It seems that in the world the “misguided of jihād” like to concentrate their forces in certain territories, where they take root, grow, and multiply, tormenting the local and other populations generation after generation.
From this point of view, with a certain amount of certainty we dare to say that Yemen, in recent times, has succeeded in outdoing even Pakistan, the country suffering from “misguidance” par excellence. Yemen’s jump to the top of the ranking is due to the nefarious role played by the terrorist militia of the so-called Houthis, which has added itself to the other terrible disaster represented by the now ten-year presence of al-Qāʿida’s terrorist branch in the Arabian Peninsula.
The beautiful Yemen’s mosaic tells us about a great Islamic tradition. However, after the reunification between North Yemen and South Yemen, al-Qāʿida’s fitna led by Anwar al-ʿAwlaqī ignited a new phase of instability, disrupting the already fragile internal balance.
Regarding the figure of al-ʿAwlaqī, we are faced with a case of “mythomania”, triggered by personal events that are unflattering for an imam (adultery) and for any Muslim. In an attempt to escape from his own sins, he followed in the footsteps of Osāma bin Lāden as a terrorist, finding a safe haven in Yemen, his country of origin. Owing to his oratory skills, he took on the guise of a professional mass “misleader”, becoming the inspirator of terrorist attacks and jihadist militantism, and he remains so today after his death.
From the political and social chaos caused by the so-called “Arab Spring”, the barbaric and savage hordes of the al-Ḥūthiyyūn then emerged: nothing more than a family clan of Shiite criminals, currently led by the “youngest brother” Abdul-Malik Badruldeen (ʻAbd al-Malik Badr al-Dīn al-Ḥūthī). Thirsty for power and sowing injustice, they are at the service of the imperialistic and colonialist ambitions of Khomeinist Iran.
Benefiting from the support and weapons of the “tyrants” based in Tehran, the Houthis have dominated for over a decade as “kings” in the capital Sana’a and in the Yemeni areas where they have managed to impose a brutal dictatorship. A dictatorship made up of murders, arrests, and torture, kidnappings and forced displacements, bombings and massacres, as accurately reported on the social media channels of “Khadīja De Doa” (X, Facebook, Instagram), whose great “efforts” compensate for the lack of information on the subject. This is a real calamity that continues to hit relentlessly the many Yemenis who do not intend to surrender to the violence and persecution perpetrated against them by the Houthis on a daily basis, remaining submitted only to Allāh swt.
Much criticism and curses were addressed to Saudi Arabia for having tried to counter the advance of the Iran-backed terrorist militia. The military operations caused numerous victims among non-combatant civilians, while an unprecedented famine was raging in the country, affecting children first and foremost. On the other hand, perhaps today, as the truce is underway, the inevitability of the Saudi operation appears more clearly on the scene, which, despite its imperfection, managed to halt the advance of the Houthis in the remaining areas of “free” Yemen. And it should be noted that the Houthis have instead achieved a form of coexistence with al-Qāʿida’s terrorists in the areas under their rule, in line with the collaborative relationship that has always existed between the Khomeinist regime in Iran and the organization of Osāma bin Lāden and al-ʿAwlaqī.
To support financially their “anti-Islamic state of terror”, very similar to the one established by ISIS in the Shām, the Houthis are literally stripping Yemen of any residual resources: from the trafficking in the black market of gas, oil, and artworks stolen from numerous museums, to expropriations, extortion, the theft of humanitarian aid, and the super-taxation with which they starve the population.
Yes, but the Houthis are fighting the Western imperialism and colonialism of the “Zionists” and “Crusaders” combined, and are “doing their part” to support the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, even more than the Lebanese Ḥezbollāh. This is what the narratives and slogans of the university “pseudo-intifadas” are positing, even passing off the Houthis as “heroes” of the alleged “resistance”, without taking in any account the serious crimes committed against the Yemenis.
This is the perverse effect triggered by ideological fervor, which causes the mind to automatically discard everything that conflicts with and denies the ideology itself. Woe, therefore, even to just mention the possibility that the Houthis are exploiting the immense tragedy in Gaza only to advance their own expansionist agenda at regional level, in the same way as the Iranian Khomeinist regime, as well as Isra43ll and Satanyahu, who are ready to recolonize the Strip.
The various actors involved are thus exploiting the Palestininas as sacrificial victims of a predictable “genocide”, and that casts serious doubts on the “strategic-military rationality” of the attack carried out by Ḥamās on October 7, especially in light of the prophetic method in conducting the armed jihād.
However, these topics are not being discussed at all in the many self-styled pro-Palestine university “camps”. Rather, the irrational exaltation of Ḥamās and the Houthis continues to be fashionable among students in the streets, squares, and on social media, thanks to the propaganda of “agitators” by profession, including an impressive number of young Muslim “brothers” and “sisters”, who, to close the circle, also secretly sympathize with al-ʿAwlaqī, an “idol” for all the “misguided of jihad”.
In whose hands did the “Palestinian cause” end up? In whose hands did Yemen end up? How profoundly sad. All we have left is Allāh subhanahu wa ta’ala, and to Him we address our prayers from Yemen to Palestine.
