Unrest at Yemen University
2003-12-26
Three security guards have been wounded, one of them seriously, in clashes with armed students in the capital, where security was beefed near the university yesterday.
Wonder what course of study they're enrolled in?
Clashes broke out at the University of Sanaa on Wednesday when a group of lunatics students, mainly members of the opposition Al-Islah Islamic party, tried to force union elections to be held without referring to official organizing bodies or unions.
That confirms my hunch. "Look out! The theology department's at it again!"
Eyewitnesses told AFP that tough guys armed men had entered classrooms and started to shoot in the air and fire off teargas canisters. Three guards who tried to arrest the group were wounded, one seriously. Three members of the group were arrested and questioned by the security services.
Civil, well-reasoned discourse, Islamic style...
