| [HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] 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... has recruited thousands of people from the southern provinces of Yemen ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of... as an additional force within the so-called "Dera al-Watan" forces, well-informed sources said on Monday. The sources stated that Saudi Arabia is preparing three military brigades from the southern recruits and train them in Ma’rib province, on the outskirts of Shabwah and Hadhramaut provinces in eastern Yemen. This comes after Riyadh deployed the "Dera al-Watan" forces at al-Abr road in Hadhramaut and at al-Wadea border crossing between Yemen and Saudi Arabia, after the refusal of the Saudi commander of the "support brigade" of the Saudi-led coalition, Sultan al-Baqami, the deployment of the UAE-backed "Hadhrami elite" at the crossing. The oil-rich eastern provinces of Yemen have turned into a theater for Saudi-Emirati competition, serving the US-British presence in those regions. |
