  after i had graduated high school in the early 1960s i decided to make a commitment to pioneer.

  for my mother even pioneering was not good enough.......... her first choice was bethel.

  pioneering in my home area.....boring.

  True story-There is an attractive Greek man in my town who owns a diner. He is handsome, older and a tab bit vain, so he makes sure to dye his hair and work out at the gym. He was impressed with all the tattoos on the young guys there and was leaning towards getting one...then he saw an old guy with a tattoo stretched out into a green blob and was horrified to think that if he got one, it would eventually turn into a blob as his skin got older. He started sporting fake tattoos with pride. He went to the gym with one of his fakes, and the arms rolled up on his shirt. Walking up to the guy who worked there, he said in his delightfully thick Greek accent, "How do you like my tattoo? It's fake." The attendant said, "We know, we talk about them all the time." When he told me that story we both laughed. Now he shows me his 'new' tattoos whenever I go to his restaurant.

  The article quoted says the Interior Ministry of Yemen called threats of Terroistist Plots targeting vital institutions and government buildings as one of the reasons they partnered with the USA on the drone strikes. Also in the northern part of Yemen the muslims are battling it out with each other for control...doesn't sound very democratic to me. I do not sanction drone strikes, but at the same time, the US isn't the only one involved here. Personally, it would be fine to me if the US pulled out of all middle eastern countries and let them kill each other in their fanatizism.

  We have enough problems control our own population from killing each other, we should mind our own store first and if there is something left, give it back to the local communities and citizens.

  Simon-Yes I do, in this instance, believe they want the help of the USA to prevent their government from being overthrown.

  AlphaMan-The governments of the UK and Canada have not asked for the USA for a JOINT mission to conduct warfare on their own people. So your arguement is moot. The Yemeni government cannot control the factions within its own borders, it is working to squelch insurrections and religious violence, muslim against muslim. Pakistan eagerly takes billions of dollars a year from the USA. It would be wonderful to stop drone strikes against innocent civilians and at the same time yank the dollars, taken out of millions of hardworking Americans paychecks, and let that country attempt to feed itself, fend off al-Quaida who has shown what they think of 1/2 of their population like shooting young schoolgirls in the head to shut them up and keep them uneducated, and deal with disasters like earthquakes on their own. Please don't call the USA, we have decided to keep our money home, our volunteers safe and ignore everyone else...The USA would be screamed at if they did that, there is simply no pleasing all the people, all of the time.

  This article indicates that this drone attack was a JOINT effort BETWEEN the Yemeni Government AND the USA. JOINT, as in sanctioned, by the government of the people in Yemen. Does this mean the Yemenis hate themselves?

  Maybe you should consult a non-witness lawyer to see if you can make a trust or addendum to supercede the current one.
