Nasrallah ridiculed

The incendiary statements of Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah have invited derision from Yemenis who say the isolated Houthis have no one to speak for them inside Yemen.
Nasrallah spewed venom for the third time since the launch of Operation Decisive Storm and attacked the Kingdom and the Gulf states. He defended Iran and its ally, the Houthis.
He presented himself as a representative of the Yemeni people.
Nasrallah’s statements and his defense of Iranian interference in Yemen, Syria and other Arab countries, have turned him into a hate figure in the Arab world.
Journalist Ghamdan Al-Yousfi said Nasrallah’s speeches were aimed at raising the morale of the defeated Houthis.
“His speeches indicate that the Houthis have no one to speak for them inside Yemen so they hired a Lebanese Houthi to speak on their behalf,” said Al-Yousfi. “Nasrallah is serving Iran’s expansionist goals.”
Yemeni activist Naseem Abdul Salam said Nasrallah’s sectarianism and his brazen declaration in defense of the Houthi coup confirmed the core separatist purpose of his speeches.
