Al-Qaeda in Saada as well

We are not launching incitement against anyone, but we turn the attention of President and the Reconciliation Government "RG" that the situation in Saada is not far from that of Abyan. The situation in Saada under the rule of the Houthi is the same as the one which Abyan experienced for more than a year. Al-Houthi and their militia have the same thinking of al-Qaeda if not more, with the difference of their reference. Al-Qaeda exceeds the Houthis by that it is not aggressive to the people, unlike what the Houthis do against the people in Saada and the neighboring Directorates.
As the Houthis spokespersons allege that they call for a civil state and equity between the citizens, they have to hand over their heavy weapons to the state, dissolve their militias and yield to the state's institutions like the other citizens so as to prove their sincerity and remove any doubt.
It is fair to ask the Houthis to hand over their weapons unconditionally. They can stipulate on the government and president Hadi to reconstruct Saada, compensate the people over the damages of the wars that was launched by Selah and his deposed regime, where the only losers were the simple people, who, the wars had destroyed their houses and farms, because it is not fair after the blessed revolution for a Yemeni governorate to remain a hostage in the hands of the Houthis, to be governed by iron and fire, raiding the citizens' houses whenever its ruler desires, without justification, as if Saada became a state within the state, and it is really so.
The Houthis are now on the test, either they embark on forming a political party, reject violence, dissolve their militias and become normal citizens with rights and duties, or the state will impose its control on its territories on the way it sees to be appropriate so that it will be clear to all whether the Houthis want a civil state or a new southern Lebanon.
