For all intents and purposes Yemen’s Resistance movement has now shrunk
to one faction, one position, one political line: that held by the
Houthis. If Yemen’s political landscape
has been streamlined to one powerful consensus, the nation’s future has

people may have thought of former President, beyond the many grave
allegations levelled against his regime, and those powers he helped
propped over the decades, Saleh nevertheless held in his hands the
promise of a political settlement.
