It seems like everyone and their mother (including myself)
penned a response to influential American scholar Shaykh
Hamza Yusuf's claim in a viral video that Muslim's in the
Middle East are "not ready" to fight off their oppressors.
But the best rejoinder came from the barefooted Yemeni
Resistance, which, less than a week later, shockingly set
ablaze the world's biggest oil refinery Aramco in Saudi
Arabia, running up oil prices 18% and pushing down
major stock markets in one swift move.
The poorest Arab country, Yemen has produced a strong
resistance movement despite suffering death, devastation,
and starvation after a coalition led by Saudi Arabia, along
with the United Arab Emirates (U.A.E.), started bombing
and blockading the Yemenis four years ago for overthrowing
a repressive Saudi-backed regime.
The fearless Yemeni Resistance has also warned the U.A.E.
of missile strikes on their port city of Dubai if they don't
pack up and leave their country.
Guess who lives part-time in the U.A.E. working
on a government-sponsored "peace forum"?
Shaykh Hamza Yusuf!
Now, tell me, who needs to get "ready"?
