Today he started literally bombing rebels who have taken control of army barracks. Click on the link to watch the video:

This Saleh guy is such a clown. All the Gulf States and US and European intermediaries prepared a step-down agreement for him and the opposition signed it and then he made up a BS excuse about how they did not sign it in front of him as an excuse for him not to sign it. He said he would sign it, but then offered up that excuse as his reason not to.

Actually, this is starting to remind me of Libya with people starting to take action and seize military bases and parts of the city forcefully. There's also issues of secession in other parts of the country and Al Qaeda forces, which are reported to be stronger or as strong as AlQ in Pakistan.

It's just sad how selfish some people can be, slaughtering dozens of people with snipers and bombing them, just so he can have power and live in luxury.
