Thousands of Protesters Take to Streets in Hadramout
2011-02-24
[Yemen Post] About 5,000 anti-government protesters gathered in eastern Yemen calling for the ouster of President President-for-Life Ali Abdullah Saleh's
... they'll take the power from his cold, dead hands...
regime.

Demonstrators marched on Tuesday in the eastern town of Al-Shiher, chanting "Down, down with Saleh."
... which is Arabic for "Hey hey ho ho, Ali Abdullah's gotta go!"
President-for-Life Saleh's
... ineptitude in an expensive suite...
regime has seen widespread protests for the past three weeks, however, he said he will not step down before the end of his term in 2013.

He promised that security forces will not fire on protesters.
... and if you can't believe a bloody-handed dictator who can you believe?
Medical officials have said 11 people have been killed in protests this month.
... but not from security forces firing on them or anything. It was just bad luck on their part: poorly designed footwear, or lack of attention when crossing the streets...
Darling, have you tried walking in those curly-toed slippers? The wonder is they all aren't dead in the street, lined up like ninepins.
