Internal traitors and Arab regional diplomacy impede designating the Houthis as a terrorist organization

Taiz, NewsYemen, special:

 Informed sources revealed the movements of local parties, which they described as "traitors of the interior", impeding the designation of the Houthi coup militia as a "terrorist organization", supported by the diplomacy of some countries pacifying the Houthis.

These moves come in conjunction with the announcement by the administration of US President Joe Biden, that it is studying the reclassification, and the League of Arab States demanded all countries to classify the Houthi group "as a terrorist organization after its attacks with missiles and drones on the UAE", and the international community, on the impact of repeated demands, began to study the same matter.  

Islah activists are traitors inside

 The sources stated that these parties include activists and politicians belonging to the Islah Party, the local branch of the Brotherhood, and they reside in Turkey, Qatar and Oman, and are working to thwart any efforts to classify the Houthi militias by virtue of their proximity to decision-makers in the kidnapped Yemeni legitimacy of the Brotherhood, noting that  Belqis channel, owned by the Brotherhood, Tawakkol Karman, which broadcasts from Turkey, has recently turned into a channel that adopts the visions and terminology of the Houthi militia in its dealings with the Yemeni crisis and is trying to show the militias as a victim.

The recent trend of Belqis TV aroused the discontent of dozens of journalists and observers at home, especially after describing the victims of the Southern Giants forces as "dead" and the victims of the Arab coalition raids of Houthi leaders as "martyrs".

 The sources described the role of these parties as “dangerous,” stressing that the movements of these parties are financed by the countries in which they reside and are fueled by Iran’s goals aimed at tightening its grip on the region through its sectarian militias such as Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Popular Mobilization in Iraq and the Houthis in Yemen.

Diplomacy of Oman, Turkey and Qatari media

 Simultaneously, Omani and Turkish diplomacy support the prevention of any US or international resolution classifying the Houthis as a "terrorist organization".

 The Sultanate of Oman hosts prominent Houthi leaders on its soil, headed by the militia spokesman, Muhammad Abdul Salam, and allows them to practice their political activities and hold meetings with their Iranian allies, despite the fact that the Omani constitution forbids this.

 A recent British security investigation also revealed the involvement of the Sultanate of Oman in smuggling Iranian weapons and drugs to the Houthis through the use of its coasts and boats licensed by the Omani authorities.

Meanwhile, the Turkish city of Istanbul, which hosts hundreds of Yemeni brothers, witnessed dozens of demonstrations supporting the Houthis and against the Arab alliance.

In early February, an event was held in Fatih Memorial Park, which is a natural park located in the Fatih area and opposite it is the Greater Istanbul Municipality Building, in which pictures of the leader of the Houthi militia and slogans supporting them were raised.

Yemeni sources in Turkey confirm that police patrols are not absent in this place at all, and any event, stop or gathering takes place only with the approval of the authorities, which politicians considered as confirmation of the Turkish government's position in support of the Houthis.

Politicians point out that the Qatari media machine, led by Al-Jazeera, has become one of the most prominent supporters of the Houthi coup militia, especially with the start of the Gulf boycott in June 2016.

Despite the recent Gulf reconciliation, the official Qatari media and the Brotherhood's media, which finances it, still adopt the Houthi policy and support their movements that threaten the region.

Politicians see that all of these parties complement each other, as the traitors inside make events that support the Houthis politically and militarily, and the diplomacy of Turkey, Oman and Qatar's media are marketing them abroad to the international community to block any decision that places the Houthis on the list of terrorism.
