When racism is murder and terrorism

SMA NEWS – ADEN THE CAPITAL
By\ Saleh Abu Odal
To the village of “Kitab” in the Yemeni governorate of Ibb, the young Hosni Ali Talib Al-Tusali Al-Awlaki (thirty years old), accompanied by three of his sons (Ali Hosni (16 years old), Hydra Hosni (14 years old), Ahmed Hosni (12 years old), and Hadi Mohsen Sanad (11 years old), they went there for beekeeping, more than a thousand bee sticks transported by the young man and his sons, as was the custom to transport “bee sticks”, from one place to another, in search of the “Al-Magani.”
On Friday the 10th of June, Hosni’s sons were on their way from the market returning to their father’s tent, and their loading car “Dinah” wheel happened to pass over a water pipe and broke it, so the sons went down to apologize for what happened and promised that they would tell their father to come to repair the pipe. ”
There was a son of a tribal sheikh and a security director, with a group of gunmen, one of them started shooting one of the sons in his “lower abdomen”, his brother took him to his father, who was sitting in his tent, with their other brother, but the tribal sheikh came with his sons and immediately started shooting at the tent and those in it, and there was an exchange of shooting fire that led to the killing of the tribal sheikh and his son. Hosni took his wounded son to treat his wounds, so armed men from Al Salah tribe and security elements followed him and shot them, which led to the rollover of the carrying car of Hosny “the Dinah”, and then they killed his son, a child under the age of 15, and wounded another one who is still in intensive care.
A crime like this reveals the regional tendency and Yemeni racism towards “all southerners.” This tribal sheikh did not know that these people are considered guests of his tribe and that they came not to take over the land or loot it, and that they will leave to another region, but the racist tendency was controlling him and his decision to kill his guests who believe they are in the protection of authentic Yemeni tribes.
The Al-Awlak tribe had “rational” positions regarding the incident, in a statement issued by Sheikh Lahmar bin Lasoud Al-Awlaki, they called for the arbitration of another tribe as a neutral party to discuss the merits of the case and solve it according to the accepted tribal customs, and asked only to allow the transfer of the body of the victim, the young man Hosni Al-Tusali and his sons “the wounded and the kidnapped,” but the Al Salah tribes imposed a security and tribal siege around the region of the incident, threatening to escalate against everyone who belongs to Shabwa.
I followed up on some statements issued by the Yemeni Bakil tribes, which the “Al Salah” tribe is one of its groups, and all positions have appeared “arrogant racist”, and stressed that the issue is going towards more and more escalation, and the Al-Awlak tribes have not taken any action, and allowed any tribal mediation to solve the problem, but racism and arrogance, but those of “Bakil” rejects all tribal mediation and insists on arresting wounded and children under the age of fifteen and throwing them in prisons, and refuse to allow any visit to them by their families.
This crime did not anger human rights activists or local Yemeni organizations, because the perpetrator is a “Yemeni tribe”, and the victim is a southern citizen whose only fault is that he went to search for pastures for bees only, he did not go to seize the sources of oil nor loot agricultural and residential lands. This killing is based on a racial and regional basis. Some press scum and social media activists did not see it, and the reason was, as I indicated to them, “the killer is from Yemen and the one killed is from the South.” Killing, kidnapping and terrorizing children under the age of 15, the youngest of whom is only 11 years old, Hadi Mohsen Sanad. There is no power or strength but only by Allah Almighty
