The most outspoken Yemeni socialist leader at the turn of the century was Jarallah Omar, the then-deputy secretary of the Socialist Party.

In 2002, during a conference organized by the Islah Party, a gunman rose up and fatally shot Jarallah Omar twice in the chest.
At that time both the Socialist Party and the Islah Party were organized in what was called "The Joint Meeting Parties", the official parliamentary opposition to Ali Abdullah Saleh's rule.

The gunman had known and proven ties to the Islah party as well.
Again, the Ansarallah and the Socialist Party were able to find common ground in the wake of Jarallah Omar's murder, due to their shared opposition to internal reactionary tendencies.

They co-organized a vigil for Omar in 2013. He is considered a martyr by both parties.

"A red star above Yemen".

Another book yet to be translated.

I am so deliriously excited to be working on this project. Image
If any of my Arabic-speaking mutuals would like to help out with this gigantic project, please do not be afraid to reach out.

We are only a handful of people spread out across the seven seas, and we could definitely make use of a helping hand or two.
And although my Arabic-speaking capabilities aren't fit for translating publications, I handle all the designs & procurement of texts.

We've only just begun, but the translation process is already going strong with at least one major release.

Work is currently ongoing in Sana'a for the construction of a monument dedicated to Abu Fadhl Tomer, the heroic Yemeni fighter who saved dozens of wounded comrades beneath a mountain in a beat-up BMP-1 APC before inevitably achieving the fate of martyrdom for his country.
The monument, immortalizing an ultimate sacrifice, will feature a 1x1 scale model of the vehicle Abu Fadhl Tomer drove to save his countrymen and his friends. Image
Hani Mohsen Salah Tomer was his full name. His comrades in arms called him Abu Fadhl - Father of Grace. His Nom De Guerre.

His name forever immortalized as the greatest example of the morals and ethics that have defined the Yemeni struggle for freedom and independence. Image

Crazy how the one time Yemen tries its luck with a peaceful revolution it is immediately hijacked by Muslim Brotherhood reactionaries and the GCC.

September 26, October 14 and September 21st were all armed rebellions deeply rooted in anti-colonial sentiment.
I am of course referring to the "Youth Revolution" that took place on February 11th, 2011, which is barely being celebrated anymore.

All it did was open the gates for the Islah party to exert dominance in state affairs.
It was also backed up by the cosmopolitan bourgeoisie and think-tank pundits overseas.

September 26th, October 14th and September 21st were all largely organized and supported by the rural peasantry.
