has no interest in slowing Iran's nuclear program. We need actual diplomacy, not war and sanctions. theguardian.com/world/2020/a…

Today @banminesusa asked why @DeptofDefense won't answer Congressional questions on new US #landmine policy x.com/banminesusa/status/129… Today 2 civilians died a child wounded when a landmine exploded in #Idlib farmland sn4hr.org/sites/news/2020/08…
It's time for the US to forswear landmines and join the global consensus for a #minefreeworld. @SenatorLeahy @RepMcGovern 105 members of Congress have pressed @EsperDoD @DeptofDefense to explain new policy, without answer for 100 days and counting… leahy.senate.gov/press/leahy…

From Switzerland to South Korea, democracies around the world have urged mail-in voting during #COVID19. The President's hostile actions against mail-in voting poses a threat to peace here at home as well as to our peacebuilding advocacy around the globe washingtonpost.com/world/202…
