SANAA, Oct. 09 (YPA) – The leader of Yemen’s revolution Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, hailed the Al-Aqsa Flood as a pivotal response to a long-standing Zionist project aimed at the complete liquidation of the Palestinian cause and the subjugation of the entire region. It is also a pivotal and critical turning point in the decades-long struggle of the Palestinian people.
In a speech on Thursday marking the second anniversary of the October 7th attack, he provided a comprehensive analysis of the pre-October 7th regional trajectory, indicating that the American-Israeli path was heading towards the complete liquidation of the Palestinian cause.
He clarified that “Al-Aqsa Flood” was not initiated to create a new problem but came in the context of “75 years of Zionist-Jewish criminality” targeting the Palestinian people.
Sayyed al-Houthi described the entire Zionist presence in Palestine as “aggression, criminality, occupation, and daily oppression, constituting usurpation and confiscation of rights.”
He pointed out that the enemy’s goal from the beginning was to secure complete control over Palestine and then move beyond it to implement the “Greater Israel” project.
Sayyed al-Houthi stressed that this project means total control over the region, transforming it to serve American and Zionist interests, and rendering the peoples of the nation “enslaved, submissive, stripped of dignity, and with their identity erased.”
The leader strongly attacked efforts to “liquidate the Palestinian cause,” which he said escalated before the Al-Aqsa Flood, highlighting the danger of involving Arab regimes in this scheme, with its most prominent manifestations being the “Deal of the Century” and attempts to change the face of the “Middle East.”
He affirmed that “the title of ‘normalization’ was not merely a betrayal of the nation; it was a relationship with the Israeli enemy on all levels,” describing agreements labeled as peace as having “a core of surrender and acquiescence to Israeli control.”
Sayyed Abdul-Malik considered that the normalizing Arab regimes committed, through these relations, to paving the way for “enabling the enemy to achieve comprehensive control,” foremost among these commitments being “accepting the liquidation and termination of the Palestinian cause and abandoning it.”
He denounced the refusal of some Arab regimes to sever diplomatic ties with the occupation, even at the peak of its crimes, as a “great catastrophe for the reality of the nation,” stating that this abandonment represents a confiscation of a people’s rights and a betrayal of sanctities, noting that “the cause has religious, moral, and humanitarian considerations and is linked to the national interests of the nation.”
The leader pointed to other dangerous paths pursued by the American-Israeli enemy with Western support to target the nation, most notably changing educational curricula, controlling religious discourse, linking the Arab economy [to Israel], and controlling water resources.
He warned that regimes that entered the path of normalization have moved to change official school curricula and remove verses from the Quran, distorting their concepts, with the aim of “raising a generation loyal to the Israeli enemy” and preparing generations to accept Zionist control, describing this as an “occupation of minds and hearts.”
Sayyed al-Houthi revealed a dangerous path to “linking the Arab economy to the Zionist enemy,” making it the dominant and controlling force, noting that the “Al-Aqsa Flood” battle “delayed the process of linking the Arab economy,” including plans to turn the port of Haifa into a regional hub and dig an alternative canal to the Suez (the Ben-Gurion Canal).
The leader noted that the Israeli entity effectively controls the water of the Palestinian and Jordanian people and a high percentage of that of the Syrian people, and seeks to complete its control to reach the Nile and Euphrates rivers, using its control over water as “a means to humiliate, subdue, and enslave the peoples of the nation.”
Sayyed Abdul-Malik also addressed the path of “infiltration and corruption” in some Arab countries, warning of its consequences for the nation, and strongly criticizing the opening of doors to “corruption, erasing identity, and emptying youth of moral content,” indicating that this would lead to “making them subservient to the Jews.”
He also criticized the scene in the land of the Two Holy Mosques, where “lewd, debauched dancing parties” coincide with the “peak of Zionist criminality,” a “image intended to become widespread in the reality of the nation.”
The leader revealed the process of naturalizing “thousands of Zionist Jews” in some Gulf countries since the very beginning of normalization, aiming to enable their influence at all levels, warning of the danger of the breach reaching a point where “Zionist companies buy land in Medina and properties in Mecca.”
Sayyed Abdul-Malik emphasized the path of dismantling the region’s countries into “small, warring entities” under sectarian, political, and regional titles, noting that “the enemy exploits people’s passion for these titles at a time when they do not engage with the major and sacred causes.”
He referred to the enemy’s exploitation of social media to “turn minor issues into major crises,” creating a troubled reality that distracts the nation and diverts it from greater dangers, and works to “incite tribal conflicts and hasten bloodshed.”
Regarding the direct motives for “Al-Aqsa Flood,” the leader affirmed that the battle was necessary due to the return of Israeli aggression, noting that the enemy entity “fled from Gaza in 2005” after a divine victory but remained spiteful and continued the siege and restrictions.
He explained that before “Al-Aqsa Flood,” there were enemy preparations and statements confirming its orientation towards a new, comprehensive aggression, in addition to its continued violations at Al-Aqsa Mosque and the oppression of prisoners without any horizon for resolving their issue.
“The Palestinian people cannot ignore and forget their prisoners and leave them in the enemy’s prisons under the weight of torture,” he stressed.
He affirmed that the enemy’s goal, in partnership with America, was to fully occupy the Gaza Strip, achieve comprehensive destruction and forced displacement, end the resistance, and recover captives without a prisoner exchange deal. However, the aggression shifted towards “genocide and starvation,” in the “biggest scandal for the Israeli enemy and its supporters.”
He stressed that the Palestinian steadfastness in the Gaza Strip was “great, immense, and unprecedented” in the face of brutality and Arab abandonment, as the people and mujahideen held onto their rights and remained firm despite the opening of avenues for departure.
He confirmed that the enemy “completely failed to decisively conclude the battle despite the American partnership and Western support, and failed to recover captives without a deal, end the resistance, or achieve forced displacement.”
The leader pointed out that the enemy incurred many losses, faced a crisis in human resources, and reached a “quagmire in every sense of the word” over two years. The “crimes committed in Gaza led to a change in the global view of the Israeli entity”; the enemy appeared “to all the peoples and countries of the world in its true, very ugly image as a criminal, savage entity.”
He noted that the crimes created “global resentment among free people and those with a human conscience,” with large popular marches emerging in Europe and America, and “free stances from the governments and leaders of some countries” such as “Venezuela, Colombia, and South Africa.”
“What happened affected the reputation of ‘Israel’ and the United States throughout the world, and the criminal Netanyahu has become ‘wanted even by international courts,’ as a criminal by global consensus.”
He highlighted that the “global resentment towards the Israeli enemy is unprecedented in the history of the conflict,” and pointed to the “American governing institutions that rule and control America,” being “within the Zionist orientation.”
