Yemen's President Ali Abdullah Saleh delivered a speech in a public speaking held at the Security Forces headquarter in Sana'a, pledging to crush a Shiite rebellion in the north as the army pushed on with an offensive against the agitated Sa'ada region launched nine days ago.

He said that the rebel's group enforced the Yemeni government to attack them as they are not obliged to work for their final stages. "The Yemeni authorities were in a mission to root out evil form the country," he added.

We dealt those stray and outlaw groups with kindness and responsibility in order not to hurt those weak and feeble, fooled by those advocates of the "Right Divine", he said.

The Yemeni armies get rid of the secession's attempt, which lasted 67 days and they are also able to destroy the rebels' groups in Sa'ada, he continued.

Over the past four years the government has recruited thousands of northern tribesmen - mainly Zaydis and Salafis who are Sunni to fight against Houthi's rebels, local analyst who spoke in anonymity said, adding that “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” slogans raised up by numbers of youths in some mosques in the capital Sana'a something that worried the authorities.

Since 2004 hundreds of people have been killed and thousands were injured as a result of fighting between Houthi's rebels and the Yemeni army in the northern governorate of Sa'ada.

Observers who took a look at the background to the conflict, and tried to shed light on why it still burning today said that Iranian money used to finance Shiite leaders be the reason.

"The support given to Al-Houthi is only a drop in the ocean of the Iranian infiltration of the Arab region from the Gulf to the ocean," the Elaph news site asserted.
