seems like we are doing a good job of re-colonizing already
Are you imperialist guys gonna want us to be a colony again, dittoburg?
well, Yemen is right next to Africa, across the gulf of Aden from Somalia (where all the pirates are). but it is definitely part of the Arabian penninsula, which of course is in Asia, and which was always physically attached to Africa at its northern edge (the Sinai Peninsula) until the French built the Suez canal and separated the two continents. Yemen is very interesting, the urban houses are architecturally ambitious. Very few Americans go there. I was there ten years ago, really loved it.
And he called it Yemen instead of Aden. I’ll have to talk to my fellow imperialist brits about this.
Maybe he was using Sarah Palin’s Atlas.

“….please tell Mr. B that Yemen is not in Africa.”
ACK! I can’t believe he did that…I’ll go make a comment now.
And can everybody please tell Mr. B that Yemen is not in Africa.
It’s really upseting me that he screwed that up. My peeps need some love and recognition.
