    The defection of Major General Ali Mohsen al-Ahmar is hugely significant as he controls an estimated 60% of the army. His decision to support the anti-government protesters is expected to lead to most of the armed forces going over to the opposition by nightfall.

    Ali Mohsen is basically considered the most powerful person in the military in Yemen and he has pledged his support for the protesters in Yemen. He said he was sending his soldiers to protect the protesters who have gathered outside the university. It's hugely significant because he's effectively opened the floodgates to a string of resignations from military officers to members of parliament and ambassadors.

    Of all places I'm most interested to see what happens in Yemen after Ali Abdullah Saleh. Yemeni's don't exactly seem to be the most educated bunch :p

    Lindsay Williams is an annoying douche. He's been right about some things he supposedly heard from his "elite" contacts in the oil world, but he's been wrong about others. I really dislike how he always milks his on-air time, plus I can't really trust a religious guy trying to speak prophecy.

    The whole Khaleege suggested solution is a joke. They're giving him the time and authority he needs to get all what he's been destroying the country for. Ridiculous but the again what did you expect from those so called leaders who are just as thieves and corrupt as this clown is.
