Putting them into the historical and ethnic context of the region reveals a much more nuanced reality. Will there be a third part covering more recent events, or is there not enough material to justify it? Thanks!

The only solution to the civil war in Yemen and for the sake of peace is to go back to 2 separate states as was the case before unification in 1990. The issue was a poor unification process between North & South Yemen, that was rushed by the so called leaders at the time without due diligence. They did not bother to study the unification process, the cultural difference between the 2 countries. North was running on tribal law where as the South was running on civil law. Completely opposite sides of the same coin. Any one who thinks otherwise is miffed. The Southerners are awaiting a referendum to choose whether to remain united or to cease from the North.

@RedXlV Ай бұрын

"Unification" was possibly the worst thing to ever happen to Yemen. Just because two former colonies shared a name doesn't mean they're a nation that should be lumped together into a "unified" state. After all, "Yemen" didn't identify a cultural group, it just means "South".

By attacking shipping, the Houthi are sending a signal to other factions, and to all Yemenis, that the Houthi are the most legitimate faction now fighting for dominance in Yemen, IMHO. Also their cause now has worldwide attention and renewed respect within the Muslim world, I imagine. This terrific video by Kings and Generals has put the shipping attacks in perspective. The Houthi are in the middle of a protracted civil war and they've seized the situation in Gaza as an opportunity. Disrupting global trade is a side effect of what they really want, and they'll continue to attack shipping until the costs of this strategy outweigh the benefits.

@napolien1310 2 ай бұрын

Sending a signal to their own people in the north that they are legitimate, the southern Yemenis knows their games and their media is working on it, as for the Muslim world, the Houthies are trying to clean their names after all the deaths they caused and still cause in Yemen (look at the blockade on Taizz) the southerners will never forget nor forgive, only fools who love the talks of the houthies ofc they will see them as braves even tho they are fools and everyone knows about their charades. They are ruining Egypt and the Suez canal meanwhile not harming Israel not even a little bit as their port on the Mediterranean where their imports come in from Turkey and European countries. The more harm they do to the shipping lanes the expensive material become and the more harm they cause to Muslim countries. Smart people will realise this, only fools will love it.

@KingsandGenerals, What you failed to mention in the video is...... Ali Salem AlBeid lost the battle because Ali Saleh and his Northern entourage included Southerners who were in Key government posts. Like AbduRabu Mansour Hadi who was an Army General at the time. The reason some of the Southerners helped Ali Saleh was because of the 1986 civil war in South Yemen (before unification) and, there was deep animosity between the Southerners. So, it was pay back time.

The work that goes into these videos is immense but I'm surprised more people don't talk about how dense the information given is. At times it's just an overwhelming amount of information told at a breakneck speed and I think it would really benefit to try summarise events a bit sharper. Is it particularly necessary to indulge in the minutia of every single event leading up to the focus of a conflict? Generally it doesn't seem to aid in helping contextualise the overarching topic. It feels a lot like a wikipedia sprawl at times more than it does a visual documentary.

This video barely scratches the surface but that’s true. The video didn’t mention how Houthis were essentially a drug cartel (still are) before becoming a militia while Saleh was basically a drug runner before he got into politics.

@Yemen.south. Ай бұрын

The Houthis are not like the Yemenis in the north. They are a terrorist group and they have electronic flies that are always blazing them. They are a terrorist group that has turned against the state. The recent events in the Red Sea are nothing but agreed-upon plays. There are no casualties among the ranks of the American or Israeli army. Important note: Yemen is not one

Love or hate saleh, he said In the the 90s he suspects he will die killed in his country, he could have stayed in Saudia but came back knowing his life will end. One of his most famous statements is that "politics in yemen is like dancing on the head of snakes". No one in the near future will come who all the tribes will agree on like him so yemen is gone to shit for now unless they unify again.

They did a good job, but there are plenty of main-stream sources that also do a good job of covering this ongoing conflict. NPR, NYT, WaPo, Guardian, Foreign Policy, etc. If you aren't reading those, then no wonder you haven't encountered honest brokers.
