 Despite what we think - Yemen deserves - opinion - Yemen Times
I don’t find more exciting than the description of President Abdullah Al-Sallal (1917-1994) – the leader of 26 September revolution and the president of Yemen (from 1962 to 1967) – in his short biography, which was mainly concentrated on some incidents in the period before the revolution.
In that concept my friend Abdullah A. sent me an email discussing his idea which was shown in his article “Not quite the time to go home” and which included a kind of discussion to some bad aspects in Yemen.
