If you don't read Jane, you are missing out. And if you can read Jane, you probably aren't in Yemen.
As she notes about her blog:
In the last three years, the Yemeni government tried to bribe me, planted insulting and crazy stories in the yellow press, said I was a terrorist and suggested a foreign government arrest me, blocked my website, unblocked it and reblocked it, called me a Zionist, an opposition stooge, CIA, an Iranian agent and a woman of ill repute, and now…(drumroll please), produced an entirely fraudulent document as evidence in a court case:You want to talk about "truth to power?"
The prosecution showed al-Khaiwani an English letter translated into Arabic from a woman called “Jean,” which informed him that “al-Houthi told you that they were going to America for two weeks. They told you that [al-Houthi] would speak with congress and discuss the results with you.”
All I need is a death threat and I’ll be a real Yemeni.
