Yemen Conflict and Saudi Arabia Relations

For Yemeni armed forces to take an action. If they didn't take an-any action against Saudi Aramco at that time, I think people will rise up against, uh, Ansar Allah, the Houthi here in Sana'a. That's why would they have launched that major attack against Aramco in Najran and in Jizan and in Asir. And from that on, it has

escalated more because Saudi continue to target Yemeni, uh, civilian infrastructure. And it's just, uh... Sorry, one more thing. The Saudi, why wasting a fighter jet that cost you, or like, uh, three or five fighter jet to send them to a, a civilian area, to a market, to a school, to a bridge,

to bomb it, while you can use those fighter jet in the battlefield to target the advance of Yemeni armed forces? So, uh, I think the, the, the, the, the, the, I, I don't know, they enjoy killing civilians. They know every civilian

is killed have a tribe behind him. That tribe will join Ansar Allah, the Houthi because Yemeni know that they will never, ever leave, uh, like, like they will take their revenge even after many, many years. They will not, uh, allow anyone to kill any of

their, uh, uh, relative without taking revenge. And this time, actually, the revenge is, is all on, on Saudi Arabia. If the, if the war is not brought to an end by Saudi Arabian, uh, w- I, I've seen some talk about Ansar Allah

p-potentially even moving into what is considered now, uh, Saudi territory, and I also saw a, uh, Ansar Allah official, I think it was Muhammad Al-Bukhaiti. Is ... By the way, is he, is he your brother or, or-

Yes, he's my brother. Yeah. He's, he's your brother. So I, I think I saw him talking about, uh, Yemen's willingness to support either, you know, rival factions in the Saudi royal family or other opposition groups inside Saudi Arabia. So what kind of offensive, uh,

capabilities is Ansar Allah considering at this point? Uh, the, the, we still, we see that Yemeni, uh, retaliation attack against Saudi, we still, uh, kind of being k- uh, like, kind and nice towards Saudi Arabia, uh, because still Yemeni could, as I said,

could launch hundred of missiles against all the Saudi, uh, infrastructure, and they could knock it out in a matter of hours. And as well, they can, uh, uh, uh, launch attack against Saudi power station. We did not do that yet.

Saudi have destroyed all our pow-power station. And as well against Saudi water plant, so this actually, they will die from thirst. They will taste a little bit of what they have been doing to Yemen. But one of the strongest card that, uh, Yemeni have is a ground

attack, uh, to south of Saudi Arabia, to Najran and Jizan and Asir, and those province, actually, they, we still, every single Yemeni still consider those as a Yemeni, uh, uh, uh, uh, province that were taken by the Saudi in the '30s because of the help of the, of, of the United Kingdom.

They have bombed the hell out of, uh, Hodeidah port, and they have entered part there. And then our imam at that time, he was forced to, to give those to Saudi Arabia. Uh, in return, the United Kingdom stopped attacking Yemen and attacking Hodeidah. Uh, and, but he had an agreement called the Taif

Agreement. He, he made the Saudi sign an agreement that admitting that those our land, and they are kind of rented, uh, uh, in the Saudi, and the Saudi should not interfere in Yemen, should not launch a war against Yemen.

They should stop, uh, any, uh, like plan or anything that bad against Yemen, and as well, they should treat Yemeni as they treat Saudis. And the Saudi since 1934 when it was signed, they have actually not implement any of, of these paragraph in that

agreement. So the imam, when he did that agreement, he did it because he know at one point we will have a strong army, we will have a strong leader, like we have now, and we will be, uh, we will have the power to take those back from the Saudi because he know that the Saudi will break and obstruct every single agreement, uh, uh,

uh, that, that was signed in 1934. That's why if this a-a-attack against Saudi Arabia will come, I believe it, it, it's not only will be the Yemeni armed forces with their hundreds of thousands of fighters. It will be as well the entire tribes, uh, uh, near the Saudi border. They are so fed up with the Saudi.

Saudi has been sh-shelling them, and even during the truce that was signed 2022, which the Saudi has broke it, uh, uh, in mid of July by targeting Sana'a airport,

the Saudi have been bombarding those area, but not, uh, by airstrike, but just by, you know, artillery shell. And you know, uh, uh, the news only catch if there's an airstrike, but, uh... And they have actually dropped hundreds of thousands of cluster bombs on that area. Children are dying on a weekly basis

because of those cluster bomb there. You saw on the, on the Yemen, on the Yemen side of the border? Yeah, yeah, on the Yemen side, and all those are tribal's area. So the only thing that's holding them from entering and launching war against Saudi Arabia is because our leadership here

is still saying, "No, is not time." Hmm. If we can actually, uh, uh, make Saudi to have peace with Yemen and withdraw from Yemen,

we can negotiate about, uh, uh, uh, uh, Najran and Jizan and Asir by asking the Saudi to implement what was agreed. But if we enter those area, I think our demand will be different. At the beginning, three month ago, our demand was simple. Lift the blockade, implement the roadmap.

And, you know, that was signed between us and the Saudi-backed government. The Saudi ignored all that. Now our, our demand, we don't care about the roadmap because we are now the one who have the upper hand. In every battle, if you advance, your demand will, will change. This

is normal. I mean, this is not something that, uh, uh, we are ashamed of. So the demand now is a total liberation of Yemen and to stop interference and all the thing like that. The Saudi should not be interfere with, uh, with anything in Yemen. If they didn't do that, and

if at one point we enter the, those Najran, Jizan, Asir, our demand will be different, and we will not withdraw from this area. We might demand, uh, something more from the Saudi. So those latest attack against Saudi Arabia, actually, they

are threaten the House of Saud. If your house made of glass, stop throwing rocks at, uh, at your neighbors. Saudi Arabia, uh, was involved in the invasion of Iraq and the killing of millions of civilians, the attack on, on, on Libya, the, uh, the, the war of terrorists against, uh,

Syria because they always try, and the Saudi and United State, to contain the war in the country, that country that they are attacking. But when it comes to Yemen, we will bring the fire, and we will br- we will open

the gate of hell against them because we, we are not allow them to burn Yemen while they are just having, uh, this Riyadh, uh, uh, festival and, uh, uh, and I'm sure that, uh, they will not be able to he- to hold the, the World Cup in, uh, in, uh, in 2034 because if they continue, Yemen will destroy

their, uh, economy, and they will not have a single dime actually, uh, to spend in that World Cup.
