More strikes by US and British invaders hit Yemen
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] The US-British aggression air forces launched on Thursday new Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
s on several areas in the Republic of Yemen

A security source in Hajjah province, stated that the US-British aircraft targeted the Buhais area of Medi district with two airstrikes.

In Hodeidah province, a security source explained that the aggression aircraft waged an airstrike on al-Jah area of Bayt al-Faqih district and two raids on the al-Lahiya district.

Last week, the US-Saudi aggression aircraft launched a raid on Hodeidah Airport.

These raids come within the framework of an ongoing aggression by Britannia and America against Yemen in an attempt to dissuade its position of support for Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...

#9  The Houthi movement itself began in the nineteen nineties when a small knot of insurgents calling themselves "the Believing Youth" was created under the leadership of Hussein Badr al Din al Houthi. The politico-religious movement, active in Amran and Sa'ada provinces, was determined to seek regional autonomy and revive Zaidi shiism, a sect whose dominant belief is that only descendants of the Prophet Mohammad can be legitimate Muslim rulers. (The Hashimite Imamate ruled Yemen for centuries before a coup ended its rein in 1962.) The Zaidi opposed Yemen President Saleh; though he was a member of the sect, he did not have the Hashimite bloodline required to assume leadership. In addition, the Houthi believed that for decades the Zaidi had been marginalized economically, and thus the movement was determined to take a bigger bite of Yemen's (minuscule) economic pie. And now there is practically no pie, and continued air attacks will ensure that once again Yemen will be rushing pell-mell backward to the 14th century.
