بالتراجع عن دعم "عاصفة الحزم".. باكستان تخذل السعودية وتخدم إيران

By abandoning the support of "Storm of Determination"
Pakistan is abandoning Saudi Arabia and serving Iran.

منذ بداية عاصفة الحزم، أعلنت باكستان دعمها الكامل للملكة العربية السعودية، وسط تردد الأنباء بين الحين والآخر عن مشاركتها الفعلية بقوات عسكرية، إلا أن إسلام آباد كانت تنفي في كل مرة مشاركتها عسكريًا، وأن كانت تدعم أرض الحرمين، وأنها على أتم استعداد لبذل كافة جهودها للزود عنها.ـ

Since the beginning of the "Storm of Determination" Pakistan proclaimed its total support of Saudi Arabian [rule] and [then raised incertainty with] news that changed from one moment to the other, from [Pakistan's] practical cooperation with military force [to the position] that Islamabad should anyway refuse each time its military cooperation, and that it should support territories in misery and should prepare for [concentrating] all of its efforts on providing food for them.

Storm of Determination: Evidence for Iranian training of Houthis and their arming.

كما جدد التأكيد على وجود أدلة تدين إيران بدعم الحوثيين وتدريبهم، وعدم استبعاد وجود إيرانيين يقاتلون إلى جانب الميليشيات الحوثية.ـ

Renewed confirmation of the existence of witnesses [or: indicators] swearing that Iran supports Houthis and trains them. The presence of Iranians who are fighting side by side with Houthi militias cannot be excluded.

Editor's Note:
Sheikh Sayyid Abdul-Malik al-Houthi (born January 1st, 1982- dead 12 april 2015) was a leader of the Zaidi Shia movement Ansar Allah (Houthis). His brothers Yahia Badreddin al-Houthi and Abdul-Karim Badreddin Al-Houthi are also leaders of the group, as was his late brother Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi. Houthi addressed the nation on Yemen TV in a late-night speech on 20 January 2015 after troops loyal to him seized the presidential palace and attacked the private residence of President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi in Sana'a. He demanded Hadi implement reforms giving the Houthi movement more control over the government. Although it was initially reported that Hadi conceded to Houthi's demands, the president resigned from office on 22 January, saying the political process had "reached a dead end".
