President Ali Abdullah Saleh
(This is a Guest Post, I cant even tell you who wrote it. But it certainly is an interesting point of view. I get the most interesting things in the email some days. But mostly very many sad things.)
Do you know Who Ali Abduallah Saleh is ?
In fact the Yemeni president , Ali Abduallah Saleh , is the worst president ever found on the face of the earth , also the biggest liar who has been lying to his citizens ( Yemenis) since he took power more than quarter of a century ago . I am sure he is the only leader who can’t speak his mother tongue properly , for example , it is absolutely hard for him to use relative pronouns correctly , even the names of some Yemeni cities are not pronounced accurately such as Sa’da , a small city , instead of saying Sa’da , he says Sata . what a shame ! a president unable to use his mother tongue properly , a president who has no certificate , no high school , no bachelor degree , master , doctorate , a president with nothing , so what can we expect from such mentality full of darkness ,ignorance , backwardness , literacy , in other words , can a literate and ignorant person lead or rule ten people , let alone a country ? Certainly , it is impossible .
Let’s be frank , the Yemeni president knows nothing about something called economy , politics , industry , trade , diplomacy , such terms never exist in his dictionary and it is more catastrophic to hear his EX mispronounce them in front of university professors , scholars and other highly qualified dignitaries .
Whether you believe it or not , I feel extremely shy whenever I see him speaking publicly , especially in Arab summits where millions of people can watch and listen to him , the only thing I do is I switch TV off and I think many others do the same . I feel shy , because he represents Yemen, represents us as Yemenis , I can’t really imagine how the worst person in Yemen represents us .
If there is a real democracy in Yemen , Ali Abduallah Saleh is not supposed to be a president , rather his real position is to be a car cleaner or a shoe sewer , even such positions need some skills Saleh lacks them . I suggested those two jobs for Saleh not because I want to humiliate him but simply because he doesn’t have any qualifications to handle a respected job .
Let’s now move to the other ugly and rotten side of the so-called Saleh who is believed to be one of the soldiers of Imam Yahya Hamid Aldeen before the 26th September Revolution, 1962 . Mr Saleh used to be the shepherd of the Imam . In fact , Saleh’s origin is unknown due to his mother’s seven marriages , we don’t know for sure whose father is and we don’t know anything about his family , we only know that he has a lot of half brothers , from his mother’s side . what a shame ! a president of Yemen has no origin , no descent , no prestige , no privilege etc , and still ruling this country . It is unbelievable to see Saleh talking about unity , revolution , reunification , solidarity and to know that he was against all these things , to know that he was one of the bodyguards of Imam Hameed Aldeen .It is really shocking news to know that before Saleh took power in 1978 , he was in Taiz city serving as a commander of security and with a title best known as TAEES( in Arabic meaning a male of a goat ) of officers and soldiers and his main job was smuggling drugs and wine . I know you may say that I want to defame him , but believe me that Saleh’s main job in Taiz City was almost known by a large number of Yemenis and still some people remembering him as they were drinking wine together . He was also notorious for providing safety and security for many smugglers of wine and drugs especially those who were working in the Red Sea and bringing in wine and drugs through Moka Port and part of his job was ,besides wine and drugs , in charge of a prostitution centre .
Before I forget , I would like to disclose something entirely important and confidential about Saleh , something may have been unknown to some Yemenis , but I am sure a great deal of Yemeni people , especially the elite , know it very well ; It is about the assassination of the tow former Yemeni presidents , Alhamdi and Alghashmi . It is believed that Saleh was directly involved in both assassinations , then he came to power exactly on July 17th , 1978 and since then he has been ruling Yemen .The first appearance of Saleh on TV , really shocked Yemenis and the world , a man with a face of a criminal and a murderer , with unkempt hair , long moustache , a man who was supposed to be put in prison , became a president of Yemen . What a shame !
Actually Saleh is the first man in Yemen , he possesses everything , the land , people , mountains , buildings ,more or less everything belongs to him . Moreover , he has absolute powers , responsible for everything . He is responsible for appointing a prime minister , ministers , mayors , general managers , university rectors , vice rectors , speaker of parliament , ambassadors , advisory council members .Furthermore , Saleh is Yemen and Yemen is Saleh . Strangely , Saleh has a unique quality which distinguishes him from the rest of all Arab and foreign leaders , it is telling lies , he is the biggest liar in the universe , he is not only lying to his citizens but also to the whole world . He says something on TV and does the opposite on the ground . He always claims that he will fight Israel by throwing it into the sea , at the same time he makes secret ties with Israelis . His second unique quality is his discrepancy , always declaring conflicting statements . Since he took power , Yemen has been deteriorating and getting from bad to worse in all aspects of life , no security , no stability ,no progress ,no prosperity , no law ,no order , at the same time there are all kinds of crimes , diseases , bribes , favoritism , nepotism , increasing cases of committing suicides among citizens , besides poverty , joblessness, homelessness , etc , not exaggerating to say that Yemen is no longer a country but rather a big forest where you can find the law of jungle . The recent visit made by the International World Bank President proved very strongly the miserable conditions that Yemen is going through ,he was quoted as saying ,Yemen is facing disasters because corruption is spreading very fast in all walks of life , adding that if the Yemeni regime does nothing and acts swiftly , no one will help you .Frankly speaking , I need many books to write about all Saleh’s evil life and I am sure I will not finish . As I mentioned before , Saleh possesses Yemen and he acts accordingly . As we all know that Saleh distributes top military , security , and intelligence positions to his sons , brothers , nephews , relatives etc , in other words , Yemen turns into monarchy . Ahmad ,the son of Saleh, is the commander of Special Forces and the strongest personality to succeed him , his nephew Tariq is the commander of the Central Security and Tariq’s brother is the commander of the National Security . Ali Mohsin Alahmar , Saleh’s half brother , is the commander of the North West Region and the second strongest personality to be the successor of Saleh and Ali Saleh Alahmar , Saleh’s brother , is the commander of the Air Forces .
