he prominent Brotherhood member, Hamid al-Ahmar, came out yesterday evening with a message he addressed to Brigadier General Tariq Saleh, which sparked widespread controversy, and politicians considered it a bombed message aimed at thwarting the military rapprochement, after the brigadier general's calls to unify the republican ranks.

The leader of the Islah party, Sheikh Hamid Abdullah al-Ahmar, sent a message to the commander of the National Resistance Forces, "Guardians of the Republic," Brigadier-General Tariq Saleh, in which he held him responsible for the defeats that are taking place in Marib Governorate.

Al-Ahmar accused Tariq Saleh of subordination to the UAE. 

He also questioned the sincerity of their intentions, saying that "if the UAE is honest with you, it will support you to defend your homeland and liberate your people from the influence of Iran's priestly militia and avenge your uncle. As for their support for you in the media only, it is something I think is not appropriate for you."

Al-Ahmar indicated that the UAE obligated Tariq Saleh to stay in the training camps for years, stressing the dispensation of the participation of Tariq's forces in the defense of Marib.

Regarding Al-Ahmar’s message, journalist Muhammad Saeed Al-Sharabi said that the Republic of Hamid Al-Ahmar is concentrated in the geography of the oil and gas triangle in Marib, Shabwa and Hadramawt, and will remain a Facebook group from the capital of the Caliphate as long as half of the country’s wealth revenues go to it in implementation of its agreement with Al-Danbou’(Hadi).

And the southern leader, Wadah bin Attia, considered Hamid's message, filled with hatred against Afash and his family, and his death as if he was killed in a personal way, a personal revenge.

The political activist, Malik Al-Yafei, mocked Hamid Al-Ahmar’s message from Turkey to Tariq Saleh asking him to go to Marib to liberate it from Al-Houthi and then go to liberate Sana’a, and said: If Hamid had sent the message to his brother Sadiq  Al-Ahmar asks him what he asked from Tariq. It was easier, at least his brother Sadiq is in Sana'a and will liberate it faster than Tariq.

Journalist Abdullah Al-Hadrami waited for Hamid to expand his ambition to return to the coast or Marib and join the fighters there, not the war on Facebook.

He added: Hamid al-Ahmar did not say anything different in his letter to Brigadier General Tariq Saleh than what Anis Mansour writes.  This is not surprising for someone who spent his father's wealth to overthrow the Yemeni state and then fled in search of the presidency of a community in exile.

The journalist, Iyad Al-Sharabi, stated that when Commander Tariq left Sanaa, he did not go to Istanbul or Doha or anywhere, but went to the battlefield with his rifle next to the rifle of any individual in the national resistance, and achieved victories that terrified the priesthood in his cave, while Hamid Al-Ahmar went from Sanaa to Ethiopia and opened the largest residential city with a value of 100 million dollars.

Journalist Muhammad Al-Hajami indicated that the letters of the message are contaminated, and said: “Did Al-Ahmar see the video in which Sadiq Al-Ahmar was withdrawn while they were saying you are in the face of the master, did Hamid Al-Ahmar return to take revenge on Al-Houthi?  And taking a front and fighting at least repays the favor enabled by a tribe like Hashid and a sheikh like Sadiq.”

Activist Sireen Al-Saleh said, "Sheikh Al-Ahmar is oppressed and distracted, and he wants to show himself in any way at this stage, but his appearance was lackluster, and through his words, it seems that he and the Brotherhood are in a state of confusion, because Brigadier General Tariq pull the rug out, and the Brotherhood will be neutralized and their plans that contributed to the expansion of the Houthi project will be thwarted.

The journalist, Ghamdan Al-Yousifi, considered Hamid's message strange and indescribable.  He said: Hamid, who left Marib and the country and went to invest his money that he earned due to his father's authority outside the country, speaks as if he is financing the national army in Marib, while making his channel staff begging for their salaries.

He asked: What have you given to Marib or to Yemen, Sheikh?
