Secret operation resettles Yemeni Jews in U.S., report says <<LINK>>​

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - About 60 Yemeni Jews have moved to the United States since July under a clandestine operation by State Department officials to escape anti-Jewish attacks in their homeland, the Wall Street Journal reported on Saturday.

"The operation followed a year of mounting harassment, and was plotted with Jewish relief groups while Washington was signaling alarm about Yemen," the Journal said.

The murder of a Jew last year, a Shi'ite revolt in northern Yemen and the growth of Sunni Islamist fervor have fueled their desire to leave the Arabian Peninsula country

One man describing his final months in Yemen spoke of rocks shattering the windows of his house and car, the paper said. Another bore scars from rocks that hit his head and said he had not left his house for two months.

Welcome.
Now that they are here. I expect nothing but God's blessings on them and the chance for them to come to Christ.
Oh, by the way, I expect the same for the legal immigrants of any other religion, race, or whatever.
