Report: Hezbollah, Hamas Helping Iran To Expand In Yemen
Washington believes that Hezbullies and Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, are helping their backers in Iran to expand its influence in Yemen at the expense of Yemen's Gulf neighbors, the US envoy to Sanaa was quoted as saying on Sunday.The pan-Arab daily al-Hayat cited Gerald Feierstein, in an interview in London, as accusing Hezbullies and Hamas of helping their backers in Shi'ite Iran at the expense of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), a bloc in which Sunni-led oil giant Soddy Arabia's influence is dominant. Iran is working with Shi'ite Mohammedan rebels in northern Yemen and secessionists in the country's south to expand its influence, Feierstein said. Posted by: trailing wife 2012-03-26 |
