February 11 is not a project for permanent hostility

February 11 was not a project for fighting, so some people should take it as a project for permanent hostility.

It was a project to remind people of the necessity of turning Yemen into a “homeland,” and we all know that this goal has its conditions that everyone should participate in achieving practically, and that it has its reasons without which no country can be stable and prosperous.

What does it mean that successive regimes have failed to transform this country into a homeland? This is what February had to seek an answer to!!

Therefore, his supporters and opponents alike must look to the future, and remember today, in the midst of the events that are sweeping Yemen, that February brought them together in a general dialogue conference as a station to rationalize the national political project, dismantle the painful links in the ruling systems that were based on domination, and search for an answer to the same question, and to achieve the conditions for transforming Yemen into a “homeland.”

It must be said that had it not been for this event that shook society to its core, allowing for the exploration of the problem at the root of the oppressive systems that Yemen has been afflicted with, which began to reshape the republic outside of its values, this important variable in the lives of Yemenis (the dialogue) would not have been achieved, and would not have investigated the root of the problem of governance in which the relationship between the private and the public was problematic, and in which the relationship between authority and the state was ambiguous.

He could not have arrived at what could be considered a new social contract, which despite the arbitrary interventions that have befallen it, is still valid in its basic outlines for building a national state that accommodates everyone, a state run by a democratic system that allows for the production of solutions to the outstanding problems, based on respect for the political choices of the people, and far from the tools of domination that have destroyed every opportunity for stability in this country.

Today, there is no real unifying force for the forces that are confronting the catastrophe that the Iranian-Houthi sectarian ideological project has inflicted on Yemen other than adhering to the results and spirit of this great unifying force.

This event, unlike other experiences of social tensions in the region and the major political events that accompanied it, was unique in transforming the conflict into national understandings at the most violent stages of the call for political change.

Overcoming all attempts to drag him into violence by the extremist wings within the parties of the equation, which had their own calculations towards each other as intertwined social and political structures of a system founded on intertwined interests, which confirms the solidity of that peaceful project that adhered to the idea that political disagreement can be resolved through dialogue, openness, understanding, concessions, and respect for the popular will and its choices.

Unlike those forces that began to divide society with dogmatic and sectarian tools that contain violence, revenge, discrimination, arrogance, exclusion, and rejection of others, and everything that places society on the brink of unrest, permanent disputes, wars, and instability.

Today, the state of division witnessed by the forces that life has placed on the right side of history cannot be viewed as anything other than a response to calls for hostility, the facts of which have recorded events that are outdated, with the existential challenges they have generated for a people who have always dreamed of their country becoming a homeland, and who now dream of a shelter that protects them from the torments of homelessness.
