Large explosions rocked Yemen's capital Sana'a on Wednesday as members of the nation's most powerful tribal federation kept up their fight to oust President Ali Abdullah Saleh. At least 39 people are reported killed and dozens of others wounded in the past day.  As the situation worsens, some are looking beyond the current crisis to envision a post-Saleh Yemen. 

Government and tribal fighters are battling for control of key ministry buildings in the capital, while the home of Hashid tribal chief Sheikh Sadeq al-Ahmar continued to come under attack. 

Gunfire echoed across Sana'a as ambulances ferried the injured to hospitals.  Some residents continue to leave the city to seek relative safety in outlying villages, while those remaining are stockpiling basic supplies, including food and gasoline.

It seems, finally, the Yemeni's desire for Democracy would be betrayed by the GCC, USA and Al Quaida!
