The Majority of America's Drone Attacks In Yemen Have Occurred Along The Old Cold War Division Of Yemen

The map of drone strikes in Yemen shows that most of the U.S. killings of Yemenis have occurred in South Yemen. South Yemen was aligned with the Soviet Union during the Cold War. Yemen has a history of resisting U.S. imperialism. I believe that the contention that America and Russia are fighting a proxy war is bolstered by this information. 

Another interesting thing is that Russia/USSR had no coverage of Diego Garcia. This isolated base is a prime location for the American Military's secret space program.
