#1  Technically the mines aren’t leftovers until there is lasting peace. I know that idea probably is confusing in Yemen. To illustrate: you aren’t eating Thanksgiving leftovers until they have been in the refrigerator. Doesn’t matter if you have moved from the dining room to was a game on television.
