Heroic Hadi's military might

Finally some good news from Yemen! After months and months of military struggles between al-Qaeda factions and Yemen's army it looked like President Hadi had lost his grip since taking control from long-time despot Saleh. 

It's good to see Hadi flexing his military muscle
Yesterday news reports came from Yemen that Hadi's radical reforms of Yemen's army have been met with widespread displays of support. By undertaking these reforms Hadi has dismantled army units loyal to former President Saleh. It is heartening to see the country's new president show some military might. By ousting former Saleh loyalists we can now hope that Hadi will get a stronger handle on the army which is vital if he is going to bring the country out of this prolonged period of upheaval. 

Hadi, this is a good start. Keep up the good work.
