#Yemen is a very active topic on Twitter these days, with a number of online campaigns underway, some of which are trending globally. What’s new and interesting is the massive participation by Yemenis using these hashtags #HouthiTerrorismInYemen & #StopHouthiTerrorismInYemen 1/13
These hashtags were started by a group called “Aqyal,” an emerging social movement that fights Hashemite supremacy and calls for equal opportunities for all Yemenis. It’s widely supported by Yemeni youth, including those affiliated with the existing political parties. 2/13
Aqyal was able to rally people across the political spectrum against Houthis for the first time, and this success was due to 1) their independence, 2) all of them are volunteers, 3) transparency in organizing, and 4) the fact that it’s a just cause. 3/13
#Biden administration allows #Houthis to conduct international financial transactions for one month (until Feb. 26). A temporary relief from terror designation, and likely a goodwill gesture toward #Iran./1

Without a political or military settlement, #Houthi takeover of #Yemen will continue to be seen in the region as a first step toward destabilizing #Gulf states, & a threat to energy+economic security, linked to the larger debate on future peace vision vs. extremism in Mideast /2
For all the operational mistakes of the #Yemen govt in exile & its #Gulf backers, #Iran's role in prolonging the war by supporting a proxy is the key. It's not dissimilar to how Tehran prolonged the #Afghanistan civil war in 1990s. /3

The Houthi group is a non-political group because its ideology is based on the fact that Abdul-Malik al-Houthi is a chosen Imam by Allah therefore they do not believe in elections or the participation of the other Yemenis in power

The Houthi group represents a very small percentage of a very limited area at Northern of Yemen; it does not represent the Zaydi doctrine as the majority of Zaydis are enemies of this racist group.

The stay of arms with a violent racist group such as the Houthi would not be a stabilizing factor for🇾🇪or region,The opposite will happen as many youth would join groups opposed to the Houthi,such as Al Qaeda & ISIS that are looking for such environment
