| [ALMASDARNEWS] The 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... forces, backed by the Yemeni Republican Guard and Saleh Forces, managed to seize several Saudi military posts in the Asir Province of 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... on Thursday, Yemen-based al-Masirah News Agency reported. Following the capture of these Saudi military posts, the Houthi forces and their allies confiscated a large cache of U.S. and Canadian weapons that belonged to the Saudi-led Coalition. In addition to their advance in the Asir Province, the Houthi forces and their allies are quickly combing through the Saudi Army controlled Najran Valley, capturing several sites near the scenic provincial capital. |
