The youth revolutionary leader was Khaled al-Madani. Shehab Al-Sharabi was considered to be the main leader of the revolution. Majority of Revolutionaries were younger than 20, working class citizens, and Muslim. Both men and women participated.
President: Ali Abdullah Saleh resigned because of depression, un-employment, and a corrupt regime cause the people to protest. Vice President: Abdu Rabu Hadi called for a cease fire.
Both were unhappy with the government and wanted a change. Both had men and women contributing. Need of a new government (America- because they separated from its mother country, Britain. Yemen- because they overthrew their old government.
My personal beliefs are that the revolution in Yemen will succeed. Saleh will fall from power and the people of Semen will be free.
