The Flying Carpet of the President of Yemen
[Yediot Ahronot-Hebrew, 2Apr07] Ron Ben Yishai - Two aircraft, one of which was the personal plane of the President of Yemen, landed in a combat zone in Northern Yemen about six weeks ago and rescued the Jews of Sa'adah from an extremist Shiite organization backed by Iran. The Yemeni Army is having a difficult time suppressing a revolt in the northwest part of Yemen along the Saudi border where an organization made up of Shiite tribes is seeking to establish a religious Shiite state. Iran is supplying massive financial aid and weapons as part of its effort to export the Iranian revolution to other countries in the Middle East.
