Looking at Ansuallah, known in the Collective West as simply the “Houthis” who are named by the West after their founder Hussein al-Houthi; it must be said that they have come a long way from their humble beginnings in the early 1980’s. Today, Ansarullah, when talked about by Dr. David Oualaalou of YouTube channel entitled: “The Geopolitics In Conflict Show” stated that [paraphrasing] “the Houthis are putting the other Muslim and Arab countries to shame in the region”. As an academic scholar he has a point that can't be denied. while Muslim and Arab countries in the region are embracing the large amounts of funds and aid from America and the Collective West, Ansarullah are the only Muslim/Arab country in the region that is fighting for the Palestinian people – and to this day they stand undefeated by any nation that is either backed by or makes up the Collective West.

Ansarullah, according to reports, are a minority-based Zaydi Shiites organization with factions in Iran, Yemen, and Iraq and draws their conviction of fighting corruption on all levels and in any form based upon two religious’ principles. The first is their belief in the Quran (with no interpretation needed) and the belief in the divine right of the descendants of Ahl al-Bayt to rule as a governing body. For the people of Palestine and Yemen – they are looked at as angels on the battlefield; for America and the Collective West, they are considered to be Extremist and since American President Donald Trump's second term in office, Ansarullah is now back to being considered a Terrorist Organization. According to a Newsweek piece on Ansuallah written in 2015, entitled: “Rise of the Houthis”:

“Houthis call for things that all Yemenis crave: government accountability, the end to corruption, regular utilities, fair fuel prices, job opportunities for ordinary Yemenis and the end of Western influence.”

To the average person living in the Collective West, this seems reasonable. It is our position at VEDA Communications that the vast majority of people that live in countries that makeup the Collective West are simply not willing to go to the lengths that Ansuallah has taken it to – hence the term Extremism/Extremist can easily be applied.

However, whether western governments call them Extremist or Terrorist; In the past couple of weeks on the order of President Trump, the American Military has executed several airstrikes with the promise of more “unrelenting” bombing campaigns on what turned out to be civilians instead of their intended target, the Houthis. According to President Trump, there will be more bombings in the immediate future. There are two reasons for this. The first reason lies in Ansarullah being successful in their efforts to stop the flow of commercial ships thus affecting international trade in both the Gulf of Aden and Red Sea. 

The second reason lies in the fact the American Military Industrial Complex needs a minimum estimated amount of $50 billion a year to operate. So, keeping America in a state of perpetual war only makes sense. For countries like America and Israel who to the international community are perceived as “too scared” to engage Ansarullah on the ground directly and to “pick on countries they’re own size”, have been resorting to bombing campaigns that seem to be the way they get to keep their troops and military servicemen safe from being slaughtered on the battlefield against Ansarullah. 

When it comes to being undefeated, countries such as Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, the Yemeni government, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, Egypt, Jordan, Morocco, Sudan, Israel, and the United Kingdom have all failed to defeat Ansuallah. The question that is currently up for discussion is “Why does America think it can defeat Ansuallah now when their allies who were backed by them couldn't do it before?”. Many geopolitical pendants are taking the position that America's new war against Ansarullah will mark the start of another “Forever War” that they [America] will never win. However, the losers of America's war against Ansarullah are clear – the civilian population on both sides.
