Emirates Secretly Sends Colombian Mercenaries to Fight in Yemen
By EMILY B. HAGER and MARK MAZZETTINOV. 25, 2015
The United Arab Emirates has secretly dispatched hundreds of Colombian mercenaries to Yemen to fight in that country’s raging conflict, adding a volatile new element in a complex proxy war that has drawn in the United States and Iran.
The arrival in Yemen of 450 Latin American troops — among them are also Panamanian, Salvadoran and Chilean soldiers — adds to the chaotic stew of government armies, armed tribes, terrorist networks and Yemeni militias currently at war in the country. Earlier this year, a coalition of countries led by Saudi Arabia, including the United States, began a military campaign in Yemen against Houthi rebels who have pushed the Yemeni government out of the capital, Sana.

I feel for the Houthies, who do not want to be under Saudi Control. So now the UEA has Latin American mercenaries to take care of them.
They had best keep those mercenaries over there in Yemen then, we should not allow them to return to Latin America, where they force Mexicans into the US and enter themselves.
This is what is happening in Syria, due to US, SA , Qatar involvement, and Israel of course.
