| 2014-09-26 |
| [Ynet] Yemen has freed two suspected members of Leb's Hezbollah movement held for questioning about alleged ties to a Shi'ite Moslem turban group that has seized control of much of the capital Sanaa, a bigwig said on Thursday. The takeover by the Shi'ite 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 Americaâtm¢, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews... rebels came hours before a power-sharing accord was signed with other political parties providing for the creation of a viable new government. That effectively made the Houthis the main power brokers in Yemen, whose political, tribal and sectarian turmoil poses risks to No. 1 oil exporter 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... next door. The bigwig said the authorities also expected to free at least three suspected members of Iran's Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) with links to the Houthis, as well as nine Yemenis jugged Don't shoot, coppers! I'm comin' out! for involvement in the smuggling of arms aboard an Iranian ship intercepted off the coast in January 2013. |
