20.80 O children of Israel! indeed We delivered you from your enemy, and We made a covenant with you on the blessed side of the mountain, and We sent to you the manna and the quails.
WHY CAN'T THE FALSE GOD OF ISLAM FEED HIS ISLAMIC TERRORIST WORSHIPERS LIKE HE FED THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL.
Middle East - When you can’t eat, nothing else matters.

Of all the Middle Eastern countries facing the current food crisis, Yemen is in the worst shape. A United Nation’s World Food Programme (WFP) report states that seven million of Yemen’s 21 million people are “acutely hungry, making Yemen the 11th most insecure food country in the world. “Hunger and malnutrition are widespread in the country and require urgent intervention,” the report relates.
