Yemen and Afghanistan a Forgotten part of the World!

Any one seeing the news a few nights ago would have seen Lyce Doucet and Jeremy Bowan talking about Yemen. One is aware that this has been hardly been mentioned by the people that are news reporting.

Meanwhile Josh Lederman writes yesterday that Donald Trump has done an U Turn on Afghanistan, but this is an area which is tribal based, and is not easily ruled. In fact the Russians have failed as have the US, and I saw in Phoenix last night Donald Trump was speaking about the fact there was misreprsentation in the printing of this article.

Donald Trump faces many of the same challenges that have faced previous presidents. Now The Taliban is resurgent and the Afghan forces are too weak without US help. The nation is Tribal led and this could be the reason that the Russians and US was not able to overcome the area.
He said at the weekend with the Afghan government and others, that he laves the door open for an eventual peace deal with the Taliban. Some day it will be possible to have a peace settlement that includes the elements of the Taliban.
