The US Administration is impudently involved in hurting the fighters of the Yemeni state, who exerted efforts and sacrificed money and soulsin defending their state, homeland and the common life.It does not hesitate to support the armed terrorist factionrepresented by the Iranian-linked Houthi group.
The news of the imposition of sanctions by the US Treasury Department on Sheikh Al-Hassan Ali Abkar, Abdullah Faisal Sadiq al-Ahdal and Rohama Charitable Foundation for their alleged links to terrorism was truly shocking. It brought to mind the series of the condemned procedures that the US Treasury has taken against two well-known Yemeni figures, Dr. Abdul-WahabAl-Humeikani, Secretary General of theRashad Party, and Nayef al-Qaisi, governor of Al-Baydha.
The American standards of terrorism still reflect the Crusader problem in the conduct of the Western community. At the same time, it reflects the imperialistic tendency that magnifies the interests of America and the West, and playing with the interests, security, stability and dignity of other nations. It is an unmanageable kind of terrorism practice against the nations of our region.
These actions can only be understood as part of a deliberate attack by the US State Department and the intelligence services, which operate within a disclosedagenda that aims at weakening the state's restoration front in Yemen by forcibly linking them to the "American perception of terrorism" after the US State Department exhausted all its attempts to adapt the settlement in Yemen in favor of the Houthis.
This group, which everyone knows that it started a proxy war in Damaj but with a very dangerous sectarian tendency, has aborted one of the most important experiences of peaceful political transition in the region. The Yemeni people suffered, during years of the American support for the Houthis,from the dangers of the collapse of the state and the consequences of the devastating civil war that killedthousands and injured tensof thousands of Yemenis and displaced millions of them, and blocked the horizon in front of the whole people.
This sectarian gang is still moving forward with the task of spoiling life under the eyes of the American administration, the hypocritical, that left no means to provide support for the Houthis. The last of these was the known vision for peace in Yemen that was presented by the outgoing US Secretary of State John Kerry, during his last visit to the Omani capital, Muscat, and I believe that he finally reached to an agreement with this gang to accept a cease-fire and then he announced that the Arab Coalition and the Houthis have agreed to a cease-fire and to hold talks leading to the formation of a government.
This deliberate ignorance by Kerry to the legitimate government in such fateful arrangements indicates that the US State Department was racing to achieve this dangerous settlement, and that it had no long time,it had finished all bad arrangements that had begun with the fall of Sana'a and ended with the impending overthrow of the legitimate government.
Sheikh Al-HassanAbkar, his colleague and the “RohamaFoundation”have no money that the US administration can confiscate. It is a compassionate humanitarian effort, and any other institution can complete the task. But the evil in all these actions is the deliberate offence against the credibility of political leaders who are beside the legitimacy, and who represent the hard core in the face of the sectarian project of Iran in the region.
These actions can be continued to achieve what the Houthiscould not achieve through their military and terrorist actions that had already destroyed the houses of Al-Hassan Abkar in al-Jawf, and killed two of his sons. This was real terrorism that exposes to what extent this group acts as a mercenary for the Americans while raising the slogan of "Death to America.."For millions of Yemenis, Abkar isone of the symbols of sacrifice and patriotic action of resistance and who seek to reunite the Yemeni people and consolidate the foundations of order and law, thus most of Yemenis deal with this man, his colleague and other fighters, who did not choose war, but it was imposed on them. They have fought for the homeland, for the state and for peace.
When America gets involved in this dubious mission of unfair classification of Yemeni militant figures, it has offended a broad spectrum of the Yemeni society. While it wanted to demonstrate the unreliability of those who are fighting beside the legitimacy, itat the same time revealed how far the US administration lacks credibility, integrity and a sense of the importance of justice as well.
