I posted this on another thread last night:

Just got back from Mass here in Abu Dhabi and the 4 Sisters of Mercy killed in Yemen were a part of the Vicariate here. Of course prayers were offered for them and the others killed in the community. When the priest make the announcement at the beginning of Mass that they had been killed he also included an interesting remark:

“The attack was precise and pre-meditated”

Prayers up. I hope to attend the memorial Mass on Wednesday night.

I’d rather the worthless USA government queue up some drones to wipe out the filth that did this.

Yemen defies control by ANYONE.

Yemen is described by Wikipedia as a KLEPTARCHY.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kleptocracy
Kleptocracy, alternatively cleptocracy or kleptarchy, (from Greek: κλέπτης - kleptēs, "thief" and κράτος - kratos, "power, rule", hence "rule by thieves" and is a term applied to a government seen as having a particularly severe and systemic problem with officials or a ruling class (collectively, kleptocrats) taking advantage of corruption to extend their personal wealth and political power.
Typically this system involves the embezzlement of state funds at the expense of the wider population, sometimes without even the pretense of honest service.

I'd say they were right on the money. They don't seem to be changing for the better is any direction.
