I am not blind nor sheepish dear Mo.
So, as long as you keep your German shepherding up, you may be simply chasing your own tail.
You're barking up the wrong tree with your whimpering about the "next day" vs. "a few days" comment. I'd just read the story timeline and jumped (I don't skip) off your post -- nothing more. I generally like your colorful posts. Sometimes I'll jump off them, comment, ask a question, or call something out rather than pant, sniff your butt, or just follow.
I wasn't being ueber specific when I responded to your outrageous claims about immigration percentages and numbers. How the eff would I know that Mo considers people who have never migrated to a country to set up residence to be "immigrants"? For the rest of us bullheaded individuals who naturally use the specific universally-accepted definition of "immigrant", immigrants make up 14 - 15% of the U.S. population (not 98%).
And, I would still find it surprising if there are 70,000 dual Yemeni/American citizens + American foreign workers/students + American citizens on passport or visa for other reasons residing in Yemen. It would surprise me despite the historical canvas you've painted and despite the fact that you have it on very good source (having overheard your neighbor spit out that number in retort to another diplomat's remark at a restaurant meeting back in 2011 and all).
Now, if you think that makes me hard-headed, ignorant, or too mentally inept to grasp what you're putting out, tis no problem.........so long as you still find me adorable and cute. And, I will read every single word of every single comment you post should you continue trying to convince me that I should accept 70,000 as an unsurprising fact. Keep beating me over the head with that coveted bone -- maybe it'll eventually knock some sense into me!
Cheers, Mo.
