Alwaght-It is said that Abdul Aziz Al-Saud warned his sons, on his deathbed, from giving Yemen the chance to unite. This explains Saudi’s attitude, where it has hindered and rejected any unity between the North and South of Yemen.
After the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1990, in spite of all Saudi's efforts since 1972 to thwart unity, an agreement was signed between the ruler of North Yemen Ali Abdullah Saleh and the representative of the Socialist Party in the South Yemen Ali Salem Al-beedh. The Yemen Arab Republic (North) was united with the Republic of Popular Republic Democratic Yemen (South) on 22 May of the same year. It was agreed that Saleh to be the president, whilst Al-beedh occupied the post of Vice President. At that time, Libya, Iraq, and Egypt blessed this agreement.
Saudi was quick to accuse Yemen conspiring against its own regime, deployed Pakistani mercenaries on the border with Yemen, launched a media campaign against Yemen, and expelled nearly half a million Yemeni workers from its own territory which impacted negatively the Yemeni economy, as well as supported tribes who refused unity.
On May 20th 1994, war broke out in Yemen. On the track, Ali Salem Al-beedh announced himself president of the State of the South; No one recognized it, but Saudi, succeeded in snatching a similar recognition of Kuwait, Bahrain, and the United Arab Emirates. However, the escape of the Al-beedh, later on, was considered a victory for the unity of the Yemeni year in July 1994.
In February 2011, a popular revolution broke out in Yemen, demanding the President Ali Abdullah Saleh to leave. The Revolution was successful in overthrowing Ali Abdullah Saleh after putting Saudi under the pressure to give up on him, despite the fact that Saleh's policies, particularly the wars in the north, turned him into an ally of Saudi.
Due to this fact that the Saudi policy is demolishing in the region, and has lost most of its influence options in the region, Saudi is now trying indescribably, to put its hand on the Yemeni arena which constitute political, military, geographic and economic priority for Saudi. In this contest, Saudi has managed to support al-Qaida there with weapons and equipment. In addition, it has managed to send more than 32 thousand Al-Qaeda fighters from Syria, Lebanon, and Jordan to Yemen in less than a month, and pledged the costs of their transfer through Turkey and Doha Airport in Qatar up to a garage in Yemen. The Al-Qaeda fighter congregate there in special camps, and are trained to use new weapons. Some insurgents are subject to various types of courses such as media and doctrinal, military courses in order to confront the Ansarullah Movement and the Yemeni army.
In a possible scenario, Saudi may resort to persuade Hadi to declare secession and the announce Aden as the new temporary capital. Therefore, starting military confrontations with the Ansarullah Movement and putting Yemen into a new state of chaos and violence; the kind of chaos that Saudi and the Persian Gulf states want is to disrupt Ansarullah Movement’s progress especially after the support given to the Movement in most cities of Yemen, and welcoming their rapid and convincing violence free progress.
International policies relating to the latter events of Yemen resembles what happened in the early stages of the Syrian crisis. The West, the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council (PGCC), and Turkey arranged a triangular campaign aimed at demonizing the Syrian government in the media and boycott by the European Union and the PGCC, America and the former League of Arab States. In addition, supporting all types of mercenaries and terrorists who are going to Syria with money and weapons, training and border logistics from Turkey.
This is what is actually happening today in Yemen. Since the seventies of the last century, Saudi’s policy has wreaked the country with devastation, destruction, and dependency.
The Saudi’s continue their explosive context through pushing the US administration to exert all kinds of pressure to expel Ansarullah Movement. These efforts came after the Saudi has sensed that Ansarullah Movement in Yemen may undermine their royal elite.
Al-Saud Maliciousness reached a limit that they forced Egypt to take precautions from Ansarullah Movement, to the extent that Marshal Sisi threatened war in case of the Bab Al-Mandab strait closure. Therefore, there is regional and international rally which resembles what happened in Syria back in 2013 and 2014, and continues until now; international and regional threats, shipping, arming and seditionist media. All of this aims to prepare for the civil wars that will never end ... If Syria withstood the conspiracy, Yemen will not be inferior, but at the expense of the safety of its people and political entity, which is already threatened with split, as Al-Saud wish.
Saudi launched its embassy in Yemen officially from Aden; the news was announced by "Al-Sharq Al-Awsat" newspaper as the title of its home page.
Saudi newspaper story annexed with the writers overall analysis, comes to confirm that Saudis’ decision is to enhance escalation in Yemen.
Early indications suggest that Saudi aimed at taking into consideration all options possible in Yemen, and the goal is to take Yemenis back to "house of obedience,” and Yemen should obey whatever Saudi says, including pursuing policies either to be the case according to what Saudi wants, or else things will be open on suicide options; the best of which for Riyadh are splitting Yemen or civil war.
The leader of the Yemeni Socialist Party Mohammed Makaleh says, “Saudi Arabia lives a moment of madness in its policies toward the Arabs in general and especially towards the Yemenis, it’s a clumsy approach that at the end will take Saudi Arabia into abyss and tear and collapse.” He further adds, “Saudi Arabia sends terrorism and terrorists to Yemen and provides them with money and weapons to fight the Yemenis and ruin their homeland, which makes it moderate and polite speech toward Saudi Arabia policies and gross interference in our internal affairs is unacceptable.”
Yemeni journalist Ali Aldrvani asserts that "not only Yemen is in danger but also Saudi Arabia" itself, recalling the attacks of Al-Qaeda carried out against the Saudi border guards, and said "probably Saudi Arabia is fancied it would be immune from danger; however, al-Qaeda lurks in Saudi Arabia more than Yemen."
Aldrvani considers that the transfer of the embassies of Saudi and Qatar to Aden is “an attempt to portray that the situation in Aden is an ideal situation and it was the best of Sanaa, but the truth is the opposite.”
Inevitably, any scenario that ignites Yemen, Saudi will not be spared from it.
