Famine in Yemen

There is a massive famine going on right now in Yemen. Most of the infrastructure for clean water, housing, medical care, etc has been destroyed. The reason being that Saudi Arabia, with United States support, "intervened" in the Yemeni civil war after the Houthi movement ousted the former president following the Arab Spring. This resulted in a naval blockade and incessant bombing by Saudi Arabia and a coalition of eight other Sunni-majority states, and the lack of clean water, healthcare, housing, and famine followed shortly after. This is genocide. This is intentional. We hope to be able to branch out and create stickers to support this issue in the future and encourage you all to donate what you can!

This does not even account for half the funding the US gov has given to Saudi Arabia. The US government has been supplying arms to the Saudi coalition since the first attack on Yemen in 2015.
