| 2015-04-14 |
| [AA.TR] A Saudi-led coalition on Monday accused Yemen's Shiite Houthi ...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth. Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The Yemeni government has accused the Houthis of having ties to the Iranian government, which wouldn't suprise most of us. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to America™, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews... group of storing arms in schools and hospitals. "We have information that arms and equipment stored under schools, hotels and houses are equal in amount to those already destroyed," coalition front man Ahmed al-Asir ...Leb Salafist holy man with the usual grouch against Shiites. Currently on the run, he seems intent on reigniting the Leb civil war... i said at a daily press briefing in Saudi capital Riyadh. He said coalition warplanes had targeted playgrounds in the southern city of Aden and the western city of Ibb because a large amount of arms was stored inside them. Al-Asiri said the Saudi-led Arab coalition forces were keen on protecting Yemen's infrastructure and preventing the Houthis from exploiting the country's infrastructure. Since March 25, Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... and its Arab allies have been pounding Houthi positions across Yemen. Riyadh says its anti-Houthi campaign comes in response to appeals by embattled Yemeni President Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi to "save the [Yemeni] people from the Houthi militias." The Houthis, for their part, denounce the offensive as an unwarranted "Saudi-American onslaught" on Yemen. |
