BY: Medea Benjamin* and Nicolas J. S. Davies* PEJOURNAL - The February 25 U.S. bombing of Syria immediately puts the policies of the newly-formed Biden administration into sharp relief.

The Yemeni resistance and the defeat of Saudi ignorant policies

PEJOURNAL - Saudi Arabia's regional policy has been one of the main reasons for the escalation of tensions in West and Southwest Asia for at least the past decade.

The main goal of these policies, which from the beginning was based on the three pillars of "primitiveness", "ignorance" and "oil dollars", was to achieve the US gendarmerie position in…
