It is ironic that the #Houthis condemn suppression of peaceful demonstrations in US campuses. But this also shows how the group is very good at manipulating any situation to bolster their propaganda!

The Houthis announced that Iran is offering 473 scholarships for bachelor's, master's, and doctoral programs this year. To apply, applicants will need a Persian language certificate & pass the Iranian embassy test & interview, as per the Houthi-held Ministry of Higher Education.

Brief & to the point, Mahmoud Shehrah محمودشحره articulates the flaws in previous & currently proposed approaches to address the #Houthis threat to #RedSea & reach sustainable peace in #Yemen . Look no further for a good recommendation!

This groundbreaking book by همدان العليي is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand how starvation has been weaponized throughout #Yemen 's history & today.

“But if history teaches us one thing about the Houthis, it is that the group does not respond to half-made threats or to ‘playing nice’. Retaliatory actions such as the recent airstrikes launched by the US/UK, and Washington’s designation of the Houthis as SDGT are too little,…

Always great reads by Adel Dashela عادل دشيلة. This time discussing Saudis shifting alliances from northern to eastern tribes of #Yemen .

كل مافي الأمر اللعب على الوقت، ورهن حل القضية اليمنية بتطورات الوضع الإقليمي ،تشتري الدول الفاعلة من الحوثي بضاعته الدعائية وتتساوق مع قوله الدفاع عن غزة ، وتنتظر حلحلة الوضع هناك لإزالة خطر الحوثي الباليستي على السفن،والمضي معه في نهج تحاوري مفتوح على تسوية، هو من يرسم…

لتعزيز سلطتهم، أنشأ الحوثيون دولةً بوليسيّة ثيوقراطيّة. تُبجّل الجماعةُ مؤسِّسَها باعتباره 'القرآن الناطق'، وزعيمها الحالي باعتباره رئيس 'المسيرة القرآنية'.

My latest for Amwaj.media argues that the US/UK demonstrated strategic thinking limits in addressing the Houthi threat to global maritime trade & their miscalculations have only served to empower the group. In the piece, I break down why their approach hasn’t effectively worked.

Sorry Mr George Galloway MP

Iran cannot be trusted with nuclear weapons one bit!

As you’re a sitting MP, I will afford you the respect your office demands, and explain why:

Iran 🇮🇷 unlike North Korea 🇰🇵 created and operated several private invasive ideological armies outside…

This coincided with a notable decrease in #Houthis attacks on ships in #RedSea . Reports suggest the US may have promised #Iran to exert pressure on #Israel , potentially leading to limited attacks on Iran, in exchange for Iran curtailing its proxies' assaults on US interests.

#Iran 's proxy networks are already implicating the U.S. in #Israel 's strikes tonight -- claiming [illogically] that U.S. aircraft conducted refueling for #Israel 's jets over #Iraq airspace.

Watch this space. U.S. troops likely back in the target set, once again.

When someone tries to convince me that the Saudi- #Houthis roadmap is going to lead to deescalation & a political process that will 'put #Yemen in the path of durable peace'

We need to be pretty smarty and inventive to put this Ansar Allah cancer into remission - just re-doing the FTO is lazy and a counterproductive

Nadwa Dawsari To add to this: After a slow start as far back as 1998, Iran has been pumping indoctrination, ideology, arms and arms manufacturing technology into Yemen. From 2017 on, this has been a major focus of Iranian foreign activity. For 'Houthis', read 'Iran'. 1/2

Nadwa Dawsari Nothing of what the Houthis are, or do, is indigenous to Yemen. Despite all the tribal posturing by the leadership, its ALL Iranian led, backed, supported.
