Reuters. 15 March 2003. Yemenis rally for Iraq, chant "Death to
America."

SANAA -- Yemenis, some carrying pictures of Iraqi President Saddam
Hussein, took to the streets on Saturday to protest against any U.S.-led
war on Baghdad with chants of "Death to America."

The crowd, which brought traffic to a halt for three hours in the
capital Sanaa, carried placards which read: "America, Britain, Israel
are an axis of evil" and "Do not cede, Do not cede, No to the
Anglo-American war drums."

The official Yemeni news agency said that hundreds of thousands of
people took part in Sanaa.

Some also waved the yellow flag of Lebanon's Hizbollah guerrilla group
and chanted: "No to war, yes to peace" and "Death to America, Death to
Israel."

Yemenis in other major cities also joined anti-war rallies called by
political parties and backed by President Ali Abdullah Saleh on a day of
protests around the world against a possible war.

Sheikh Abdul-Majid al-Zindani, a cleric and leading member of the
Islamic opposition Islah party, called in a speech for training camps to
be set up to "prepare youths for jihad (holy war)" if war is launched on
Muslim Iraq.
