Alwaght-Yemen's 2011 revolution was deviated from its goals by Saudis' plans. Nevertheless, the second uprising is emerging which differs from the first one in several aspects. Firstly, in the 2011 revolution, people called for falling political systems in Yemen. But, at the present time, people agree with the political system and only want the resignation of the cabinet and uprooting corruption.
Such a demand made other opposition parties to participate in a widespread demonstration holding by Ansarullah. Secondly, in 2011 revolution, there was no central organization leading the movements and demonstrators, mostly young people, lacked public support, while the current revolution is leading by Ansarullah, an experienced and a well-organized party with tens of thousands members and a significant leader. They have made decisions and put them into action rationally to fulfill their constant and definite demands.
Saudi regime did its best to deviate Yemen's 2011 revolution. They imagined that it has stopped the revolution at least for ten years, which their efforts failed by the beginning of new waves of anti-regime demonstration. Al-Khalifa has heavily supported the regime of Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, which follows Saudi's commands step by step. If al-Saud uses military force and airstrikes against demonstrators to save its puppet regime in Yemen, the status of demonstrators, particularly Ansarullah, will become stronger. Since On the one hand al-Saud is not able to defeat well-armed Ansarullah via airstrikes; on the other hand, Ansarullah is able to oust the corrupted regime of Hadi due to public support it enjoys and peaceful ways it selects. Although, according to Ansarullah belief, carrying guns is a tradition, their leader has asked them not to carry guns to show that to what extent they want to solve problems peacefully and democratically.
Yemen's second revolution was triggered by regime's cutting fuel subsidies which followed by weeks of protests. Under the mounting pressure, regime vowed cabinet dismissal and lowering fuel price, but these overtures did not go far enough for Yemenis, because they were pessimistic about them. Yemeni protesters believe that Abd Rabbuh tries to buy time to save his position by al-Saud's and western countries' aids. Therefore, they have announced that they will not quit demonstration, unless serious measures are taken by the regime to fulfill their demands, i.e. ending the current corruption and changing cabinet.
