Yemen Forces and counter forces

 

Forces

Counter forces

You can knock me down, step on my face, slender my name all over the place; but don’t tell me that Middle Eastern revolution is not an Islamic attempt to take over the land.

 

Sanaa Yemen, spider’s web

It is a well known phrase and often uttered that “The road to hell is paved with good intentions when the devil is leading.”

To overthrow the repressor is the road of good intentions but the acts of killing of innocent people and children is the deeds of the devil and it will lead nowhere else but Hell.

Most of us know that Yemen of about 24,000,000 people is the poorest country of the Arab region. It has 35% unemployment and it is the size of Thailand or the 49^th country in terms of land. It has not much oil reserves as the rest of the countries do and the worse of all the biggest part of the revenues goes to the government. We can honestly say that the government is not 100% at fault but we can honestly say the government is at fault equal to the % of the oil revenues that it takes.

There is an old Greek saying “I shall tell you where you are going if you will tell me who is taking there”.

Government forces have killed 30 Islamic militants in Yemen’s troubled southern province of Abyan, the defense ministry said Tuesday, It appears their efforts were to take back what the Islamic military had taken and lost it. Clashes were reported to have erupted between rebellious tribesmen and army troops close the presidential palace in Yemen’s second largest city Taiz. It is unknown if there were any casualties in the fighting, it is known, though, that a shell was fired from a rebel tank, which did not land on the palace but it hit residential area killing four people including three children. There goes to show you that anarchy is thriving there, escorted by ignorance, hate and stupidity that should make the hearts of the instigators of this revolution as big as the Garden of Eden.

The violence underscores fears of increasing instability in the Arab world’s most impoverished country days after President Ali Abdullah Saleh left for neighboring Saudi Arabia to seek treatment for wounds he suffered Friday in a rocket attack on his compound in Sanaa, the Yemeni capital.

Fighting also occurred on the ground where dozens of militants attacked an army position in Abyan, which claimed the lives of nine soldiers and six of the attackers, The army has regained control of the post after hours of fighting.

Also in Abyan, the officials said artillery shelling by government troops killed four suspected militants in Jaar, another area that has fallen under Islamic militant control, on Tuesday.                                                  A brief defense ministry statement said 30 Islamic militants were killed Monday night and Tuesday, but did not provide a breakdown or give more details about the fighting.

he United States fears that this power vacuum will give freer rein to al-Qaida’s branch in Yemen — one of the terror network’s most active franchises, behind two attempted terror attacks on U.S. targets. I am glad to hear that. The United States must take sides and be ready to live with one of the devils. USA should bear in mind the (regime devil) doesn’t want to expand, but the Islams, as far as they are concerned, the sky is the limit. We cannot live under cloudy skies, thus find a away to do away with the clouds

A top official said he would return home within days, a step almost certain to cause more violence.

A return by Saleh would likely spark new, intensified fighting between his forces and opposition tribesmen determined to topple him. Both sides’ fighters are deployed in the streets of the capital, and a cease-fire brokered by Saudi Arabia only a day earlier was already starting to fray, with clashes killing at least six over the past 24 hours.

At this point I would suggest for NATO forces and Obama to take steps, to ease up the situation,  unless they want Saudi Arabia to be next line for the rebels and the Islamic Militia to attack.
