Has Saleh turned against the Houthis?
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Recent reports have claimed that a dispute erupted between ousted Yemeni president President-for-Life Ali Abdullah Saleh... Saleh initially took power as a strongman of North Yemen in 1977, when disco was in flower, but he didn't invite Donna Summer to the inauguration and Blondie couldn't make it... and the Houthis. This is good news and was also expected for a while now. Who will turn against the other first? This is the question when it comes to this "hybrid" alliance between a party ‐ that claims to be nationalist and fights against the governance of the Imamate and whose "legitimacy" is as a result of revolting against the governance of Hamid ed-Dine imams ‐ and a group that believes in the myths of the Imamate and the Zaidi Hashemi rule. What adds to these is the more dangerous and mythical Khomeini component of their practices. Posted by: Fred 2017-05-11 |
