Tawakkol Karman at Brookings Doha








_______________________

  Been there - saw the  Nobel Peace Laureate  activist speaking with great enthusiasm  about her country . Love of freedom  , the man made tragedy .After the speech  came the interview . I loved how the AJ English reporter  asked embarrassing questions as well . Criticizing  a Nobel Peace Laureate  ! That is the real journalism .  Most of the speech was in Arabic . Most of the people needed the  headphones and device for the simultaneous interpretation .
   
 . There were a lots of Americans  -  I had the impression . Tawakkol Karman  hopes that the war will end within short time . Others were not so optimistic . Many thinks that the US media concern about the Yemen war is just a show before the elections .
Let's hope   they are wrong .
