What was Taken by Force Will only Be Restored by Force
To those who think reasonably in the Arab South I speak, away from religious emotions and nationalistic notions. We should learn from history, before or after 1990 and anywhere on the globe. If we reconsider events of Russian history and how most of its state gained independence and what would the world look like now of Russia remained stable and these nations didn’t make use of weaknesses and strengths during their struggle against this federal state.
Most countries under the Russian flag managed to restore their independence, and nationalistic identity during the weak period of federal Russia. The same could be said about some African countries. I think many of those who talk emotionally will disagree with this article but this doesn’t bother me as long as my article will serve the interests of our people. Unification of our people behind a unified political leadership represented by the Southern Transitional Council, especially in this critical stage, against Yemeni regimen is a must to restore our land history and national identity. Only then the whole world, not just the United Nations, will listen to us and respond to the demands and will of this nation who suffered for more than a quarter of century.
The world only listens to power and those who enforce de facto politics. Those who stick to peaceful struggle and statements but nothing else will receive nothing from the world as the world is a massive jungle.
We should be reasonable and preserve the souls of our young people who were sent to a ridiculous that we had nothing to do with. Battel of the south is not in Al-Hodeida or Saada. The real sacred battel of the south is to defend the south, land and people, that suffered and is still suffering these massive risks.
We demand our southern leaderships to make the best use of this Yemeni/Yemeni conflict and not to support either sides. We should work cunningly on feeding this conflict to on ending it. It is not the interest of the south to overthrow Al-Houthis while we are paving the way to presidency palace for Muslim Brotherhood and Saleh’s ousted regimen. Southern leaderships should serve only southern interests as the overthrowing of one side of this conflict will never serve the supreme interests of the south. Political leaderships should play with all winning cards and work on this conflict while they are rearranging the house from inside and establish an integrated southern army that work for restoring southern soil by military force. What was taken by force will only be restored by force. Any thing else is a waste of time.
