Cheney’s Dream of Middle East Peace Not Yet Fully Realized

Filed in National by on April 1, 2015

The Saudi-led military intervention in Yemen threatens to turn what has been a civil war between competing branches of Islam into a wider regional struggle involving Iran. It could also destroy any hope of stability in Yemen.
