UNLISTED what if he is from Yemen ? Don’t forget all of the Arabian peninsula were our slaves. Don’t let this last century get to ur head. We know who u really are 😘
UNLISTED lol Yemen doesn’t have slavery it is just the saudis forcing them to tell lies about Yemen so they can continue the genocide against the Yemenis.
Wullop Khin I'm from yemen and we only found out about this from this documentary, it's only in very certain areas, and its secret, and the owners have connections to the government. The USA force is like the rest of the world to have only governments that they want. If you watch this video closely you would know that the people don't know anything about that.
This is one of the most amazing videos I've watched recently. What a wonderful journalist and human rights minister. I wish there was something I could do!
Of course, there's something we can all do. Let's start by standing against racism in all its form. Racism is the root of enslavement when some sees others as less than themselves.
It's so sad to see this man feeling so shameful in front of an Arab. He might have been freed, but he still suffers from a slave mentality and the presenter isnt that much better, he treats the freedman like a child.
Thank you for showing us useful investigative journalism. Keep it up!!! There are a lot of slave people still in the world, it’s 😞 sad. May GOD bring better days for all people under slavery and repression.
After the freed salves were delivered in 40:10; One of the brother said "We'll never be apart again." 41:38 The oldest brother said "the important thing is that we're together". 41:43 he requested "Can you take a photo so we can remember this moment?" Then he smiled. I saw the radiance of true happiness, hope, and freedom on his face. That is the "face of FREEDOM". My tears flowed as river. Thank God for these brave journalists have risked their lives to free these very unfortunate men, known as slaves.
Just wanted to verify for the non-Arabic speakers that the subtitles are actually solid and on-point. I’m actually actively looking for something to complain about (in terms of subtitles and translations) and after watching 20+ al jazerra videos I’m pleasantly surprised and happy to report that the subtitles and translations are accurate. My motivation is simply a result of watching videos with subtitles in other languages and wishing someone in the comments would remark about the subtitles in a video.
This work was done by those who risk their own lives to save many lives. The world has never ended slavery. There is need for a truly and end. Let us stop the denial. All human are born equal.
Jim Hope a newly born doesn't know any of that nonsense you just mentioned so therefore we're born equal my friend, one thing for sure though we're all going to be rotten someday.
Ten Slider I agree one hundred percent with you! Very good answer! The nature, really doesn't know anything about equality or inequality; only the human mind has the ability to label and judge this way. So, "smarter" or ''weak in the head" and so on, they are just labels that promote the division among people. Thereof starts out the whole suffering..
how is there slavery in Yemen when there is no work to be done? Literally, over half the population is unemployeed. And for those employeed they usually work for the govt or abroad in the West or other Gulf states. I lived in Yemen for two years. Racial disparity i see but slavery, well this video shcked the hell out of me
Al Jazeera World - Slavery in Yemen program is a good effort to highlight this issue. In third world poor countries this issue may exist in one form or the other due to poverty, illiteracy, etc. Children can be seen working in shops and hotels in market area, in some places. The harsh truth is that human life is very cheap and unprotected in some societies.
There is only one reason slavery is an embarrassment to the government and that is because the accept it and cover it up. If the government took a stance against slavery no one would look down on the government. Even if their only response was an official stance against it and slowing the legal process to by enforcing the law whenever an owner is exposed, that would cost minimal money and would still have people respecting the government on this issue but imagine the great press if they took a proactive roll in freeing slaves. They would win approval rates all over the world and internally
I dont want to blame religions. But if Islam couldnt solve slavery in 1500 years , how can you call it the ONE TRUE RELIGION? I m sorry but human beings have much to evolve, and Islam may not be the final answer.
but in islam slavery is a sin so if you have slaves your simply not a Muslim. And in Yemen it's not a Muslim problem it's a Yemeni problem there two very different things.
+Slimbruslim Trio Bullshit. Slaves still exist in Saudi arabia, Malaysia, Yemen, Indonesia and all over the Arab world. and Muslims claim 1.4 billion people to be muslim. but when faced with such embarrassment immediately the 1.4 billion are no longer muslim. Islam promotes slavery. Propphet Muhammad had slaves. So it is Islam to have Slavery.
+Freddie Mukendi that's the bulls hit and ignorant first off read the Quran the prophet help slaves. and freed them if you read the Quran you would know that. also wasn't there slavery in every single western country because if you say no you you sound dumb also is there slaves in somalia,turkey,Djibouti and by the way Indonesia don't have slaves maybe child labor but every other Asian country has it to so it's not a Muslim thing furthermore in the bible it say it bad to have slaves but they did nothing to help slaves unlike Islam where on of the most important person in the Quran was a black slave that got freed because of the prophet Mohammed l.
I know God will bless me one of these days with loads of money, I'll come looking for this guy, so as we can rescue the remaining slaves in truckloads..... I can't believe this is happening.... God help us all...
Is not matter how many slaves have Yemen, most important is only one thing, why government allowed people keep the slaves??? I saw in real the slaves in Yemen, they are a lot!! g Hey do not have any rights, even animals have more rights than them!
I totally agree with what you said , the government should criminalize the practice of slavery . I felt so sad after watching this documentary, I want to do a research on modern slavery , ( like prostitution , child labor , debt bondage and ...) . I asked you if you are Yemeni because you look different .
+Renata N-A Arabs take pride in racism it's not shameful thing for them it's actually a compliment for them. In Arabic culture it's acceptable and to be openly racist of course not when it's directed at them. And of course I'm speaking from experience and I'm not saying either there aren't decent people among Arabs but their most indecent ones among them are the loudest.
Yes this is Yemen, one of the most religious Arab country. The impunity that runs through this place is beyond measure. "The most peaceful people' lies lies lies !!!! Good work to the journalists.
+striving MuSliMaH We all go through a period in youth where we need to 'lose faith' in humanity---that is after all, why we have religions, because these bad places are where we naturally go (at least in our corrupting times) when we don't *truly* follow good guidance to be balanced and compassionate in the deepest sense--striving, as you name yourself. It is disheartening to see people being callous to one another. Our faith has to be in the possibility to reach the mercy and benevolence to work with them and do what we can to see good conditions for the people around us (and ourselves). Sometimes we have to face and challenge common wrong religious interpretations to do so.
+Freddie Mukendi 1500 years ago every race, religion had slaves. heck 150 years ago almost everyone in america had slaves. He atleast treated them like half humans. was it right no. but we can't blame people for having slaves. saying if x did it then I can. religion doesn't mean anything for slaves
+Freddie Mukendi Ephesians 6:5-8 KJV servants are slaves btw in the colonization of usa most Southerners were Christians and had black slaves Slavery was the bedrock of the Roman and world economy. Some estimate that the slave population in the 1st century constituted approximately one third of the total population. An estimated one million slaves were owned by the richest five per cent of Roman citizens. Romans in the 1st century were Catholics. but it doesn't matter forgive injuries and remember kindness. we all have good and bad ancestors
It's crazy that in this day and age, people can still be owed as property! It's unacceptable. God bless you for freeing those brothers. Those human rights guys are truly doing God's work. So moving....😥
Not only Yemen, also Mauritania...it is Islam that has caused all this slavery mess,if god is really all merciful,I doubt it the fact that he saw nothing with inhumane practice like slavery and child marriage
Sadly there is not much difference between this and the way most governments around the world treat their citizens. Slavery will always be present in this world.

That is why they want Aljazeera to close! Schukrani.
It's the saddest documentary I've ever seen but opened my eyes. I hope the Eu and the rest of the world is watching cos this must end!How can someone own another human being?
why cant everyone just be happy that there was some happiness out,of this story? no matter how bitter it may be, accusing and blaming each other wont do anything about it and throwing around the blame is useless, so stop. i dont usually cry but i did in these forty minutes. first because i was saddened and it weighed so heavily,on my heart i practically sobbed for 10 minutes. in all my life, i have never as grateful as i do now. to be born free. how lightly we take the most valuble thing some of us are only fortunate to have or might never have in their. my heart went out to the people living those kind of lives and i think it changed my perspective of the world. i however think it should be something that brings us together, the compassion we felt should be what we share with each other. not blame. lets spread love around for once and be happy that three men are right now very happily enjoying a freedom that had been elusive to them and mere good fortune for the most of the world.
Ceyni Cade they do not live in refugee camps, they are not UN registered or get anything from the U.N. they are Yemenis that moved from war with their own money and belongings.
I swear by God Almighty that tears fall from my eyes when he asked him about his sister who came to be enslaved when someone else oh, oh my patriot, your oppressors, the tyrants, the evil criminals, the understanding of their hearts with an atom of faith and mercy ١٣. ٣٤😢😢
There are actually many more countries in the modern world where slavery still exists to some degree: Mauritania, the Congo, North Korea, Saudi Arabia, *COUGH COUGH QATAR*, Afghanistan, Pakistan....
This was in the prophet Muhammad's (pbuh) final sermon: "All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over black nor a black has any superiority over white except by piety and good action. Learn that every Muslim is a brother to every Muslim and that the Muslims constitute one brotherhood. Nothing shall be legitimate to a Muslim which belongs to a fellow Muslim unless it was given freely and willingly. Do not, therefore, do injustice to yourselves." What these Yemenis are doing is not part of Islam and is strictly forbidden. Sad that things like this still happen today...
its not the kind of slavery evryone thinks of..its a poverty circumstances of family debts..i also did an investigation when i wad thier..yemeni folks are the most generous and kind prople in the world..its outsiders like Iranians and others who go thier with money and cause chaos.
Arabs easiest pickings are Gypsies then again so are many others usually second being Africans, then South Asians, then South East Asians, and all the rest next
This is such a travesty of justice to people who really have very little social advocacy to depend on for freedom and respite from their situation. Just sad!!!
YUP, SOUNS LIKE ISLAM. MOHOMMED WAS SUCH A GREAT AND WONDERFUL MAN. WHAT A PERFECT PERSON TO FOLLOW. HIS EXAMPLE IS SOOO MUCH MORE HUMANE THAN JESUSs EXAMPLE.
In the Quran : 090:008-13 "Have We not made for him two eyes? and a tongue and two lips? and shown him the two ways / paths? BUT HE HAS NOT ATTEMPTED THE STEEP PATH - THE ASCENT. And what can make you know what the steep path / ascent is? (It is) FREEING A SLAVE" 002:177 It is not righteousness that you turn your faces towards the East or the West but righteousness (is he) who believes in God and the Last Day, and the Angels and the Book and the Prophets and gives wealth despite of his love for it to those of near relatives and the orphans and the needy and of the wayfarer and those who ask and in FREEING THE SLAVES and who establish the prayer and give zakah and those who fulfill their covenant when they make it and those who are patient in suffering and hardship and time of stress. Those are the ones who are true and those are the righteous.” >>> What more needs to be said in light of the above explicit verse ?
Very emotional documentry thank you, so sad to see our Muslim ummah embarrassing themselves. Inshalah in the here after everything with be just and perfect
Lets Pray for these humans. Pray in what ever faith you have. Heavenly Father, send your army of Angels to destroy any weapons these evil humans have. Send your healing light into the hearts of the ones who are suffering and need your comfort and shelter more then ever. Send your messengers on earth and peackeepers and guide and protect them to feed and provide water and medicine for all who are need. Protect these people who are harming their own brothers and sisters. Please Lord have mercy and grace and stop the suffering these people have endured. We praise you and glorify you. AMEN.
There are people of many backgrounds who live and work in Yemen. These isolated slavery conditions are not condoned by the vast majority of Yemeni people. This is akin to Kidnapping and holding by fear people in remote villages of Yemen. --- Absolutely disgusting and shocking that anyone can call himself a Muslim and own slaves. Read more about your faith, it says to set slaves free, that is one of the highest achievements one can get!
It's very rude of the interviewer to suggest that those children were slaves when most slaves in yemen are indeed of Arab descent because that's what the majority of the population are.
The current war in Yemen is a complex conflict with more than one aspect.. The most important aspect is the identity conflict that is between the Houthis, who consider themselves as a supreme race and think that they should control Yemen as a monarchy. And between the rest of the Yemeni people that believe in democracy as the republic of Yemen... This conflict has been in Yemen for more than 1200 years when the Houthis' great great great great great great grandfather came to Yemen from Mecca to establish a new monarchy for himself and his family.. this hidden war frequently comes every couple of decades... Please read the Yemeni history.. Unfortunately, Houthis have the same mentality of Hitler and Nazis, and the same mentality of the KKK extreme group in America... They think that they are a supreme race of human beings, they don't address themselves as Yemenis they call themselves Hashemites.. They don't believe in human rights nor freedom of speech.. This conflict in Yemen has been more than 1200 years.. since that time they came to rule Yemeni people by force. If you read the Yemeni history you will find there is a similar war every 30-50 years between this group and Yemenis.. This is the dark side of the Houthi that he doesn't want any other country to know.. What do you think, what is the solution? How can we deal with this racist group? As you know, the situation in Yemen has been always misunderstood by other countries.. I know that a lot consider what I mentioned above a taboo topic, but this is the reality..if we want sustainable peace we must resolve all these historical issues.. I always wonder why when Houthi is in his weakest point the West force everybody to stop fighting.... Houthis are similar to Nazis... UK and USA fought Nazis back in WW2... If they used this same approach in WW2, they would have been still fighting Hitler until now 😂😂... Why the Brits didn't coexist with the Nazis?? It is a theoretical question of course because we all know what Hitler did to Europe.. Thus, a normal human being can't coexist with a Nazis (Houthis) mentality... You can't make peace with someone who thinks that he's a supreme human being supported with a theocratic background, unless he changes his way of thinking and believes that all human beings have the right to live equally...
LET THEM CONTINUE FIGHTING. NO FEELING FOR THEM IN THAT WAR AS LONG AS THEIR SOCIETY DISCRIMINATES AGAINST BLACKS. I FEEL BAD FOR THE BLACKS CAUGHT IN THE CROSS FIRE IN YEMEN
May Allah bless the brother who is saving the brothers and sisters from those monsters who used to be in our prophets time thats what our prophet and his companions did freed slaves may Allah help u and al jazeera Ameen 🌹🌹🌹
There are treaties against slavery, so there are probably laws against it in many countries. When a slave owner leaves Yemen he may be breaking those laws. If so the slave owner can be arrested when he enters a white country (Europe + USA) and possibly a black country. This program showed journalists revealing the problem. Lawyers can play their part by making a database of the anti-slavery laws in both white and black countries, plus specimen chargers. Such lists will make it much easier for the police to enforce the laws. This is not the 19th century, the lawyers do not have to be white. Even if we are not allowed to charge a person for committing an on going crime in another country we can get our government to ban a known slave owner from entering our country.
very sad. hope one day. the african union will send max troops to this arabs nations to free all the so call slave. that day. this so call slaves masters will know what its like to be opress
I am here thinking, lets examine the imams of Makka and Madina their homes. You will definitely find slaves. I will discourage to do, because of the danger, if you fail their claws. It's just normal countries Yemen, Saudi arabia, Kuwait, U.A.E, Qatar, Oman etc to have slaves. It is a part of their culture credit. I'm not surprised this image.
+Saud Al Asad, I think it's time that the world examines the main mosque. why do you deny the truth. Do you think that's a secret that the Imams have their homes slaves.
+eric bantona Somalia !, there are no slaves, also there were no slave trade. I think you should look at the history of Somalia. Unfortunately, Sudan and Muritania are the countries that are known still to be found slaves
+Saud Al Asad, Have you done research or not? Go to the homes of imams and Mecca Mediana and come back if you do not find slaves. What evidence do you need ?. I have already given instructions where to look. Unfortunately, the lying is a habit of arabs and jews
Slavery is supposed to be illegal but it is wide spread, for years a lot of people unknowingly habe been slaved, USA has slaved Chinese people to work for them for such a low wage and they treat foreigners as slaves to work for them for cheap, look at amazon and all these big companies. People have been treated low for such a small money.
funny how this coincides with the Yemeni civil war, as if to give yemenis a bad reputation on purpose !! Remember that its neighbour Saudi Arabia was the last country on earth to abolish slavery !
Good work, Al Jazeera. Now show guts and expose the slavery of migrant workers in Qatar.

why cant everyone just be happy that there was some happiness out,of this story? no matter how bitter it may be, accusing and blaming each other wont do anything about it and throwing around the blame is useless, so stop.
i dont usually cry but i did in these forty minutes. first because i was saddened and it weighed so heavily,on my heart i practically sobbed for 10 minutes. in all my life, i have never as grateful as i do now. to be born free. how lightly we take the most valuble thing some of us are only fortunate to have or might never have in their. my heart went out to the people living those kind of lives and i think it changed my perspective of the world. i however think it should be something that brings us together, the compassion we felt should be what we share with each other. not blame. lets spread love around for once and be happy that three men are right now very happily enjoying a freedom that had been elusive to them and mere good fortune for the most of the world.
their life*
Wondering why we Indians don't have a channel like Alzeera
Could investigate slavery in India as well, 10 to 20 million slaves in India
Funny now the tables turned Yemen refugees now fled to Somalia 🇸🇴 to seek refuge 😭😭
Faiza Abdi they should turn them away
LadyMsThing Green those refugees are Somalian. They just lived in Yemen for a long time. There arnt no real Yemeni refugees.
@@yamaniking9292 you are lying there arab yeminis in somalia and ethiopia
Ceyni Cade there are Yemenis everywhere. But they are not refugees. Go educate on what refugee means.
Ceyni Cade they do not live in refugee camps, they are not UN registered or get anything from the U.N. they are Yemenis that moved from war with their own money and belongings.
who's waching this in november 2017 while hoping the war in yemen has disintegrated most of the slave owners?
I swear by God Almighty that tears fall from my eyes when he asked him about his sister who came to be enslaved when someone else oh, oh my patriot, your oppressors, the tyrants, the evil criminals, the understanding of their hearts with an atom of faith and mercy ١٣. ٣٤😢😢
I'm a Muslim, I can tell you, Arabs of today are not the Arabs of 100 years ago, so much difference
You would think Black people have seen it all and learn from it and come together they never do that SMH
Because unlike you not all Africans have tv or radio etc to know what you know and all governments are corrupt even in your country
neymar Jr ?? Maybe where you are from. Hopefully Arabs and Africans will learn that slavery is wrong. The West knows.🇺🇸
Not the same people
and a doc about slavery in qatar when it comes out?
There are actually many more countries in the modern world where slavery still exists to some degree:
Mauritania, the Congo, North Korea, Saudi Arabia, *COUGH COUGH QATAR*, Afghanistan, Pakistan....
The Congo?
Saudi Arabia?
This was in the prophet Muhammad's (pbuh) final sermon: "All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over black nor a black has any superiority over white except by piety and good action. Learn that every Muslim is a brother to every Muslim and that the Muslims constitute one brotherhood. Nothing shall be legitimate to a Muslim which belongs to a fellow Muslim unless it was given freely and willingly. Do not, therefore, do injustice to yourselves." What these Yemenis are doing is not part of Islam and is strictly forbidden. Sad that things like this still happen today...
its not the kind of slavery evryone thinks of..its a poverty circumstances of family debts..i also did an investigation when i wad thier..yemeni folks are the most generous and kind prople in the world..its outsiders like Iranians and others who go thier with money and cause chaos.
Thank you 😊
This is so sad :(
Nice work....
Human are human. No matter who they are. The weak & the bad is in every society.
Arabs easiest pickings are Gypsies then again so are many others usually second being Africans, then South Asians, then South East Asians, and all the rest next
Now I know how my ancestors felt.
This is such a travesty of justice to people who really have very little social advocacy to depend on for freedom and respite from their situation. Just sad!!!
YUP, SOUNS LIKE ISLAM. MOHOMMED WAS SUCH A GREAT AND WONDERFUL MAN. WHAT A PERFECT PERSON TO FOLLOW. HIS EXAMPLE IS SOOO MUCH MORE HUMANE THAN JESUSs EXAMPLE.
Arbeie und silma,which on Silver, iam hriting,,arbeie Go hill fiuer
The brothers voice at the end sounds unusually high. These were savage acts, committed and condoned by savage people.
Humans enslaving another human...
This is sickening even to imagine.
Yemen rebels should win their rebellion and bring changes that will outlaw slavery.
if an outsider says anything, the yemeni's claim it's an insult to allah
In the Quran :
090:008-13
"Have We not made for him two eyes? and a tongue and two lips? and shown him the two ways / paths? BUT HE HAS NOT ATTEMPTED THE STEEP PATH - THE ASCENT. And what can make you know what the steep path / ascent is? (It is) FREEING A SLAVE"
002:177
It is not righteousness that you turn your faces towards the East or the West but righteousness (is he) who believes in God and the Last Day, and the Angels and the Book and the Prophets and gives wealth despite of his love for it to those of near relatives and the orphans and the needy and of the wayfarer and those who ask and in FREEING THE SLAVES and who establish the prayer and give zakah and those who fulfill their covenant when they make it and those who are patient in suffering and hardship and time of stress. Those are the ones who are true and those are the righteous.”
>>> What more needs to be said in light of the above explicit verse ?
Very emotional documentry thank you, so sad to see our Muslim ummah embarrassing themselves. Inshalah in the here after everything with be just and perfect
Lets Pray for these humans.
Pray in what ever faith you have.
Heavenly Father, send your army of Angels to destroy any weapons these evil humans have.
Send your healing light into the hearts of the ones who are suffering and need your comfort and shelter more then ever.
Send your messengers on earth and peackeepers and guide and protect them to feed and provide water and medicine for all who are need.
Protect these people who are harming their own brothers and sisters.
Please Lord have mercy and grace and stop the suffering these people have endured.
We praise you and glorify you.
AMEN.
There are people of many backgrounds who live and work in Yemen.
These isolated slavery conditions are not condoned by the vast majority of Yemeni people. This is akin to Kidnapping and holding by fear people in remote villages of Yemen.
--- Absolutely disgusting and shocking that anyone can call himself a Muslim and own slaves. Read more about your faith, it says to set slaves free, that is one of the highest achievements one can get!
It's very rude of the interviewer to suggest that those children were slaves when most slaves in yemen are indeed of Arab descent because that's what the majority of the population are.
Islam, such a wonderful religion.
And Christiany is a wonderful religion too when they had slaves too
@@اليمناصلالعربغصبنعليك Too bad I'm not Christian or any religion for that matter.
Cultured White Boy ok good for u
The current war in Yemen is a complex conflict with more than one aspect.. The most important aspect is the identity conflict that is between the Houthis, who consider themselves as a supreme race and think that they should control Yemen as a monarchy. And between the rest of the Yemeni people that believe in democracy as the republic of Yemen... This conflict has been in Yemen for more than 1200 years when the Houthis' great great great great great great grandfather came to Yemen from Mecca to establish a new monarchy for himself and his family.. this hidden war frequently comes every couple of decades... Please read the Yemeni history..
Unfortunately, Houthis have the same mentality of Hitler and Nazis, and the same mentality of the KKK extreme group in America... They think that they are a supreme race of human beings, they don't address themselves as Yemenis they call themselves Hashemites.. They don't believe in human rights nor freedom of speech..
This conflict in Yemen has been more than 1200 years.. since that time they came to rule Yemeni people by force. If you read the Yemeni history you will find there is a similar war every 30-50 years between this group and Yemenis..
This is the dark side of the Houthi that he doesn't want any other country to know..
What do you think, what is the solution? How can we deal with this racist group?
As you know, the situation in Yemen has been always misunderstood by other countries.. I know that a lot consider what I mentioned above a taboo topic, but this is the reality..if we want sustainable peace we must resolve all these historical issues.. I always wonder why when Houthi is in his weakest point the West force everybody to stop fighting.... Houthis are similar to Nazis... UK and USA fought Nazis back in WW2... If they used this same approach in WW2, they would have been still fighting Hitler until now 😂😂...
Why the Brits didn't coexist with the Nazis?? It is a theoretical question of course because we all know what Hitler did to Europe.. Thus, a normal human being can't coexist with a Nazis (Houthis) mentality... You can't make peace with someone who thinks that he's a supreme human being supported with a theocratic background, unless he changes his way of thinking and believes that all human beings have the right to live equally...
LET THEM CONTINUE FIGHTING. NO FEELING FOR THEM IN THAT WAR AS LONG AS THEIR SOCIETY DISCRIMINATES AGAINST BLACKS. I FEEL BAD FOR THE BLACKS CAUGHT IN THE CROSS FIRE IN YEMEN
They are not free until they leave that evil place....
May Allah bless the brother who is saving the brothers and sisters from those monsters who used to be in our prophets time thats what our prophet and his companions did freed slaves may Allah help u and al jazeera Ameen 🌹🌹🌹
The human rights minister said slavery is not illegal in Yemen.
I guess that slave owner is not a religious man. Very nasty indeed.
There are treaties against slavery, so there are probably laws against it in many countries. When a slave owner leaves Yemen he may be breaking those laws. If so the slave owner can be arrested when he enters a white country (Europe + USA) and possibly a black country.
This program showed journalists revealing the problem. Lawyers can play their part by making a database of the anti-slavery laws in both white and black countries, plus specimen chargers. Such lists will make it much easier for the police to enforce the laws. This is not the 19th century, the lawyers do not have to be white.
Even if we are not allowed to charge a person for committing an on going crime in another country we can get our government to ban a known slave owner from entering our country.
ytams1 This reminds me of a story by Vijay Napaul
They were continuing what muhammad(S.A.W) has put to an end 1400 years ago..Subxannalah !!
very sad. hope one day. the african union will send max troops to this arabs nations to free all the so call slave. that day. this so call slaves masters will know what its like to be opress
I am here thinking, lets examine the imams of Makka and Madina their homes. You will definitely find slaves. I will discourage to do, because of the danger, if you fail their claws. It's just normal countries Yemen, Saudi arabia, Kuwait, U.A.E, Qatar, Oman etc to have slaves. It is a part of their culture credit. I'm not surprised this image.
This is conjecture, where's your proof?
+Saud Al Asad, I think it's time that the world examines the main mosque. why do you deny the truth. Do you think that's a secret that the Imams have their homes slaves.
+Raadhaye M WHERES YOUR PROOF?
+eric bantona Somalia !, there are no slaves, also there were no slave trade. I think you should look at the history of Somalia. Unfortunately, Sudan and Muritania are the countries that are known still to be found slaves
+Saud Al Asad, Have you done research or not? Go to the homes of imams and Mecca Mediana and come back if you do not find slaves. What evidence do you need ?. I have already given instructions where to look. Unfortunately, the lying is a habit of arabs and jews
This is sickening
Slavery is supposed to be illegal but it is wide spread, for years a lot of people unknowingly habe been slaved, USA has slaved Chinese people to work for them for such a low wage and they treat foreigners as slaves to work for them for cheap, look at amazon and all these big companies. People have been treated low for such a small money.
Slavery is illegal throughout the world
Debt slavery is legal throughout the world...
May the anger of GOD be on the ones who do nothing to end slavery as the prophet did
funny how this coincides with the Yemeni civil war, as if to give yemenis a bad reputation on purpose !! Remember that its neighbour Saudi Arabia was the last country on earth to abolish slavery !
🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱
omg This broke my heart.
yemen!thre is no any human being.
