Exit stage left!

[sorce code msnbc.com]

The President of Yemen Ali Abdullah Saleh is stepping down from position in 30 days. This will be done in exchange for immunity. The people of Yemen have been using tactical but peaceful methods in order to pressure the ruler who has been in power for 32 years. Saleh is accused of widespread corruption and using lethal force to shut down opposition. The President is basically using all his hidden cards in order to see if the people will waiver. This story can take so many last minute turns so I will be monitoring to see how successful Yemen’s people are.
What do you think about the way this country is handling their political issues?
