How Yemen\u2019s ‘asabiyya’ is reshaping geopolitics<\/a><\/h3>\n

The Arabic word Asabiyya, or ‘social solidarity,’ is a soundbite in the west, but taken very seriously by the globe’s new contenders China, Russia, and Iran. It is Yemen, however, that is mainstreaming the idea, by sacrificing everything for the world’s collective morality in a bid to end the genocide in Gaza.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

When there is a general change of conditions,<\/i><\/p>\n

It is as if the entire creation had changed<\/i><\/p>\n

and the whole world been altered,<\/i><\/p>\n

as if it were a new and repeated creation,<\/i><\/p>\n

a world brought into existence anew.\u00a0<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u2014\u00a0Ibn Khaldun<\/p>\n

Yemen’s Ansarallah resistance forces have made it very clear, right from the start, that they set up a blockade in the Bab el-Mandeb and the southern Red Sea only against Israeli-owned or destined shipping vessels. Their single objective was and remains to stop the Gaza genocide perpetrated by the\u00a0Israeli biblical psychopathy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As a response to a morally-based call to end a human genocide, the United States, masters of the Global War\u00a0Of<\/i>\u00a0Terror (italics mine), predictably re-designated Yemen’s Houthis as a \u201cterrorist organization,\u201d launched a serial bombardment of underground Ansarallah military installations (assuming US intel know where they are), and cobbled together a mini-coalition of the willing that includes its UK, Canadian, Australian, Dutch, and Bahraini vassals.<\/p>\n

Without missing a beat, Yemen’s Parliament declared the US and UK governments \u201cGlobal Terrorist Networks.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now let\u2019s talk strategy.<\/p>\n

With a single move, the Yemeni resistance seized the strategic advantage by de facto controlling a key geoeconomic bottleneck: the Bab el-Mandeb. Hence, they can inflict\u00a0serious trouble on sectors of global supply chains, trade, and finance.<\/p>\n
