Houthis in Yemen - Iranian influence in Yemen and the Saudi response
03/23/2015
Houthi rebels from northern Yemen- belonging to an offshoot of Shiite Islam- oust the government in Sanaa and move south to take Taiz, an airforce base in the south, and Aden. Iran supports the Houthi rebels in Yemen and the country fractures between Sunnis and Shiites, with sectarian conflict. This is part of a wider conflict in the region with the Gulf States, Saudi, Turkey and other countries taking sides in the conflict in Syria and Iraq. In 2015 the differences between the Saudis and Qatar are being bridged with the expansion in Iran's influence in the region, including Syria and Iraq. The conflict in Yemen draws the Sunni side together against Shiite Iran with the Saudi airstrikes on targets in Yemen.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
