MIT Should Not Be Supporting the Saud Monarchy
Change cannot happen overnight, it is a gradual process. Saudi has improved: two major improvements - woman being allowed to drive and opening of the first cinema in 35 years ! I expect more changes to happen over time.<p>The situation in Yemen is bad. However it is not totally one-sided pain inflicted by Saudi Arabia as portrayed in the article. The Houthis are after all well armed  militants who were&#x2F;are trying to overthrow the Yemen government.<p>Some people at MIT have hardline stances which should not be mistaken to be the institute&#x27;s opinion or the majority opinion. A year ago there was a movement by some to have MIT divest from oil&#x2F;gas-related companies which failed.
