Houthi aide toes up
2004-07-06
Yemeni forces have killed a top aide of anti-U.S. cleric Hussein al-Houthi but lost five of their own men, raising the death toll in two weeks of clashes to at least 146, a government source said on Tuesday.
"The man who shot Abdullah Ruzami,
He was the bravest of them alllll!"
"Yemeni forces killed Abdullah al-Ruzami, one of the biggest Houthi supporters, yesterday," the source said. "Five of our forces were killed and another five wounded." On Monday, Yemeni officials said security forces had killed 10 members of Houthi’s "Believing Youth" group in mountainous Saada province in northern Yemen. Sources close to Houthi have put the death toll from the clashes, which began on June 20, at about 200. Government sources say hundreds more of his supporters have been wounded or arrested or have surrendered to authorities.
"Oooch! Ouch! Hey! Stop it! You're hurting me! I quit!"

#1  And I quote:

Abdullah al-Ruzami walks warily down the street,
With the brim pulled way down low
Ain’t no sound but the sound of his feet,
Machine guns ready to go
Are you ready, are you ready for this
Are you hanging on the edge of your seat
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat

Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone
Another one bites the dust
Hey, I’m gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust
