Xinhuanet: – An al-Qaida-linked group in Yemen warned Tuesday the Yemeni and Saudi majority Sunnis against Shiite Iran’s dangerous plots.

In an audio recording posted on an Islamist website, Mohamed bin Abdul Rahman al-Rashid, one of the Saudi most wanted suspected terrorist, said “Shiite Iran poses an extreme danger to Sunnis of Yemen and Saudi Arabia than Jews or Christians.”

“Driven by a greed to take over Muslim countries, Shiite Iran has long been plotting to install a Hezbollah-like group to occupy areas at the joint-border of Yemen and Saudi Arabia,” al-Rashid added, inciting the Saudi-Yemeni Sunni Muslims to “fight Iran-backed Shiite rebels.”

Yemen’s al Qaeda is coming down on the side of Saudi Arabia and the Yemeni government against the rebels and Iran. That’s an amazing maneuver right there, an al Qaeda statement recruiting for the Yemeni government in the Sa’ada War.
